User Reviews

Social injustice - Poverty Drugs love Loyalty

This movie portrays a typical life of many which is hidden from public views. It is not easy to make a movie like this in Iran in general.

Peyman Moaadi 's character is a dedicated and loyal officer who is endangering his personal life to drag down a drug dealer. It feels like Mr. Roustaee has lived the life of a drug dealer, drug addict, and a narcotic officer.

The movie tries to show the grey area of the Moaadi s peer, playing games. The act of a faithful and lucky friend with the cell phone in the jail, who had instant connection with Naser; was strange. The barn attack was rushed not well developed. Not sure what was the reason that all the prisoners let out of the cells and were banging the fence/bars and creating chaos? Was it a set up for a scape or what? Some scenes were too long and could be easily slashed down.

In this movie the strong act by Peyman Moaadi stands out. It is also touching the sad and dark life of a drug dealers,addicts, and narcotic officers. This movie stays in mind for a while and does not end by just leaving the movie theater. The legal process is almost the same and jail is real - not a set up.
