there's nothing stylish here; no beautiful cinematography or amazing shots that takes ones breath away.. the attraction here is the characters and the way they are built throughout to lead us to their actions; one example is when Nadir, the lead, sends his daughter to return the tip back from the gas station worker, because it simply isn't fair.. this kind of character establishment indicates and assumes a lot of what is to come. the storytelling and the story in itself are extremely enthralling and gripping, addressing, but never allowing for a definitive statement on its subtly raised themes, truth, honesty and the characters' self-interest. the story is tangled up and weaved real intricately, causing the characters to be in difficult and challenging moral positions. however, to me, the film was perfect in the first two thirds in its course, until it took a slight turn away from where i was hoping it would continue. nevertheless, the film ultimately handled itself laudably till end.

A Separation is a pretty decent movie, Very well made! The performances are brilliant by the entire cast. The story is not very focused on the TOPIC but its done on purpose, to get the attention of the audience. "ugly truth,sweet lies"..... The story is pretty interesting and the script is also written wisely.The movie has a limited budget but it is exceptional business all over the world.... No doubt it will be getting attention in the award season and I hope it gets better recognition. The best part of the movie is its end. Its painful and heartbreaking ...... and that is where I got the idea of the movie when I thought of every thing as a child and I was glad they ended it this way... 7.5 by me .... very good movie.

This movie won the 2011 Oscar for "Best Foreign Film", but really it should have won the Best Picture, as it was easily far better than "The Artist" or any of the other nominees that year. Instead it wasn't even nominated. WTF? From a completely prosaic and quotidian premise, we are treated to the unfolding of a wonderfully nuanced and complex morality tale. This is one of the very rare gems, where if I tried to describe to you what the movie was about, I'd just completely fail to impress you in any way, and yet you'd be blown away when you actually watch it. Just bloody hell watch it already if you haven't. The acting was also OUTSTANDING. From everyone. Even the teenage daughter.

Well this got a lot of hype. Top 200 movie of all time. Glowing reviews. Something like 96 on Rotten Tomato. But a foreign film and the subject matter didn't' exactly look to be all that exciting. It looked like it had the potential of being a boring politically correct Hollywood foreign film Sundance snoozefest. Subtitles. For the first 35 minutes it sure looked that way. Then things started to get interesting and it was nonstop the rest of the way through. Boy what a great movie this was. Worth every inch the praise it got. Great, great movie. Great acting. Great plot. Seemed very real. Didn't even notice the subtitles.

Wow, oh ho. That's how it's done, boys. Simply breath taking. Is easily one of the best films I've seen in the last 6 months or so. There are many layers in it, is indeed a complex story. But is all told with cleverness. Also, the twists were very awesome. And what is more interesting, perhaps, is the fact that most of the film is left to the viewer's interpretation(since we don't have the facts per see), so therefore you have to ask yourself "who is wrong" and "what really happened?" All in vain, since in the reality what will count is in what you believe and what are your beliefs. I regret the fact I didn't watch this film earlier. Is certainly the best film of 2011, and now one of my favorites. An easy 9.8/10.

This film is about an Iranian woman who asks for divorce from her husband, and its resultant repercussions. "A Separation" starts off very intense, as the woman fiercely battles for a divorce in front of a judge. She does not fear the authority, even if the culture and social norms are against her. This remarkable opening is impressive, and I can safely say that this momentum is maintained throughout the rest of the film The plot is followed by a battle of morality and self interest. The two couples concerned all react differently to the situation, sparking an interesting character analysis. What seemingly decent individuals would do to protect their honour and self interest, and how far desperate individuals would fight for perceived justice. These complex character portrayals are so engrossing and through provoking. There is not a moment of slack. The ending twist is surprising, and adds to the brilliance of this film. "A Separation" is a must watch film.
