Everybody Knows is somewhat less than the sum of its parts despite the efforts of an outstanding cast - and a disappointing step back for writer-director Asghar Farhadi.
The movie doesn't seem to be playing near you.

While Farhadi is a master of the drama, his gifts are at times an awkward fit for a kidnapping thriller. It is almost as if one bought a ticket for a Liam Neeson movie and wound up instead in a Strindberg play. Mar 21, 2019 | Full Review…

Farhadi is an excellent screenwriter and an impressive handler of actors, but the film nonetheless adds up to less than the sum of its parts. Mar 4, 2019 | Full Review…

A great finish can save an otherwise ho-hum movie, just as a flat ending can undo an otherwise strong one. "Everybody Knows" is an example of the latter. It's disappointing for everybody involved. Mar 1, 2019 | Rating: C | Full Review…

There's a lovely sense, throughout the film, of how real life sometimes interrupts things, the way a child's prattling disrupts the pretty wedding ceremony, or how even in the midst of grief breakfast must be made. Feb 28, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

If Everybody Knows is far below Asghar Farhadi's best level, it is still an offer that it is better not to reject. [Full Review in Spanish] Mar 29, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The distractingly oft-repeated title seems to herald an unfortunate new approach to imparting information for Farhadi: everybody will know everything, even if it means clumsy exposition, heavy-handed foreshadowing, and redundancy. Mar 21, 2019 | Full Review…

Even the way the movie is filmed, with its editing providing the narrative a freer flow, is different - though this may be merely a sign of Farhadi's new-found artistic freedom. Mar 21, 2019 | Full Review…
