Gitai's experimental technique in Free Zone is dizzying, sometimes thrilling.Full Review

Natalie Portman demonstrates tour de force weeping in the back of a taxi as an American searching for her roots in Israel.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

A minor movie on a major subject, a drama with an almost unbearable lightness.Full Review

Wesley Morris
Boston Globe

Amos Gitai's most satisfying pic since war drama "Kippur." Schematic set-up is given a human face by fine performances and a physical journey that's often more interesting than the characters' emotional ones, which are weakened by the Israeli auteur's tendency toward convenient doctrinaire-ism and chunks of expository dialogue.Full Review

Like a lot of Gita's films, Free Zone is part history, part allegory, and part art. Both the history and art hold their fascinations.Full Review
