The movie ultimately treats us like adrenaline junkies, assuming we lack curiosity.

It would be easy to dismiss the movie’s perspective as limited and jingoistic, but “The Road Between Us” never pretends to offer more than an in-the-moment chronicle of a violent clash.

This is one of those films that’s way more interesting for the controversy that it spawned than it is as a film on its own.

A suspenseful documentary (even though we knew the ending) showing how love for family and country can win over the most brutal hatred and violence of terrorist enemies.

A stirring documentary of a family on one of the worst days in human history, the October 7th Hamas massacre. Amidst the terror and tragedy comes this inspirational and heroic tale in spite of massive loss. This true story of Noam Tibon illustrates the amazing strength and clarity every father wishes they would possess in a total emergency to save their family. And the story serves as a stark reminder of the degree of courage needed to survive against great evil. A MUST SEE for everyone, and anyone with a heart.
