The spoiler is in the title of The Stoning of Soraya M., a powerful, relentlessly brutal drama about Iranian capital punishment.

Though The Stoning of Soraya M.' s heart is in the right place, its head is lost in storm clouds of anger.

fresh:
Despite some wonderful performances, the plot plods inexorably and with sickening predictability towards the inevitable conclusion, but nothing can prepare us for the actual event, which Nowrasteh films in real time and in shocking detail.

Whatever its dramatic flaws, and they are many, this is a movie that, in essence, is more than a movie.
