Review of Ten (2002) by Daniel A — 18 May 2011
Equal parts dull and utterly rivetting, Ten is a real paradox of a movie that shouldn't work on any level but in fact soars on almost every level. Kiarostami proves once again that he's fearless behind the lens, crafting a fascinating and totally unique experience that is a must-see for any fan of cinema as art.
Following one woman as she drives across modern Tehran and engages with a variety of different passengers, this is an intriguing character study that sees incredible performances from Mania Akbari and her on-screen son Amin Maher, who plays one of the most naturally manipulative children the big-screen has ever seen.
