The opening quote that explains the film is attributed to Mark Twain: "History doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes."

This winner of Best Film and Best Actor awards at the Venice film festival's Horizon section, and the Special Jury Prize at the Tokyo International film festival has bagged 13 awards world-wide to-date. It is an unusual film from Iran; yet, if you stay to the end, it could be rewarding. It is a film about love of a widower for a prostitute in Iran. How the conservative Iranian censors allowed the film with such a subject to be made is surprising. The script involves the shooting of a film within the film that deals with Hitler and the Holocaust (again an unusual subject for an Iranian to make in Iran)!

Although I love Iranian movies, I have to admit that I am not impressed. It lasts too long and in every minute you can't see any shiny sparkle. Even though the main actor is good, the story is a bit weak. I know, it is the story of a poor middle-aged man who struggles to survive poverty and who loses hope to live blaming all around, even those who are giving him a chance, but it should be packed in less time. The only thing which can help in seeing the entire film project is its cinematography. After watching it you will have a bitter taste and the thought that you watched someone's misfortune, and in any case you didn't want to watch it.

The movie World War III by Homan saydi states a law; Anyone with any characteristics in the situation and conditions of any person acts like that person.

World War III comes out of World War II The structure of the film is similar to the structure of the atom, which has a nucleus inside itself, and the most mass is concentrated in the nucleus of the film. In the forest, when the set is being built, the mirrors give the news of the reflection of the world inside the core of the film to the outside, which means that the disaster is going to come out of the core. Shakib turns World War II into World War III in Hitler's cover. In order to prove that he can be the author, Homan Sidi has done the production, directing, writing and editing of the film, and also by choosing the topic of paying homage to authors such as Chaplin, Spielberg, Tarantino, he has shown the theme and color of his film. Sometimes it reminds me of Tarkovsky's film Mirror and There Will Be Blood by Paul Thomas Anderson.

It's not easy to watch I don't like this type of movie and decided to leave it several times but I didn't.

Only some people enjoy watching these movies and those people are film critics.

The story is not complicated, at the beginning everything is normal, and then something will happen that concerns main character, it goes by and continue the same system till the end.

Fortunately it has a satisfying ending. Even though I don't recommend it to watch.

If I wanted to describe it in a sentence I would say: When you spend enough time with evil (or in this case evils) soon you learn to become one.

Why do Iranians make beautiful dramas? World War III is one of the best Iranian movies produced in recent years. The acting was convincing. Premiered a few months ago in Venice's Orizzonti strand, where it won Best Film and Best Actor. The same festival also unveiled "No Bears," from Seyedi's embattled compatriot Jafar Panahi: To say that Iran has a fraught relationship with some of its most revered filmmakers would be putting it extremely lightly. While Seyedi isn't as overtly political here as the likes of Panahi, he's still quite bold: One hopes his film will receive Stateside distribution. Whether censored or celebrated by its government, daring work like this deserves to be seen by the widest audience possible. Don't miss out watching this movie.
