Hardcore Kiarostami devotees may miss the master's harsher clarity, but Hatami, best known for her starring role in Dariush Mehrjui's Leila, makes her character's inner transformation both subtle and palpable.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
The sweet script, crisp direction and a delightful performance by Leila Hatami, as the sad-eyed wife, should put Deserted Station on your must-see list.
New York Post
Excessively enigmatic, Deserted Station nevertheless provides an allegory for modern-day Iran.

New York Daily News
Like all of Iranian cinema, Deserted Station is marked by unaffected, neo-realist performances, particularly by Nezam Manouchehri as the testy and uncertain husband, and Leila Hatami as his quietly sad wife.
Newark Star-Ledger
Rating: 3.5/5 --
It is filled with feeling and far from sentimental or cloying, with a beautiful score enhancing the melancholia.
