8/10
this time it doesn't cause any tears

Warning: Spoilers
Of all Iranian movies, this is the only one which made me laugh and think about the little details about Islam and how people who claim to be so devoted to their religion might be dragged on by a thief. It was very amusing, full of irony and sarcasm. The thief always reveal his true nature in every single occasion, even his journey into Islamic local area doesn't make him a believer. I exploit it so cunningly and luckily that he gets away all the time. The movie takes us to decide whether he is a good person in nature or not. We get to the end of the movie just to learn the result. That's why the movie lets us inside and never let go.
