Amateur movie with Big budget

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Although the movie is not easy to watch, it forces you to realize that there are other aspects of the Jewish religion and the kabbalah.One of the main actors, named him, is forced to choose a path in a crucial point of his life leaving him no choice to take drastic measures. The religious intolerance toward him is something that we have all seen in antisemitic movies and documentary films, but was never seen on the other side, where the people from his own religion take drastic matters into their own hands.A very interesting and complex movie. I strongly advise it to be watched.

This is not an easy film to forget.Quite some time ago, I attended an evening of Rosenblatt's films. Mainly, or so I thought, to see the award-winning Human Remains. But the film I found myself awake all night thinking about was King of the Jews.The film forces us to look in the eyes of our own religious intolerance, whether Jew or Gentile. I almost thing the film may be more poignant for Christians than for Jews, as the knowledge that the film is coming from "the other side" makes it even more personally challenging.
