Stillwater (2021)
Watch it for Matt Damon's performance
It's got a predictable plot and I think it was meant to be this way. Matt is playing a fairly common fella and his decisin making in life should not contain much surprises. What stands out most is Matt's performance as a roughneck, it has been a long time I truly connected with a character, felt him for real. I will watch it again just for this.
Fasle kargadan (2012)
Style over content!!!
This movie is a clear example of style over content. I don't mind watching these type of movies, but in this case it doesn't make any sense! Movie tackles the subject of Iranian political prisoners, something that has barely made it to the screen and Ghobadi decided to waste this opportunity by a poor script and rely on symbolism.
I also don't understand why he has cast two great actors, Monica Bellucci and Yilmaz Erdogan, for Persian speaking characters. An actor should be able to say the lines fluently without weird accent. If not, even best actors will deliver poor performances.
