Litvak's movie almost immediately barges across the line separating the comically absurd from the outright obnoxious.

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
Rotten

Manages to be broad, mawkish and mean-spirited all at once.

Jason Anderson, Globe and Mail
Fresh

A haunting and disturbing film.

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Rotten

This abrasive Passover comedy-drama is extremely difficult to sit through, and if its makers weren't all Jewish, it would be considered anti-Semitic.

Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Fresh

... worth a look.
