Winner of the Golden Globe for best foreign language film, if that means anything.
Opinions about this "controversial" film?

Only Zionists find this film controversial.

Trust, after watching the film i did not think it controversial. Later I read the reviews and discovered others thought otherwise. I guess the controversy they see is in the representation of a sucide bomber as a "real" person.

Such an amazing film, it isnt controversial at all unless you are a diehard zionist who cringes when you hear the arabic language (which is a good percentage of hardcore zionists). The ending was simply wonderfully done, Tel Aviv looks like a very scary and uberconsumer driven city. The end was perfect, but dont take my word for it.

Yeah man, that was definately an awesome movie. I can see how it's controversial though, most of the media sides with Zionists i think, and the Palestinians are all seen as terrorists, and people feel they shouldn't be shown as human or show things from their prospective.
