It's an absorbing film, I think, whether you are and aren't Jewish - and will find a receptive audience on either side of the aisle.

Rated: 4/5

You definitely don't have to be Jewish to see the age-old dichotomy between reason and revelation played out in this micro-community in small-town America.

Rated: B-plus

"The Rabbi Goes West" gives an interesting and detailed microscopic look at the Jewish faith and culture in a place where one (a former Christian like me) would not expect there to be a Jewish faith and culture - I mean, it is Montana

Rated: B

By the end of "The Rabbi Goes West," you may feel quite differently about the exuberant rabbi you met at the beginning.
