The Badger

An Iranian thriller written and directed by Kazem Mollaie that manages to keep the viewer's interest from beginning to end and even finishes surprisingly, in the best Hollywood style.

It is a genre film, whose main virtue is to fulfill what it promises, entertainment and emotion for the spectator. There are no great lessons or philosophies to be drawn from this, unless there are, in fact, characteristics that run in the family.

Iranian cinema has evolved a lot and this film is proof that it also knows how to make cinema for the general public, not just for the circuit of auteur film festivals.

I like the script and cinematography of the movie. And the sound design and music are perfect. With featuring a powerhouse performance by Iranian actress Vishka Asayesh.
