A brilliant outstanding film, pre-October you know the number. Am Israel chai

This is a brilliant film about the challenges that Israel (the only democracy in the Middle East and the ancestral land of the Jewish people) faces since its (re)birth. The film has an outstanding cast: Ido Tako's performance is absolutely superb, and Efrat Ben Tzur's (who plays Shlomi's mother) is also breathtaking. The director (Dani Rosenberg) succeeds in making a brilliant film that illustrates the reality of many young people in Israel (pre-October you know the number). The film is unpredictable and the director manages to keep the audience in suspense during all the film. Bravo. The music is also gorgeous. A must-see masterpiece. 10/10. Am Israel chai.

A powerful film

I watched this film in London at a film festival without knowing much about the subject matter. I was hugely impressed by the acting, the directing, the cinematography and the energy and pace of the film.The country is living in a chaotic time and the young man at the centre of the story is trying to make some sense of the craziness of the period. He is young, he is in love, he wants to dream of a future but all around him is war. The clever shooting style perfectly connected with the young man's frenetic journey. I wish all the young talent associated with this film success - they deserve it!

Lively but shallow

Watched the movie at Thessaloniki Film Festival I enjoyed the Vanishing Soldier - The direction is pacey, the main character likeable and it gives a glimpe of daily life in today's Israel that is even more timely at this time (Fall 2023), after the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.However I have to say I enjoyed it despite its flaws, which lie mostly in the script. A script that tries to balance betweem drama and screwball comedy at times and in the end cannot find the right analogy. There are too many comic substories which push crediblity at a point where it makes it improbable, without really adding anything. In the end it feels a bit like "American Pie and the Israeli army."
