Critic Reviews
-
Nell Minow, Chicago Sun-Times
Good intentions often make bad movies.
-
Tasha Robinson, Chicago Tribune
The filmmakers split time between history and personal drama in ways that do full service to neither.
-
Linda Matchan, Boston Globe
It aspires to be an epic drama but suffers from an acute identity crisis: It can't decide if it wants to be history, drama, or a cry for peace in the Mideast.
-
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
It's hard to take the film seriously with [its] contrivances, including a hokey music score, dialogue designed solely to give us historical information.
-
Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter
Even with its flaws, the film finds many moving moments as it surveys the ravages of a perpetually divided country.
