Film-Forward.com - 8/10 by Nora Lee MandelIn extraordinary circumstances with quasi-documentary style, two genuine individuals search through powerful images of a country torn apart by religion, politics and war.
Laramie Movie Scope - 6/10 by Robert RotenMost war movies don't cover this painful subject, the loss of the innocents, but this film does. Attention must be paid.
User Review - 10/10 by Nabil Kdeep,intense , acute and sadly unforgettable..I suggest see it to everybody!
User Review - 10/10 by Paul KWow! Powerful ... Incredible ... Thought Provoking ... Extremely Well Made ... Well Worth Seeing ...
User Review - 10/10 by Marta RFilmed on location during actual pre- and post-combat periods, "Under the Bombs" could almost be a documentary for all the realism it captures in its quest to show the impact of religious warfare on innocent civilians.
User Review - 10/10 by Henrietta ANada Abou Farhat is fantastic in this film its a great road movie cut with news footage and video of the conflict. The inclusion of everyday Lebanese people adding to the film's realism. Great anti war message it also highlights how "Jnoub" the South of Lebenon, away from the Solidaire penthouses, new shoping centres and 5 star hotels of the North, is underfunded and neglected by the goverment.
User Review - 8/10 by Frédéric Hexcellent movie ...really showed how the war was and how a mom will do everything to find her son ....A must watch
User Review - 8/10 by Richard BPowerful anti-war film against the backdrop of a very real humanitarian crisis. Brave and vital filmmaking to highlight current problems in the Middle East.
User Review - 8/10 by Shiraz CA fantastically executed film set in the immediate aftermath of the Israeli bombing of South Lebanon - their extraordinarily disproportionate response to the kidnapping of Isreali soldiers by Palestinian refugee cum Islamist movement, Hizbollah. In a region dripping with the blood of bad political decisions, this film opts for impact not by looking at the political context, but by following the fate of a self-exiled woman who has come back from her rich lifestyle in Dubai to find her sister and her son in south Lebanon. Structured like a road movie, the lead character is taken by a taxi driver as they move from place to precarious place in search of Zeina's family. The taxi driver becomes closely involved in his passenger's cause, and also makes a journey of personal change and discovery. Four things make this film stand out: the stunning performance by the Nada Abou Farhat; the shaky hand-camera work that gives it a documentary feel; the use of Lebanese passer-bys throughout the film giving it a raw intensity; and the dramatic portrayal of the physical devastation of the landscape and the infrastructure, obviously filmed very soon after the bombing. Although not directly political, this is a bold anti-war film that leaves one with a sense of how the war was, like all the conflicts in the region, most devastating for Arab civilians.
User Review - 8/10 by Elisa TA powerful movie that showed the horror of war...it was made after the latest Israeli war on Lebanon....
