I was very disappointed with The Clay Bird.

I found that the story chopped and changed from one character to another all to frequently, failing to stay long enough on one part of the story for you to really care what was happening.

Yes, some of it was beautifully shot, but I have said this before with other films, is it possible to not to have glorious scenery in a place as georgraphically beautiful as Bangladesh?

I would rather the story concentrated on 2 or perhaps 3 of the characters, giving a far more detailed account of life in this traumatic part of Bangladesh's history.

I see a lot of foreign language films but up until last night I had never seen an Israeli movie, probably due to poor distribution of these kind of films in the UK.

I thought Broken Wings was quite brilliant. Really quite moving and it leaves you with an enormous feeling of hope for this rather disfunctional family.

When I read a couple of reviews of this film I was expecting a fairly miserable ride, but it is full of humour which keeps it from sinking into absolute despair.

I would recommend this film to anyone, it's a shame more people don't get the opportunity to see this type of film.

It gets 8 out of 10, and I will be keeping an eye out for more of Nir Bergman's work in the future.

I saw this film 3 days ago and it hasn't really stayed with me. It was perhaps "worthy" more than anything.

My main point is that most reviewers mention is the "stunning cinematography", and whilst I agree with that to a point, I would like to ask if anyone has ever made a film in Kenya that had crap cinematography?

I stand to be shot down here, but is it actually possible to not make glorious cinematic use of one the most beautiful places on the planet?
