I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
It could have been better. What should have been a good doc for fans of the film, The Colour of Pomegranates, unfortunately only turns out to be mediocre.Allot of it is ruined by speakers whose grasp of the English language is barely audible. The sound of their voice could also have been improved during the recording, or in post production. Made it unfortunately hard to enjoy.It also does contain some interesting info on the behind the scenes politics of filmmaking in the SU. AndHowever it's still interesting for fans of the film and worth checking out. Just make sure you have your finger on the volume button.
