It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
A fine adventure for kids from Israel. A boy, about twelve years old, and the son of a recently fallen Israeli soldier, wins a judo contest. However, the boy he has beaten in the final, is the school bully, and soon his gang will beat him up. He redeems himself later that day when he joins a lovely girl called Alicia, a Russian immigrant, her older brother Lev (who suffers from down syndrome) and another bespectacled kid, in rescuing a young couple who has been left dying in a lake after crashing with their truck. This is fine stuff for older kids, though its unthinking endorsement of the militarism of Israeli society is a bit unsettling.
