Nine out of ten times I rent an Israeli film, I regret it.
They’re horribly boring.
I just checked out "Sallah." It’s billed as "Israel’s all-time classic" and it is supposedly the highest grossing movie in the history of Israeli cinema.
It’s the quality of an American high school production.
It’s excruciatingly amateurish.
If this is the best Israeli cinema has to offer, then I’m going Iranian. At least they know how to make good movies (and atomic bombs).
I watched Sallah last night and thank the good Lord it put me to sleep.
What is my idea of a great movie? The D-Day landing near the opening of Saving Private Ryan. That’s about as exciting a 15 minutes of cinema as I’ve seen.
I went to the acupuncturist yesterday. He said I had a strong pulse. Normally it is weak.
"I was just watching Saving Private Ryan," I said. "It got my adrenalin pumping."
Man, what I wouldn’t give to kill some Nazis right now.
