Audience Member very intriguing story indeed ! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a must seen movie for everyone who asks about the nature of love.. It's a very vivid poetic movie which a lot of people may not like. Mohsen Makhmalbaf's masterpiece is about a 40 years old man on his birthday talking to his girlfriends trying to explain how he gathered the love of them all at the same time. the music is really touching , the scene of the sad city in winter , the car and the candles.. everything in this movie makes you feel sad and involved , and however enjoying! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member It's neither sex, nor philosophy ! and i found it a waste of time! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I wonder how long Makhmalbaf can go on making movies full of pretentious rhetoric which strive to talk about very serious philosophical issues but do not make sense at all. Here the philosophy is nothing more than some preaching monologues by a narcissist man who acts as if he is the embodiment of wisdom while they are evident at best and nonsense at worst. I admit there are some extremely beautiful pictures here but isn't a movie something more than a sequence of beautiful pictures? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member So beautiful, challenging, absurd, surreal story line, so poetic...and I loved the music! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member it has a deep philisophical message but i don't really appreciate the movie as a "Makhmalbaf's work" Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
