Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Pooneh Asgari I love this movie as a psychologist. That's because Iranian movies barely introduce psychologists as helpful individuals. Iranian movies and directors usually make fun of psychologists and consider them superstitious and non useful! Mrs Milani like always supports women's rights in Iran in her brilliant movies and that's awesome. I only wish that were more elaboration about psychological aspects of the story however I know it would make the movie very long. So it's not possible to include that much of psychological info in a movie. besides the casts did a great job. Anyway I'm so proud of Mrs Milani. hope she can make more and more movies...
hpcpq2001 Here are my issues with this movie: 1. They copied the concept of the movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" - In fact, it came out one year after Mr. & Mrs. Smith.2. The acting is horrible. Nobody speaks like these people do and their expressions are third-rate at best. This is a reflection on the director's inability to direct. She probably needs to come off her high horse and study this art a bit more before going forward.3. The spoken words in this movie are at times incorrect. This includes expressions and regular sentences. It seems as though the screenplay was not reviewed properly.I wish these bad actors and the horrible director lots of luck!
stargazer86 i watched this movie a week ago. The story line is simple, and meanwhile complicated.a young couple is at the point of divorce over disagreements on just about everything in their relationship. by chance the wife(Afshar) ends up at the office of a psychiatrist instead of a lawyer and from there the story begins and we get flash backs of events from day 1 of the couple meeting each other to the day she left her house to catch an appointment with a lawyer. It is a nice comedy and well worth watching. there are a lot of good points in the story and to tell the truth its a fairly accurate picture of what marriages are like now-a-days: people rushing into marriage after the first date, and then starting a game of cat and mouse with each other. if you are into young couple comedies(sort of like the breakup, but A lot better) and want a good laugh out of life's most embarrassing moments, then this movie is just the right thing for you. enjoy!
jerry4444 Instead of tackling difficult issues like battle of the sexes, emancipation of women, equal rights of both genders in the society and marital problems through a serious and no-nonsense manner, the Iranian director (who is also an architect), Tahmineh Milani chose to approach these matters through a comedy. It was her intention to do so, as she said it herself when the movie was introduced in her presence. The movie delves around Sayeh, a successful and strong-willed female engineer who was on her way to file for divorce from her chaotic marriage with the equally confident and chauvinistic husband, Yousef.Instead of finding the lawyer who was supposed to handle the divorce, she ended up in the office of a therapist who convinced her (and later the husband) to try to work things out and get in touch with their "inner child". Between comical flashbacks and humorous affairs with family and friends, this movie succeeded in dealing with the touchy problems of this beautiful couple's marital life in a light and entertaining manner. But can the marriage still be salvaged? Or did they go their separate ways? Find out for yourself and listen to your "inner child", watch this beautiful movie, which was already a box office hit in its home country, Iran.
