Stephen Dalton Hollywood Reporter As a rousing rebuke to patriarchal power, Masud's assured debut mostly hits the target, even if the overall package feels clumsy and simplistic in places. Nov 4, 2017 Full Review Simran Hans Observer (UK) The action scenes are awkwardly choreographed and difficult to follow, further hindered by frequent flashbacks that interrupt the pace of the film. Rated: 2/5 Sep 17, 2017 Full Review Louise Busfield Little White Lies Most striking ... is the way Masud portrays strong independent women overcoming their struggles in this patriarchal society. Rated: 3/5 Sep 15, 2017 Full Review Laura Davis One Room With A View My Pure Land is a glorious paean to the strength of female resistance. Rated: 4/5 Mar 1, 2019 Full Review Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf My Pure Land, [Masud's] first feature, shows he is a talent to watch. Rated: 4/5 Oct 18, 2018 Full Review Qamar Shafiq Geeks of Color [My Pure Land] deserves to be seen if only to highlight the importance of being an empowered and independent woman in a deeply patriarchal society.
