| The PlaylistAndy CrumpMenkin can't bring himself to follow any of the picture's many roads to the end. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleIt takes a while, but once the Israeli film "Is That You?" leaves a certain amateurishness behind, it finds a soft, welcoming space for melancholy and connection. |
| New York TimesKen JaworowskiLike a funny friend in a melancholy mood, this film has humor at its center, even during its saddest scenes. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferClunky, lazy, stilted and implausible. It might as well take place on another planet. Its running time of 80 minutes feels more like 2 hours. |
| User ReviewSN AExtraordinarily brilliant indie film. Heartfelt and touching journey through the meaning of life, opportunities lost, regrets, and the hope for a better outcome. |
| User ReviewJ DI think the film is very engaging, with it's themes of choices and regrets, and a great performance by the lead, Alon Aboutboul. He really keeps the viewer invested. I'd like to see him in more American films. But the thing I appreciated most about the film was its inherent sense of benevolence. I've seen Danny Menkin's documentaries like Dolphin Boy and they all have a deep sense of humanity. |
