.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

9\10 people in Israel will tell you that this movie is the best movie ever made by an Israeli. unfortunately this movie simply can't be understood by people who are not Israeli because the vibe of the movie is a comedy about the army in Israel, not just any army and about being Israeli. there are a lot of inside jokes that can only be understood by an Israeli and many different situations that you can't quite understand unless you've been in the same situation like most Israelies were when serving in the army. in Isarel its a cult movie and I doubt the fact that there are Israelies who have not seen this movie, it is broadcast every independent's day and probably once a month in the different channels. so I recommend you watch this film for the first time alone and on the second time with an Israeli that will tell you whats going on. 10\10 for me.

The story of a dysfunctional Israeli reservists' unit in the Sinai prior to the 1980 peace deal with Egypt.Gingi, the unit's sergeant and the only guy around with his head screwed on, sort to speak, desperately tries to keep everything going smoothly, when the regional Colonel is due for a visit.The plot thickens, when one of the reservists under his command (Victor), ends up in the hands of an equally dysfunctional Egyptian border unit.While the film is a funny, light-hearted watch, the humour, unfortunately, doesn't translate all that well, and unless you're a native Hebrew speaker, you will miss a few of the important points, that have made it such a cult film in Israel.All in all, definitely worth a watch!

A hilarious comedy. It covers the story of three characters, but concentrates on Sgt. Jinji and the character of Mr. Hasson. Sgt. Jinji is very interested in Yaeli, Mr. Hasson's youngest daughter. After getting into a dispute with a fuming Mr. Hasson who falsely believed Jinji wanted to marry his eldest daughter, Jinji is kicked out of Mr. Hasson's house. Having witnessed the scene, and unbeknownst to Mr. Hasson nor Jinji, Yaeli escapes too and hides in the back of Jinji's jeep, intent to join him despite her father's wishes. On the way to his army base, Jinji picks up Konstanza, a shady businessman, who has been evading reporting to reserve duty for a while. Konstanza also happens to owe money to Mr. Hasson (due to a very dubious business deal gone awry), and Mr. Hasson decides to look for Konstanza to get his money back. All our characters end up in the middle of the desert at a small, somewhat improvised military base.Indeed the plot isn't particularly sophisticated or even very important (the movie itself doesn't seem to take itself seriously). The beauty in the movie lies in charisma of the main characters (who make up the "Hagashash Haheever", as they're called in Hebrew), in the jokes and humorous scenes that occur between the army authority figures and Jinji, Mr. Hasson, and Konstanza. For myself, it also creates a nostalgic feeling, one that increases as years go by. Israelis will definitely understand and most, I believe, enjoy the humor, but I would recommend this movie to non-Israelis, because after all, it is a classic Israeli film and has certain moments that would make anyone laugh.

Most Israeli movies are stupid, idiotic, and simply BAD.But this movie is great, very funny, very good.This movie tells about the army reservation unit that really is useless and can't deal with themselves.A must watch if you are an Israeli.
