AHX pretends to be some kind of social reflection on today's US relations between blacks and whites. It also reminds that neonazi still exists. Well it falls far behind its objectives. The "redemption" part is so stupid and expected. The line is not straight with many interrogations. Why? In the end, the movie is too simplistic to be a social masterpiece and too ambitious to be a good action movie. Norton, well, we saw him in better conditions than this piece of lost time. The only interesting part is the direction. But again difficult to be totally satisfied. Too many slow parts. The b&w / color idea is so blatant. I just want to praise the photography that is extraordinary and makes me willing to see this guy's other movies. As a conclusion, I am shocked to see that Americans consider this movie as controversial and a good thinking about their racial issues.
This is the first movie I watch from Amos Gitaï. At first I was not so impressed and during the five first minutes, I thougth I would switch to some US blockbusters. Also, the trailer is terrible and lets you think you will go through some Bergman-like movie without the appalling.
Actually, Kadosh is quite good. The movie is about the condition of women parting their life with orthodox Jews. It does not mean that all women are necessarily victims. Rivka is strongly bound to her life, and when she is rejected by the community because she is sterile, against her husband's wishes, the only way for her is the death. On the other hand, her sister is eager to find another life, and will eventually leave.
The plot is quite traditional but actors are very good, and the painting by Amos of this almost-tragedy is magnificent. He never tries to condemn anyone, but wants to highlight that in spite of social conditions, choice is always possible. In the end, it is quite a positive. Images are beautiful. Main flaw is some useless scenes. But OK. Go for it!
