Audience Member One of my all-time favourite movies. Ever. Simply gorgeous. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Omafilm. Hat mich teilweise an "le gendarme de Saint-Tropez" (1964, auch ein Omafilm mit Louis de Funès) erinnert. Die Kamera war chaotisch. Ich habe nicht verstanden, was der Punkt war. Die besten Momente des Filmes waren extrem traurig. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Omafilm (c). Has some touching moments. Gets the prise for worst action sequences imaginable (Turkish Superman-films notwithstanding). Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Best Isreali movie ever. I'm a bit suprissed that it didn't had an american verision by now. Shay K ofir - mange to make you laugh and cry at the same time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member An Israeli classic movie. Very emotional and representative of the era it was made in. The theme song went on to become a classic as well and is still played on Israeli radio regularly some 30 years later. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
