Review of The Stoning of Soraya M. (2009) by Sebastian D — 14 Mar 2010
Shohreh Aghdashloo may be a celebrated actress, but her performance was disastrous here & a constant distraction which I tried to overlook, but couldn't.
Movie on the whole is watchable, the execution being quite ordinary. I won't specifically recommend it as it failed to live up to my expectations (I think I must admit here that my expectations were high since its supposedly based on a true story of miscarriage of justice & I'm a sucker for such movies).
Mind it, I'm rating the movie here, & not its intention. Besides, I appreciate it if the intention was to let the world know what's going on in some remote corner, but don't we all already know it???
