Audience Member Dull. The movie tries desperately to be sensational, but contains very little new or original Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Very comprehensive coverage of the 1953 coupe in Iran. It could answer my question and curiosity about what exactly happened back then. Nice work! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A brilliant movie about a very sensitive subject. As a long time researcher about the 1953 coup, I didn't expect to be surprised at all, but this movie brought up so much testimony and archival evidence that it belongs in a whole different category of documentary. I was reminded of The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (2003). The depth of description of the crucial months and years leading up, during and after the coup is really remarkable. I learned tons. I really can't say enough about this movie. If you have the chance, watch it! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member What a timely reminder of the perils of meddling, especially with a cynical, mercenary and racist intent. The pace and tension of this film build beautifully, no small feat when you consider the reams and reams of paper-based detective work that lie at its heart. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An absolutely essential watch, superbly done. Highly recommend this movie to those who want to understand a great part of the true underlying reasons for the belligerent dynamics of the world today. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member An exceptional documentary made based on official sensitive documents that Mr. Amirani had permission to access. You will see how he accessed every information he used to make this thrilling documentary. An art work that illuminates on dark sections of history which are crucial for global peace.
