The Seed of the Sacred Fig Reviews

This film is so good omg...

Long mais feel pas long. La fin est goofy c’est un peu décevant

3.5/5

The director here uses a family dynamic to skillfully mirror Iran’s political climate. I love how it uses real footage from protests in between the fictional storytelling. It’s not a perfect film but this political thriller will have your eyes glued to the screen.

Sometimes its a little slow, but it is highly recommended

cool elements and tight build up that derail comically at the end sequence: they aimed at terminator but ended up hitting tom and jerry. political elements such as the films vision of irans predicament on the international stage also sound very propagandy after the us bombings

near 3 hours long yet it's neither slow nor boring. other than occasionally pausing and pacing back and forth cuz of how anxious i felt at times, i was glued to my seat. did not like the tom and jerry sitch towards the end, but knowing what Rasoulof was going through it's excused

Knowing the context of the creation of this and the current status of all the cast and crew made this movie mind blowing

the ending scene felt a bit goofy but as a whole the movie was very good, paranoia and stress inducing. central story made for a imaginative metaphor.

So many emotions

i was interested at first but then it was too long and i didn’t like the turn the story took

8.5/10

Very tense and gripping despite its length

The film, although almost three hours long, escapes boredom and generates a lot of stress and disbelief due to the story and the way it tells how a family man can change at any moment and become a very dangerous enemy, and all for not Pay attention to where you leave things.

A great film with a lot of powerful things to say. I will admit that I think it was a little heavy handed at times in its structure, but that doesn’t take away from the genuinely phenomenal messages. They’re all presented with strong filmmaking and passion. Please see this.

No cause experiencing this LIVE was sooo traumatizing and heartbreaking. #WomanLifeFreedom

Un peu long mais très intéressant
