filmalamosa This movie is amateurish--basically poorly written directed and acted---don't waste your time. PC garbage.I was tempted several times to turn it off the quality was so bad but it is advertised as a gay movie...that sort of kept me half tuned in. Nothing is more of an anathema to gays than to have the hot man of the story go after the sister a la Brideshead Revisted.It is pro-Israeli propaganda that is so syrupy, clichéd and stupid that it backfires... don't waste your time or money.There are lots of good Israeli movies including gay themed movies. Watch Eyes Wide Open instead.DO NOT RECOMMEND

intelearts Walk on Water is a film worth catching. The plot of the Mossad man asked to go undercover to watch the German grandson and Kibbutzim granddaughter of a major Nazi is already fascinating - but the script and acting delivers massively in making this more than simply a drama. It would be wrong to even label it a thriller - it is a complex, yet beautiful piece, with a good sense of pace, that centers around a variety of themes involving identity and international belonging.The wider notions of culture and identity and even sexuality that are raised here are both poignant and interesting. It is a film that is easy to watch, but raises at the same time interesting questions while you're watching it. The mix of tourism, kibbutzim, police work, and the city life coupled with the contrast between the individuals makes this a satisfying watch.All in all this Israeli production shines with intelligence, good drama, and a sense of values that not inherently obvious invade and stay after the credits roll. Recommended.

mike-2923 My main objective watching this movie was to enjoy the Israel scenery being born in Israel and maybe the plot looked interesting. However! I was delighfuly surprised. I thought the movie was excellent! It has suspense, it was captivating, historical from multiple point of views, it made you think and even cry. Great start and ending. It has all elements that should be in a great movie. Acting was also spot on with a good casting. I watch allot of movies and am usually with everyone else on the IMDb ratings. I don't rate 8.0 for just any movie, but this was one worth it. You should add this to your must see list. If you have netflx, stream it, I did. Enjoy.

Galina "Walk on Water" is courageous film, confidently directed by Eytan Fox based on the screenplay written by his partner Gal Uchovsky and well acted. Its subject is a Mossad's agent whose new mission is to hunt the former Nazi criminal who lives nowadays somewhere in South America. In order to trace him, Eyal (Lior Ashkenazi) takes a job as a tourist guide for the grandson of war criminal - sociable, open, friendly young German, Axel. Axel arrives to Israel to visit his sister Pia who chose to live in Israel and work in a kibbutz and to talk her into reconciling with their parents. Eyal drives Alex in his SUV, shows him the country. They sit on the coast of Dead Sea, both smeared by celebrated therapeutic mud from neck to toes. In another scene, Alex tries to walk on the water of Kinarteth (the Sea of Galilee); three of them visit the gay- bar in Tel Aviv - Alex does not hide his sexual orientation.The characters are interesting and compelling. The story is engaging and I feel connected to the movie the way very few movies make me. I recognize the places I've been to and I've come to love and to dream of seeing them again and again. The film starts in Istanbul, Turkey on the boat over the Bosphor and the guide talks about the bridge between Europe and Asia. I've been on the boat like that and I saw the bridge. Then the action takes place in Israel and I was happy to recognize Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, The Sea of Galilee (Kinereth), The Dead Sea where one just floats without swimming, the desert.The plot moves from Israel to Berlin where Eyal is visiting with his new friend's family. Alex's and Pia's father celebrates his anniversary and for the first time, a helpless dying old man arrives to Berlin, the Nazi criminal, Axel's and Pia's grandfather, Eyal's target. The film explores the moral dead ends of the modern society full of hostility and old unpaid debts. Eyal remembers the history of his country and its people, he knows not from the books about Holocaust. He is a soldier and must be merciless but he has to learn something about understanding from his young German friend. Film attracts by the non-standard approach to the familiar themes of religious prejudices, homophobia, neo-fascism, newest terror and other sources of the hatred, which destroys the world. It would not surprise me to find out that the film has many detractors in Germany, Palestine, and in Israel. The final is a little too neat and belongs to the modern fairy tale genre. I see it as the director's dream that he wanted to come true - the people with different backgrounds, mentalities, history, and preferences would understand one another and would come toward one another with the open hearts and clean thoughts. Dreams, dreams...
