It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
"It's a shame." These are the last words in this movie. It's a shame that the ending is not the other way round. What beautiful scenes: life and love are stirring in this young man and this young women, no matter what the past and what the future. Life takes them by the hand, life let's the dead rest and turns their faces towards the light, towards love, towards the future! This is so divine, this is god speaking. But alas, they are driven out of paradise all to quickly, the teacher puts an end to it and destroys it with one sentence: "It's a shame." In the hearts of the Jewish people, there should be flowering gardens. Not concrete walls like in this movie. What a shame!
