    Lively but shallow

    Watched the movie at Thessaloniki Film Festival I enjoyed the Vanishing Soldier - The direction is pacey, the main character likeable and it gives a glimpe of daily life in today's Israel that is even more timely at this time (Fall 2023), after the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    However I have to say I enjoyed it despite its flaws, which lie mostly in the script. A script that tries to balance betweem drama and screwball comedy at times and in the end cannot find the right analogy. There are too many comic substories which push crediblity at a point where it makes it improbable, without really adding anything. In the end it feels a bit like "American Pie and the Israeli army."
