Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Innacurate
Review: This movie is outrageously innacurate and it's hard to believe the extent people can go to, just to make money. I feel I wasted my time watching it - Iran is NOT as depicted.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A movie made with an intention to creat hatred
Review: It is very sad how our society accepts such movies to be part of what we buy and watch. Anyone who knows the least about the Middle Eastern culture knows that this movie (filmed and produced in Israel, by the way!) has one message: if you don't yet hate Islam (despite all what the media is trying to make you do so), then wath this movie!.

Summary: a waste of time and money, at a time when we need to come closer to other people, not distort their reality to be able to hate them more!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very good, well acted movie, close to actual events in book
Review: I have listened to Betty and think she is a very courages person. Movie seemed to follow book prety well and actors played parts very well. Loved this movie. Think people who think Iran is so wonderful, should go live there for awhile.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Israeli made movie: It explains itself
Review: This movie was produced and filmed in Israel. The actors (except Sally F. ) are Israelis. Its total waste of time since not one ounce of reality is in the picture. Its a biased account of one angry woman who has made millions off of her so called "anguish". It seems her anguish has made her lots of money!! How strange?! The donkeys roaming the streets would never be seen in Tehran. Only in the streets of Tel Aviv. Sum it up: Waste of time to watch and even worse is to talk about it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie!!!!!!!
Review: This movie is a movie of courage and true love. Sally Fields played a AWESOME part in this movie. I really recomoend it!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's happening right under our eyes
Review: Many Americans will find it hard to believe that this story can actually be true. Mostly because many would have no reason to go to Iran. But I can tell from it's experience. It does happen. Once again, Sally Field finds a role where she can show off her great dramatic talents.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Why "Not Without my Daughter" fails to get my approval.
Review: I feel disgusted at the fact that I wasted two hours of my life to watch such inaccurate rubbish that lacks any real value. The director attempts to convince us (the viewer) that Iranians are violent people who live in a medieval society engulfed with animosity. In addition, the director attempts to convince us that Iranian husbands roam the streets of Tehran and legally beating up their wives. Hence, the viewer is expected to believe that 2500 years of Iranian history becomes generalized in a two hour account. Maybe the director should take a visit to Iran and see for himself how flawed his so-called movie really is. But hey, its show business remember? We can make a few easy bucks these days at the cost of besmirching an entire people. Right?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Alright, but not great
Review: It was a typical Sally Field part playing the Heroin. It was real scary seeing the reactions of the islamic people but these people are not like this. The dark way the directors showed these people as monsters is not true but just used to scare you into liking the plot. The acting was alright but the plot was still good. But come on it didn't suck that bad.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ABSOLUTE RUBBISH
Review: This film angered me a lot because of the ridiculous and compleately untrue story behind the plot, but also saddened me that films like this are made in a cruel attempt to lessen the dignity of muslim countries like iran and more because I know so many people who belived it. Take this from a true Iranian...this is not how the people of iran live, not even remotely similar. Nothing, not evevn one single word said in this movie is true and it made me absolutely sick that they even suggested Iranian people live like this. I wouldnt even give ita single star if I didnt have to..my advice is to not belive any holywood buck making movies like this before you've seen what they claim goes on for yourself..and by the way the book is even worse..don't even get me started on that.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A WONDERFUL FILM
Review: "Not Without My Daughter" is a perfect roll for Sally Field. She played Betty Mahmoody to perfection. The acting and directing was so great, you could feel the aggrevation and horror pumping through this woman's veins! A monumental film!
