Crimson Gold (2003)
6/10
Ordinary and boring
19 July 2004
Crimson Gold is the first ever Iranian film I ever have watched and I usually make such a basis for future viewings of films from the said country. Well based on this film I doubt I will be seeing any films from Iran in the near future.

I found the film rather boring and tedious and some of the scenes were dragging and seemed senseless. It was so boring that I would find myself looking at my watch so many times and praying that it ended sooner rather than later. It is not very often I found anything as dry as this.

The start was rather promising but it really failed after that. It did have a good message to portray though. A picture of the social inequalities of Iranian society were portrayed in many scenes such as the the Jewelry shop, and the rich man he had dinner with. I just wish the director had tried to make things a little more interesting and lively.
