Movie Reviews of Walk on WaterMovie Review: Float on the Dead Sea... Summary: 2 Stars
...or float on Cloud Nine in a homoerotic dream. In the end, this touchy-feely, feel-good, pro-gay wallow comes down to little more. It lures the viewer with the promise of an Israeli-made movie about a self-doubting Mossad agent tasked with finding an aged Nazi. Quirks in the scripting and direction, however, quickly become apparent. The audience is informed that the sought war criminal has disappeared from his home in Argentina. But--if the Mossad knew where the old man was living, why was he not apprehended there? And then there are the oddly unpeopled tourist sites like the Sea of Galilee, where the gay character attempts buddy-bonding and pretends to "walk on water" (like Jesus and his disciples, the film all but screams). When the male leads shower naked on the (vacant) Dead Sea beach and discuss circumcision, many viewers must begin to wonder--and to become impatient, if not uncomfortable. And, alas, patience will be further strained as the plot dribbles along, without climax, to a maudlin conclusion. Overly long and plodding, the film--though decently shot and performed--will likely result in a dissatisfaction common to more cheaply produced fare. Many audience members may feel had by a movie that advertises gritty suspense and delivers soft-soaped propaganda.
