SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

eyesh-97835 Contains spoilerThe movie has big hole in its story.It ignores the facts the the death was an accident CAUSED by the brother. And when the writer had a great moment to air all of it out ( Fairness, religion, prejudice ...) they chickened out. WHAT A SHAME. Waset of a great drama., The ending is moving. How about another line, the daughter could have blamed the son and and her brother for the fact that he ruined her life, and was forced to have a child grow without a father. Acting is good. Also he is not a Palestinian , I jaffa is a mix of Jewish and Arabs. they do not call them self Palestinian.

moviecollector91 Imagine a film with an in depth story that will keep you guessing. Imagine a film that has exceptional acting and interesting characters. Imagine a film that is just as gritty as it is beautiful. Imagine Jaffa, one of the greatest films you will ever have the pleasure of seeing.Jaffa tells a remarkable story about a dysfunctional Israeli family that owns an automotive repair shop. The family's problems drive the story to places that you would never expect it to go. This is not a typical film at all. Just when you think you have it figured out, it throws a curve ball and leaves your jaw wide open. Jaffa is full of secrets, lies and betrayal that will keep you entertained until the credits roll.Think of all the elements that make a movie great. Jaffa has all of those elements maxed out. It's a must see film for anyone that likes movies. It's a masterpiece.

vivarto Leftist Israelis make up this fantasies. They invent a fake reality of Arab - Israeli love and understanding. In this respect this movie is just like the the "Egyptian Band". In reality in Jaffa nobody calls Israeli Arabs "Palestinians" both Jews and Arabs refer to them as "Arabs".The marriages between Arabs and Jews are rare, and only extremely rare survive beyond just a few years.The hope that this movie is trying to instill in the hearts of the naive viewers is false.In summary: a tragic waste of talent to make such a false movie.

benbree Wow! This is an excellent movie and does a great job of demonstrating love through all sorts of challenges. I really enjoyed the performance by Ronit Elkabetz as I have seen her in "The Band's Visit". It was fun to watch. There was also a great performance by Dana Ivgy, who portrayed Mali Wolf. She appeared so innocent and believable as the daughter who falls for a Palestinian worker and decides to keep it a secret from her family - even after becoming pregnant.While I have no idea if it represented the relationships between Jews and Palestines, I really hope that these type of relationships happen each and every day in their world. There is a chance for peace!!
