Bi Badan

But the screenplay has decided to include all these lines in the text. What has been the result? A script that is clearly half-finished and if more effort had been spent on writing it, it would have been much more coherent, less wasteful, and more purposeful. So Bodiless is a remarkable film because it deals with an interesting subject, but it has obstacles to become a good film.

On the other hand, the choice of actors in the film has had a great impact on how it is torn apart. On the one hand, Elnaz Shakerdoost has tried to deliver one of his consistent performances to the audience, and on the other hand, the absolute mistake of choosing Soroush Sahet as the father of the deceased girl has brought the film to the ground. It is as if one should accept that Sehat is a very attractive and pleasant director and writer, and the acting is very bad and not sticky. On the other hand, the game of Golareh Abbasi and Pejman Jamshidi did not come out of the water, the world of these parents did not come out of the water. In the meantime, Mina Vahid has played a role that has a good innate harmony with herself in terms of tone, look and body language. The most outstanding performance of the film is Navid Porfaraj's performance as the investigator, which is more brilliant than all the performances in the film.

One of the things I've been thinking about a lot lately is the impact of social media on people's behavior-how it can portray falsehood as truth (or vice versa)-and how deeply this influence is showing itself in Iranian culture, decisions, and society. That's why one of the elements I appreciated most in Bi Badan (The Bodyless) was how it addressed the impact of social media on people's actions. It made me enjoy the film even more.

If we set aside the poor performances by the non-actors and the miscasting of certain roles (honestly, casting Pejman Jamshidi or Soroush Sehat didn't feel like the right choice for this film), there were elements like the strong and impactful opening, the great soundtrack and closing credits, and the vibrant color palette-all alongside a solid story-that made this movie worth watching for me.

So in short, I liked this film, and I'd recommend others watch it too. I'd give it a 6.5 out of 10.

P. S. Near the end of the movie, I was thinking to myself, "a Chavoshi song would hit just right now," and I was literally reaching for my phone when it started playing in the end credits. So yeah-perfect music choice for the credits: 10 out of 10.

The most important problem of the movie was that it moved forward in a hurry. But the point that the director had forgotten was that because the story of the film was based on reality, we already knew what story we were facing and we had gone to the theaters to see the acting and direction and the type of narration.

But this movie was not what We wanted to see!

The actors of the movie were a disaster except for Navid Pourfaraj. Neither Soroush Sehat nor Pejman Jamshidi had an acceptable performance, especially Shakerdoost. Especially because I knew Elnaz Shakerdost's acting ability, I expected a better performance from her, but the only thing she did in the movie was to shed tears!

Even in the script part, due to the haste in the narration, sometimes some important parts of the story were not conveyed well and the audience did not understand the story.

Another negative point was that the story had many time jumps in it, but there was no mention in movie for passing of time and years in the movie, and if you didn't know the story beforehand, you wouldn't have noticed these timejumps. In this way, the story is cut from one sequence to another sequence, but the time of the two sequences was one or two years different from each other!

We had gone to the cinema hoping for a movie in the genre of drama and crime, but we got nothing but waste of time and money and regret for this story...
