Entertainment Reviews:
The connections [Kiarostami] makes between his cinema and Italian neo-realism will interest scholars, students and fledgling directors.
Variety
Rating: 6/10 --
His approach to filmmaking is highly individualistic, though much of his individual style is an adaptation to the constraints of making films in Iran.

Rating: 1.5/5 --
A tediously didactic, often condescendingly reductive 10-part lesson on cinema.
New York Times
Less illuminating than pedantic, as well as tediously self-absorbed.
Village Voice
Even the most loyal fans of the Iranian master won't want to pass up the chance to see this.

Product Description:
The American Dream proves to be more like a nightmare for two brothers from Mexico in the lighthearted comedy AMERICAN 101. As they arrive in Tucson after a torturous road trip, the boys soon find that life as an immigrant in modern-day America isn't much fun at all.
