Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
. The basic plot - a man and a woman traveling and talking - is reminiscent of Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise/Before Sunset films, but the way in which Certified Copy calls into question the nature of reality is more akin to Inception.

fresh:
The conclusion is abrupt and unsatisfying, but the philosophical dialogue Kiarostami manages to keep aloft for well over an hour touches on intriguing questions of openness, self-honesty, and personal freedom.

rotten:
The movie threatens to become a sketch about a coquette and a boor squabbling at each other to little effect.

"Certified Copy" promises more than it delivers, but the limited portions are fresh.
