Film Review – The Attack

“The Attack” asks very pointed questions about the nature of marriage
and the preservation of secrets in a romantic, intimate union. It’s a
film concerning the aftereffects of a suicide bombing in Tel Aviv, but
it doesn’t linger on the fury that traditionally follows these
sacrifices, electing to focus on those left behind to process the
mindset required to make such a diabolical personal choice. It’s a
harrowing picture with an interpretive ideological viewpoint that
develops sensational dramatic turns of plot. It’s certainly not easy to
digest, but the internal struggle director/co-writer Ziad Doueiri
isolates here is exceptional at times, giving the divisive topic the
meditative approach it deserves.
