Taxi

"An essential film of the year, if not the decade. That it's a thoroughly exciting, entertaining and ingenious work of cinema elevates it to the company of all-time greats." 

"Another playful yet profound musing on the intersection of life and art. (...) The result is a film of quiet but profound outrage, laughing on the surface, but howling in anger just beneath." 

"Unexpectedly warm, teasing and eye-opening (...) Jafar Panahi continues his personal and artistic resistance struggle against the Iranian film authorities" 

"It is not as angry and painful as his previous work, the samizdat This Is Not a Film, but it is subtle, humorous and humane (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of five)" 

"This is a delightful surprise, and though it is even more minimalistic than his last two illegal exports, it is also more mature, and better calibrated and more entertaining than the other two. (...) Panahi offers a priceless cinematic lesson."
