it was not storyline which take spectators to sit on the edge of their seat to watch whole of film, but undoubtedly the brilliant play of both Kristen Stewart and Peyman Moaadi together which was one of the strong point of that. The film keep you wait to see what will happen in the relationship between a detainee and its guard, a relationship,based on standard, should have never occurred. people from America seems to be more interested about the film , not because they are looking for a Drama to watch, maybe they prefer other in this genre, but it's director Peter Sattler's research about what probably would be happen to Guantanamo and American troops there and his attempt to picture it. Americans sons, friends, army are in war in all over the world and this is what people want to touch troops lifetime from distance. Places seems to be peaceful, clean and sometimes intimate(library, sport, food,..) and not as dark as what we thought about Americans prisons in Guantanamo, but lack of variety of locations and persist to film at only 2 or 3 places during characters dialogue, made viewers somehow limit, those who wished to see much more scenes from there. Meaning of hurriedness to finish filming comes in audiences mind first. The number of "8" seems bold and mystery, 8 years later, 8 month later, hit the ball for 8 times but sounds too long to catch 48, and so on that perhaps should be asked from director about his insisting on number 8 in this film. Generally for those who used to see American star Kristen Stewart in Twilight, this provide a new face for her fans, also the same goes for Peyman Moaadi which Iranian can see him in new character with a foreign language and in strange locations, beside American stars who have millions of followers in Iran.
