Leave your thoughts about 7 Days in Entebbe.
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferSpellbinding! A rousing, intelligent and engrossing thriller! It's this year's Argo! |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordThe production, from the hijacking itself through to the rescue and aftermath, is solid |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertTaut with anxiety, "7 Days in Entebbe" is a powerful example of how dramatizing a well-recorded chapter of history can still generate hard-hitting suspense. |
| Film InquiryAndrew WinterI'm sure some will accuse it of making excuses for terrorism or going easy on the hijackers, but that misses the point. It's a heartfelt plea for a peaceful settlement to a seemingly intractable situation. |
| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanThe dance itself makes a much more powerful, and ultimately poetic, point. On the most superficial level, it serves as a blunt metaphor for the elaborate choreography of the rescue operation, which entailed its own intense rehearsals, undertaken in a scale mock-up of the Entebbe airport that had been re-created back in Israel. |
| Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshThe story is larger than life. Padilha brings a frenetic, authentic style and flair to this depiction and never loses sight of its larger messages and themes. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyThe film comes to crackling life during the planning and climactic execution of the raid. And Padilha, the Brazilian director behind 2007’s "Elite Squad," knows how to stage these white-knuckle sequences, especially when he cuts back and forth between the on-the-ground tactical assault and a modern dance performance featuring one of the commando’s girlfriends. |
| HollywoodInToto.comChristian TotoWant a biased take on the 1976 hijacking? You won't find it here ... phew! |
| Paste MagazineOktay Ege KozakWith a deft docudrama approach (that doesn’t overdo the usual extra-shaky handheld camera and overtly grainy visual tone), Padilha shows a commendable technical control over that rare movie that could have benefitted from being much longer. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekHas some strong points but makes a few strange choices that hobble its effectiveness. |
