4.0 out of 5 stars Evocative, inspiring, and fresh., Nov 17 2005
By queer movie lover - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Round Trip (DVD)
This is a wonderful film that covers far more bases than I anticipated.

The acting is fabulous, the filming evocative, and the story an inspiring

and fresh one that keeps your eyes glued through every minute, and then

some.

Nurit (Anat Waxman) leaves her husband and takes her two children to Tel

Aviv. As a single mother working long hours as a bus driver, she needs

help

taking care of her two admirably self-sufficient children who are lost in

the world of leaving their father and adjusting to the new city. The woman

she finally hires to help her brings the most unexpected help anyone can

imagine. What unfolds is an evocative, laughter-filled love story between

a broken Israeli family and a breath-takingly phenomenal woman from Ghana.

Shining light on broken families, interracial relationships, nationality,

class, and unexpected lesbian love, "Round Trip" is an absolutely amazing

film. It's the whole package, guarenteed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a Round Trip Rather a One-Way Trip to the 1950s, Dec 17 2005
By P. Bigelow - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Round Trip (DVD)
During most of the film, the main character, Nurit, doesn't smile - she hardly seems to have any personality at all. Then she meets Mushidi who moves in with Nurit and her two children as a nanny. Nurit and Mushidi become lovers and, finally, Nurit smiles. She is obviously happy with Mushidi. But then, her estranged husband finds out about the two women and threatens to take the children from Nurit. Nurit can't give up her children so she gives up Mushidi. Mushidi, in turn, turns herself into immigration and is deported. Talk about depressing! This was such a 1950s ending, and while I wasn't sure what I was expecting, a 1950s ending was no where on my horizon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tel-Aviv, the Jewish state., May 28 2008
By Michael Kerjman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Round Trip (DVD)
Yeah, this is a story about n o r m a l women-mothers providing for their kids, struggling to meet ties, as they exercised their true nature pressured with reality a world presents.

A typically-traditional ending of such an "amoral story" is just a way producers follow for letting their works to reach a viewer, whether two females kissing or a teen playing around ( Garcon Stupide).

Personally, I hardly understood how an illegal migrant happened from Ghana -according to a movie info provided on this page, because a six year old son of her had been to Nigeria, but it was so arranged, perhaps, for local reasons, while highlighting a non-Muslim background of a foreigner having found as many others non-Jewish (Muslims from around a globe inclusively) a refuge in the Jewish state.

A movie is the new dimension opening of Israel to me and, perhaps, to many non-Israelis.
