Boring

Rating: 5/10 (19 May 2007)

This film never becomes interesting enough, nor riveting to justify the term 'Thriller'. A thriller is supposed to be entertaining, but this is far from that. I began to think it might shed some light, in a documentary way on a complex situation, but it merely confused and even raised questions about historical accuracy. I was never quite sure if it was trying to tell a real story about real people or not. The acting was generally very good, but the whole thing was confusing from the start, and overly long. I was not impressed by any of the set scenes,somehow it never quite got into gear. There is something unsatisfying about a film where you cannot feel comfortable with the characters, where you are not sure if to like them or not. The overall impression I got was a message that said, nothing changes, Israel brings about its own troubles. Glad I did not pay to see it.
