What was unsympathetic about them.
You find a guy who is taking care of his father who is suffering from advanced alzthiemers and is being preasured by his wife to uproot leave his father and his country unsympathetic?
You find a woman who wants to take her family away from an oppressive country so her daughtercan have a better life unsympathetic?
You find a woman who is pregnant and her husband owes creditors to the point that he is being jailed and takes a thankless job to be unsympathetic?
You find a guy who is down on his luck and so desperate that he is willing to take the same thankless job only to find out that his wife took the job and to the best of his knowledge was assulted by the employer and as a result lost his unborn child to be unsympathetic?
Maybe you found the daughter torn between her parents to be unsympathetic.
I'm not sure I can think of a movie with more realistic characters with whom I can so easy sympathise.

you saw it and you didn't realize the universal themes, you missed the entire film.
An imperfect father under great pressure to care for his own father at the risk of losing his wife and child. A mother whose life cannot progress beyond that of a 1st century wife sees her one chance for freedom (why should freedom for women be less understandably important?) destroyed by her old father-in-law. A daughter on the cusp of womanhood sees her family being torn apart and then sees her father charged with a brutal crime of which she has unrevealed information.
And the poor "victims," obviously considered less truthful by the authorities, that are in a serious financial crisis.
Again, a human drama that is rendered with extraordinary skill. No, Jazz, it doesn't have "good and bad" people clearly defined nor does it have a feel good vibe for you to dance from the theater.
The wife and the husband both should have won Best Actor Oscars, too.
...blindly opposed to all things Muslim, why?
lose your sad grudges. Then we can talk.

..the most blatant 'projection' so far this year.
;0)
Almost every time I post mkuller replies with hostility, trying to dredge up irrelevant stuff from another time and place.

...on what you post.Why would you mention sharia law as a negative in a film review?
Or do you mean to say that all of your narrow-minded biases and your personality have changed?

"Why would you mention shariah law as a negative in a film review?"For starters, how did it work out for those in the film? Do you even have firing synapses?
