Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!
Console best movie i've ever seen.
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
anelsg This is not a story of a women caving in as some said, this is a realistic portait of a women that grew in a harsh community and succeed to confront her homosexuality. The acting of both Rachaels is superb, academy material ! And the male character is really complex and beautiful
juanmuscle I really enjoyed this tale. I learnt a lot about a different religion, it was nice and thoughtful, they are a tight nit group who really care about each other. Although no matter how hard we try to lead a perfect life, no matter how much attention we put to every single detail, no matter how we calculate and keep a vigil on the precarious unforeseen, all our contingency plans are but a makeshift band-aid in the face the calamatous unruly heart. This was extremely well-written, there is no doubt about that, the way it unfolded is exactly how a natural thread in the living world might unfold, there was nothing forced or strained nor did the plot yank or pull us one way or anything forced! It all felt so comfortable and yet against the backdrop of the orthodox movement we also felt for everyone involved. So many different perspectives gave life to the plot added to the theme and bolstered the undercurrents, but it also left so much room for the element of mystery, once our hearts began to sink, boom! Hope loomed over the terrible pall, once our hearts felt fettered, boom! Freedom loomed over to sweep us away in a flurry of possibilities. Excellent script! 'May you live a long life' this powerful thoughtful well-intention phrase was being thrown about throughout the tale as if one might say Hallo anywhere else to perhaps our neighbors, but when the two ladies said to each other at the end, charged with so much backstory, it really moved us to look at the phrase word for word and really experience its genuine true meaning of hope rich and full teeming with glory as if said from the soul, 'May you have a long life full of truth and love and joy and hope and vision and everything that is going to make it a life worth living, and perhaps I can be in it?' It was really darling, excellent piece of film making!
Weedol This has very good reviews so i watched it. Normally I don't like to say anymore than watch it and enjoy the film but in this case I'm just going to say if there is nothing else on the tele and you don't fancy watching anything you've recorded or downloaded then it's watchable as a last resort.
xendreja A movie where wigs are snatched, spit is swallowed and Judaism is Orthodox. No lesbians die or get converted by a man in this beautiful movie. There are lots of kisses, shy looks, eye-sex, forbidden hand holding and only one f word. Rachel Weisz is a real sinnamon roll as rebellious Ronit, and Rachel McAdams slays playing cinnamon roll Esti. The ending is left open, hopefully for a sequel. Would recommend 10/10
