Mozaffari has delivered a film bold, bittersweet, beautiful, and undeniably brilliant. That she's down this fresh out the gate is even more remarkable.

Variety

Mozaffari has an incredible eye for the details that bring a situation or place to life, working with inexperienced actors to create electrifying characters and a sense of edgy unpredictability.

[Firecrackers] sizzles with the promise of a confident voice behind the camera.

An exciting debut feature, brimming with visceral energy that never allows its characters to take the easy way out.

Rated: 3/5

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

It does tread familiar territory, but it manages to freshen it in a really exhilarating way.

Hubby and Wife date afternoon theatre provides a well developed and strong finishing 'Firecrackers'. It's well done and it works and it's short and it's simple. Jasmin Mozaffari extends her short film into a feature length feature and Michaela Kurimsky and Karena Evans use a fantastic chemistry to tell a slow burn tale that is a tidy coming of age drama. Believable and authentic, Mozaffari does a great job fleshing out his two main characters so we eventually can root for them. Give this one a chance! Hubby: 7.7/Wife: 7.1 Average: 7.3/10

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

I didn't think that it lived up to the description. I never saw the night of vandalism, and the supporting cast was weak !!!
