Yes, this is a really long movie, and I was on edge for most of it. The atmosphere, the mood, the pacing, the cinematography, the acting - all are thick with exquisite tension, suspense, and are at times quite chilling. Exiled director, Rasoulof, courageously uses the theocratic Iranian government as the driving force of this psychological thriller/political drama, and takes us for quite a ride.
