La loi de Téhéran

This portrait of a fringe of Iranian society is powerful, a thriller that thwarts conventional criteria to make it a real great movie where we go through all possible human emotions. For me a masterpiece.

This movie portrays a typical life of many which is hidden from public views. It is not easy to make a movie like this in Iran in general.

Peyman Moaadi 's character is a dedicated and loyal officer who is endangering his personal life to drag down a drug dealer. It feels like Mr. Roustaee has lived the life of a drug dealer, drug addict, and a narcotic officer.

The movie tries to show the grey area of the Moaadi s peer, playing games. The act of a faithful and lucky friend with the cell phone in the jail, who had instant connection with Naser; was strange. The barn attack was rushed not well developed. Not sure what was the reason that all the prisoners let out of the cells and were banging the fence/bars and creating chaos? Was it a set up for a scape or what? Some scenes were too long and could be easily slashed down.

In this movie the strong act by Peyman Moaadi stands out. It is also touching the sad and dark life of a drug dealers,addicts, and narcotic officers. This movie stays in mind for a while and does not end by just leaving the movie theater. The legal process is almost the same and jail is real - not a set up.

The story line was perfect , you cant predict the next sentence. the message of this movie was clear. the actors were powerful. the filming was great. and director used everything very well.

Initially, one can easily point out that the film's style is realistic because it depicts the lives of two segments of the drug addict community (also drug dealers) and policemen in the maze of the law road against the distribution, consumption and, of course, drug production. . The script doesn't show any flaws, and a detailed schedule is arranged for each sequence, and the arrangement of the various scripts was very clean and meticulous, captivating the viewer and the milestones so breathtaking that they acted in the auditorium. The cinema needed drinking water, which of course had a very effective effect on the film. Another factor that can be said to be a factor in the success of the film is the correct casting. For example, Maadi's pact was so well-suited to his role that if you didn't know he was an actor you would probably have two guesses that he was a successful cop. And to top it off, the filming and coding and visualization of the cameraman were so clean that it was impossible to overlook the cinema. And last but not least, I would like to commend Mr. Rural for his strong work that has won the popular vote at the Fajr Film Festival while waiting for people to go to the cinema rather than to promote culture

A very strong film with a theme unlike all other Iranian films we have seen which focus mostly on personal issues in a changing -and not changing- society. The thematic is the millions of drug addicts in Iran and the fight of a few policemen to control it. The violence used by the police force is appalling as a paling are the conditions hundreds or thousands of homeless drug addicts live in. Also the personal stories of the two policemen in charge create doubts as to their integrity. Questions as where the state and social services are arise and if punishment of the culprits is enough to deal with the enormous problem. All in all a great film, a punch in the gut.
