The Attack (2012)
Why it is titled "The Attack"
25 January 2014 - 1 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
When the film begins, we think it is about a suicide bombing attack that kills innocent Israeli children. Then, we start to think that maybe "the attack" refers to the aggression Dr. Jaafari, the bomber's husband, will face from Israeli authorities and his Israeli friends. But that is not why it's called "The Attack". It is an intrapersonal conflict which Dr. Jaafari faces. It is an attack on his ego, judgment, love, and trust that he had in his relationship with his wife. It is also an attack on his personal identity--does he identify as an Arab, Israeli, husband, uncle, or doctor? The film does not provide answers, only questions, to those who are willing to accept them.
