8/10
Israel's perfection 8/10
7 July 2020
"Giv'at Halfon Eina Ona" is definitely the best movie of Israeli cinema. It is super funny, creative and mind blowing at the time. The movie is one out of four movies that "The Pale Tracker" group did back in the day. All movies were not connected by plot, they had nothing to do with each other. But they all became classics of cinema and culture in Israel. With "Giv'at Halfon" being the most remarkable and the one everyone remembers. It is a parody over the military and citizens, the combination between the two is hilarious. The big stars of the movie are the three members of "The Pale Tracker": Gavri Banai, Yisrael Poliakov and Shaike Levi. All doing a great job and wonderful performances. Interesting fact: both the actors Nitza Saul and Tuvia Tzafir play in this movie and in the other classic called "Hagiga B'Snuker" which makes them the only actors to play in both most classical movies ever in Israel. What I love so much about this movie is all the catch phrases and iconic dialogues between the characters but I can't give any examples because it's not the same in English. I believe all viewers should watch this movie, rather you want to or need to because it's a "must watch". Even if you don't get the jokes I'm sure you'll understand the concept and story. Put on your uniform and go to the military!
