Subtraction Ratings & Reviews
Women Write About Comics
Louis Skye (Ronita Roy Mohan)
I'm delighted I watched Subtraction. This film had me guessing at every turn! I couldn't predict what the characters would do and what the consequences of those actions would be. It was a bonkers - and sometimes horrifying - ride and I was entranced.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An intelligent exercise in fantasy filmmaking.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
What... renders it an exemplary work of modern cinema isn't just the way that it achieves large-scale effects through the patient accumulation of small details-it's also the sense of cinematic subjectivity with which these details are realized.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
The doppelganger premise of the film grants Haghighi space to explore the depths of his thematic interest in identity, gender and violence in contemporary Iran, rendering Subtraction a powerful and intelligent exercise in genre play.
What She Said
Anne Brodie
Explores the ideas of multiplicity, climate change, and coping with a life-changing event that can't be explained- an effectively suspenseful story as doppelgangers try to retain their earlier lives, knowing they've changed for all time.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Rich Smith
Tehran noir at its most exquisite; rust reds and ochres, sand and shadow, near constant rain. Cinematographer Morteza Najafi's moody hues provide the perfect backdrop for incredible performances...
Chicago Reader
Kathleen Sachs
Less specifically, the film speaks to an almost otherworldly sensation of having to accept and live with something out of the ordinary-something that Iranians are more familiar with than most.
