    [Highly rated reviewer]

    i had already bought it-sent from israel

    excellent-gives an inside view of the potential for harm caused by interpretation of religious belief-good acting;good story but of more interest for those with interest in jewish or israeli matters-but does not give an israeli bias view

  • A good watch

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    Although there are moments in this film that one has to suspend disbelief, I find it a very satisfying watch. It starts off gently and simmers throughout into a nerve wrecking final twenty minutes or so. Part thriller, part romance, but the reason why I like this film the most is how it illustrates religious teachings, the interpretations, and the effect it has on followers/scholars. Something to think about indeed. This film is good for the thriller/mystery/romance of its plot and characters, but it also has an underlying commentary about religious ideas (in this case Orthodox Jew, but it could certainly be applied to any religions).
