Review of Offside (2015) by Dan A — 15 May 2009
While Jafar Panahi is not on the same level with Kiarostami or Makhmalbaf, I think he knows how to grab global attention to his work. In a good way he succeeded to westernize the Iranian filmmaking and made an authentic look into the Iranian society.
This is not a perfect film, yet it's a very good introduction to the great Iranian cinema. It may look girlish and like most Iranian films the characters look naive, but it's Simple, honest and definitely entertaining .
.and I SWEAR TO God IT IS NOT BORING AT ALL .
