Blu-ray Review: Complete Criterion Edition of Amazing ‘Certified Copy’
Submitted by BrianTT on May 23, 2012 - 11:33amCHICAGO – Abbas Kiarostami’s “Certified Copy” should have made my top ten last year.

Just a year later, “Certified Copy,” recently released in resplendent Criterion Blu-ray and DVD editions, feels even more like a monumental work, a brilliant filmmaking exercise that features spectacular performances, beautiful writing, and some of the most interesting thematic work of the last several years. With great special features, this is a perfect addition to the Criterion Collection.
