I rented this on Amazon Prime, as it seems to be high on the prediction list for a Best Picture nomination.
It's a foreign film set in Iran. Very well done, keeps you engaged the entire time, and does a good job at making you see things from different angles.
Two things that kind of lost me:
1. Why on earth would you answer the phone? Maybe it is partially a cultural thing but I didn't see any reason under the sun that would make me answer the phone. That decision kind of lost me a bit.
2. I liked the end but it reenforced to me that they should have killed him. It sounds like he is walking away at the end, but either way it is a threat that "I know who you are and I can find you". They will now live in fear and should have done him in when they had the chance
