Animation has taken itself to the next level... fix that... the next next level... fix that again... the insanely next level! With Persepolis, you'll learn drama and war mixed together with the best ending 2007 ever had.

Marjane Sitrapi's shocking life story (based upon her graphic novel of a memoir) depicting her life growing up before and during the Islamic Revolution.

This movie is the worst way to learn about iran and its revolution, and the fact that the writer of the comic is not even burn and raised in iran is really impressive

I simply loved this movie, the main character and her somewhat intense life. Its both adorable and freaking cruel, with the minimalistic animations its just one of few masterpieces in animated world.

If this were intended to be an overview of anti-Middle Eastern sentiment aimed at a 10 to 12-year old audience, I'd say it did a great job.

The beginning is very intense and detailed about the revolution and the normal day during the Shah regime and after that. The feminist ideas in the end were annoying, otherwise I would give it a 10.

The compelling biography of Marjane Satrapi, from her precocious childhood till the conversion to a woman, always narrating the harsh, troubled life in homeland. A innovating way to screenplay a graphic novel. One of best opus of adult animation.

I watched this movie in Jakarta Film Festival,it was the opening movie and I could tell this has been a great opening for a movie fest. A more up-lifting mood of slightly noir humour, suavely told by honest storytelling way.

Incredible! The words Marjane says in the last scene moved my heart and brought tears to our eyes. A definite 10/10. All Must Watch!

A wonderful film with dark sardonic humor, poetic animation dwelling into human relationships. LOVED IT.

An amazing animated memoir showing what it's like growing up in tumultuous Iran. Some of the best 2-D animation I've seen since Disney was alive.

This movie is a must-see. It is superb entertainment as well as a realistic, mini-history lesson.

Seemed pretty boring to me. An easy history lesson, which is always good! I'm sure it was the best choice at the cineplex tonight.

The main issue with Persepolis is that it shows how things used to be in Iran, and then it shows how much it changed. The artwork is simplistic, but it's still damn good.

This movie is beautifully artistic with the animation showing off how great 2d animation is. It stays faithful to its source material and that is all it needed to do.
