“Let me get this straight...”
“You want Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, to purchase an abandoned hotel from the Sudanese government... So your idea just to reiterate: Is to send a group of Jews to a Muslim country to a place where they might be eaten by Bedoins. To run a fake hotel In order to rescue a group of black Jews who might or might not survive a 1000 km walk across the desert to be smuggled out to sea by Israeli Navy SEALs to an Israeli ship?” asks the Defense Minister.
I’m not a Netflix subscriber or movie goer. (except for Star Wars) I always download movies for free from The Pirate Bay and drop them on my 64 GB USB. If you have kids this works better because you never have streaming issues and you can create a folder of Disney movies that will autoplay on the TV, repeat, never show ads, and always kid friendly because you’re the one who put the movies in the folder. When the power or internet is out, you can still have something to watch. Anyways I loaded up a few flicks, was maybe on the third one and heard the above dialogue from the Defense Minister. It sounded so cool that it woke me up and it is a great summary of this film which is based on a true story.
The Critics
Rotten Tomatoes scored this at 30% while we the general audience scored it at over 80%. This has been happening a lot lately. Do they know we all hate them now and are using reverse psychology to get us to watch?
Roger Ebert gave it one out of four. I never liked him. I thought that he was a douche bag before I even knew what the word douche bag meant. I hate people who think they are mentally superior to the average person and talk down to us like they’re on a whole other level of supreme intelligence or something.
I would have to say I agree with the Rotten Tomato’s audience review and give it a score of 80%. It was interesting, moved along well, and had great acting, but it’s a movie I’d only watch once and isn’t exactly on my recommendation list.
Captain America
Chris Evans is Ari Levinson and the main character of this film. I’m sorry, but I can’t get the typecast of Captain America out of my mind, so I’ll just refer to him as such. His character isn’t much different than Steve Rogers either. I’m sure you’ll be thinking that Captain America lost his super-soldier serum, but not his classic American charm the whole film too.
Honest Feminism
I have a daughter and have helped empower thousands of my female students, but shows like Supergirl, Batwoman, or the new Spiderman are reprehensible to me. Having strong women is healthy, but not when it’s unintelligently over done and at the expensive of the male characters. The Red Sea Diving resort has a great female character that is badass in a realistic way without belittling the dudes around her.
Conclusion
This was a good film, a true story, and worth watching. If you see it come up on Netflix or The Pirate Bay, you should watch it. I loved the real photos of the actual people at the end of the film. Don’t listen to the critics. They’re all crazy and high on their own egos.
