A movie about a British-Iranian journalist covering the 2009 Iranian election who gets caught up in the crackdown on protesters and journalists in its aftermath. A moving film with a surprising amount of humour, made even more awesomer by the appearance of Lindsey Hilsum. Mon the HILSUM!
Very true to the book, I liked that they kept Death as the narrator.
Much Ado About Nothing was like an awesomerocket right into my brain.
Mama was okay. Reckon I’ll be able to sleep tonight.
It’s not really the plot that’s the problem, it’s that you see so much of Mama. In the trailer, it’s a shadow, a hint. Nothing is as scary when you just see it full on in the light. The first half of the film, before really see Mama is the scariest.
Amazing, moving, brutal, grim and powerful film. Well worth seeing, I highly recommend you get yourself to the next showing.
