A film that has a lot to say but lacking the appropriate way to say it.

Rated: 2/4

Wall Street Journal

"West of the Jordan River" is as formally precise at it is politically unapologetic.

Simon Abrams

Village Voice

The maddeningly unfocused Israeli documentary West of the Jordan River doesn't reveal anything insightful about Gaza settlers' reasons for either supporting or rejecting a two-state solution.

Interviews mostly liberal Israeli politicians, journalists, and activists in civic organizations working to bridge the gap the government won't cross--feels sadly dated .

Rated: 6/10

Film Journal International

An annoying rehash of anti-Israeli sentiment in connection with the occupied territories.

Audience Member

Disjointed, biased review of what is going on in the West Bank. A very disappointing movie- it lacked depth, balance and any new information that is not already known. And he completely leaves out any context to make any claims the people he interviews believable.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
