Lebanon (2009)
10/10
A gripping film!
17 March 2010
I have seen this film at the International Film Festival in Rotterdam a couple of weeks ago. Now it starts playing at my local cinema and I realize that the film hasn't really left my mind yet after all those weeks. It is such a gripping film! The story 'an sich' is nothing new, young men, boys even, have to go to war. It shows the insanity of every war. But the way it does is very different. The film sucks you right in the tank with the soldiers. You can almost smell the sweat, urine and oil, it's completely claustrophobic! Every time somebody opened the 'door' of the tank I took a deep breath, because I was so relieved that some fresh air was coming in. This film really sticked with me, and I recommend everybody to go and see it!
