Review For The Other Son
A humane but emotionally anemic message movie whose dramatic craft doesn't live up to its good intentions. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Lévy generally succeeds in creating a compelling, humanistic family drama, even if some viewers may reject the movie's final note of optimism. Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle In the end, it seems, this is not a story about two families, and two lands. It's a story about one family, and one world. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger Levy handles with aplomb what could easily have been a messy mix of emotions and politics. John Anderson-Newsday The intention here is plain - we are all human, we can all be family - but Levy weaves the mix of identity crises, cultural mingling and common ground slyly. Tom Long-Detroit News "The Other Son'' is played with warmth and conviction by its cast. But it's also a little pat and toothless, set in an Israel where not even the notorious border crossings seem that difficult. Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post The film goes to great lengths to make us believe its premise, and then use it to make a humane and surprisingly hopeful film about Israeli-Palestinian relations. Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI) The actors are all excellent, the storytelling compassionate, and the overall sense one takes from the film is more humane than political. Louis Black-Austin Chronicle At times, certain supporting characters come off as mouthpieces for political points of view, but Levy isn't making a polemic, and her ultimate message is positive and humane. Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly Though lacking subtlety, the story conveys a rare sensitivity and compassion. But what divides humans historically are more complex issues of power and domination. And shouldn't be buried, even in fiction, under sentimental appeals which change nothing. Prairie Miller-Long Island Press The movie doesn't need to preach a "we're all equal" message. When we watch the boys bond with their new kin over food or music, then see the lines of Palestinians plodding through armed checkpoints to reach jobs or visit Israeli friends, we get the point. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer The concept feels very designed-to-teach-us-lessons, but the execution is surprisingly graceful. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press A provocative, moving social drama, superbly thought out and well acted by its cast. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express What makes an Israeli or Palestinian? Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit Compelling and emotional, exploring many facets of self-identity. Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate How the sons begin to share each other's lives is sensitively portrayed, and the film's more original than the usual Romeo and Juliet personalization of the regional divide. Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com An unbelievable situation becomes remarkably tangible here and oh so pertinent. Brandon Judell-GreenCine A tender, warm and heartfelt drama that's grounded in humanism and well-nuanced acting. It's one of the best foreign films of the year. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru Stands out as a plea for tolerance, a film about the shared humanity that can overcome even the most intractable of differences. Robert Levin-amNewYork The Other Son is one of the best dramas of the year, foreign or otherwise, making a case that the strongest faith may be far away from pulpits and closer to home.
