First 30 min cinematography throughout the climbing sequences is fantastic, and pretty much every scene convinces that the action is really taking place high up in some frightening locations. Next part movies kick ass entry into the survival horror genre.

Asghar Farhadi’s visually undistinguished but affecting Beautiful City, a simple film about the power of forgiveness. Neither unremitting nor detached, it represents something of an anomaly for the Iranian film.

[shreeux]

Asghar Farhadi's first feature film is fairly standard. It's pretty devoid of his writing trademarks which mark him as a world class director. The story is decent enough but far too simple and needlessly stretched.
