This was probably the only movie in 2011 that made me go, "Oh my God this is so good, I need to tell everyone I know to watch it."

Magnificent film. Astounding in every department and also very entertaining. Sounds like the best movie of 2011 to me.

I think the best thing I can say about A Separation, is that this is a humane film. Not a character appeared whose humanity was not respected and therefore, so is the viewer's.

I went into this with astronomically high expectations. So I do feel let down after seeing this. I’m severely underwhelmed

Four-way societal quandary with regard for each viewpoint; sympathizes with peripheral characters feeling ripple effects: a coworker, a daughter, a judge, and others who witness, referee, and pass judgment over this life-altering dispute.
