Review of The Past

The Past (2013)
8/10
Great movie. But not as surprising as a separation and About Elly
27 June 2013
I liked it. I couldn't leave the chair in cinema. Like other Asghar Farhadi movies, it was full of questions. But something is missing here...

I gave 9 of 10 to this movie, because all of the great things that made a separation and about Elly a great thriller is missing here. The past didn't surprise me like a separation and about Elly. So I couldn't give 10.( I gave a separation and about Elly 10 ) When I was watching a separation and about Elly, It was like that I am detective. Because I could see what is happening. In the past everything is happened and we didn't see. We just watch the result of those events. So it made it a little boring. I think if Asghar Farhadi showed us the events and then the result of it (like a separation and about Elly),it would be better and more amazing. But if he did that, the name of the movie couldn't be the past, I think. However, besides this point, it's a great movie and I totally recommend it. About the actors and actresses, I have to say that they had a powerful acting. Especially Ali Mossafa in Ahmad role. ( I liked Ahmad a lot.) and the boy who plays Fouad role.It was very good. And after this movie I am a big fan of Tahar Rahim too.
