Actually, as someone who has studied the events of the Iranian Revolution in depth, they condensed and explained it well. They made the revolt make sense, and I don't think anyone would think otherwise.

But the Iranian hostage crisis was, in fact, a really horrible thing that some Iranians did. They held innocent American diplomats hostage for 444 days. Glossing over that fact doesn't help American perception of Iran - that was not an act that Americans should associate with a peaceful and reasonable Iran. The clear villains in the movie were the Revolutionary Guard and the people who stormed the American Embassy, not your average Iranian. The average Iranian was portrayed as angry at the situation and the injustice of America giving asylum to the Shah. There were overreactions, but they made sense in context.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question (which I hope wasn't as crazy offensive and people seem to think). I will probably try and see it while it's still in theatres!

AYRT - yay, you should! It's a good movie! And rare in that it DOESN'T show Middle Eastern people as psychotic terrorists for no reason. :-)
