Leave your thoughts about Zero Motivation.
| Reel Talk OnlineCandice FrederickFirst time feature writer/director Talya Lavie impressively creates a witty and tangible dramedy about working women hampered by their own stagnation. |
| Critic's NotebookMartin TsaiIn a way the film is radically post-feminist, with women unapologetically succumbing to instincts both natural and cultural with no regard for the codes of conduct in the male-oriented microcosm. |
| Spliced PersonalitySean BurnsIt sneaks up on you as it goes along, offering unexpected shadings and variations on the minor-key absurdism. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranSatiric, surreal, unexpected and at times wildly funny, Zero Motivation is a savage black comedy that eviscerates an unexpected target: the Israeli army. |
| Toronto StarBruce DemaraTo the panoply of films that explore the banality and inanity of army life, here's a worthy addition told from a refreshing perspective: that of young women conscripts in the Israel Defence Forces. |
| The PlaylistRodrigo PerezAn absorbing office saga and diverting dark comedy, Zero Motivation is a surprisingly insightful coming-of-age tale, utilizing the milieu of the military to look at desire, loneliness, identity, fitting in and many aspects of everyday complex female life. |
| AV ClubVadim RizovMelancholy climactic trajectory aside, Zero Motivation is primarily very funny. |
| RogerEbert.comGodfrey CheshireLike classic military comedies from “Catch-22” to “M*A*S*H,” Talya Lavie’s Zero Motivation offers its own appealing blend of irreverence and absurdism. |
| New York TimesManohla DargisEverything looks authentic, at least on the surface, from the desert dust to the messy desks and the sad, barren barracks. The characters, however, are largely cartoons, and their day-to-day exchanges are as vaguely defined as their interior lives. |
| Film-Forward.comKent TurnerThe characters, and the film itself, are messy, in the best, freewheeling way. The film stands out for its recklessness and confident storytelling. |
