An admirable elegy for the lost opportunity to achieve peace between Israel and Palestine. [Full Review in Spanish]

As close as my political beliefs may be to Gitai's and as sympathetic as I am to his analysis, I can't help but mistrust his filmmaking.

Frequently horrifying and never less than absorbing, "Rabin, the Last Day" is a meticulously observant portrait of a broken society.
March 10, 2016
An unusual work that mixes genres to at times awkward but always powerful effect.

It's a profoundly frustrating movie, which is to say that it's an authentic expression of profound frustration.

I think Gitai is admirable for following its tradition of critical, investigative moviemaking in his own rough-and-ready style.

Politics aside, what's patently fascinating about Gitai's films is how his architectural background is reflected in how he structures his work.

It isn't quite an Israeli version of JFK, but Rabin, the Last Day rivals Oliver Stone's film in seeking to pose questions that official studies have refused to explore.

There is a gaping hole at the heart of this movie where Rabin should be. His death, rather than his life, is the star of this film.

A docu-drama exploring the dire effects of extremism in politics, religion, and speech.

With material this powerful, we shouldn't have to continually be puzzling out what's real and what's staged.
January 28, 2016
At times overemphatic (no one will ever accuse Gitai of holding too much back), this docu-thriller is also agonizingly suspenseful, despite the foreordained conclusion.
