An appealing coming-of-age tale that takes on the difficult issues of mental illness and conformity.
June 15, 2007 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… -
If [director] Shaul means for his indictment to have some contemporary resonance, to hint at conformist pressures in the current Israeli state, he fails to give us any of the blocks needed to build that thesis.
June 15, 2007 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… -
This is a film from the heart, from a firsthand familiarity that yields conflicted emotions over the gap between an ideal and its realization.
January 19, 2007 -
A tendency toward broad novelistic storytelling... robs Sweet Mud of a focus.
September 20, 2006 -
The plot may sound familiar, but director/writer Dror Shaul makes it fresh with his vivid and often bitterly funny depiction of the film's setting, a kibbutz in the 1970s.

If the film is an indictment of anything it is how the collective experience of the kibbutz is at odds with family loyalties.

Jun 14, 2007A decent story of a mother and son who have a not-so-great existence in a kibbutz system. A good depiction of how sometimes the strongest communities can effectively abandon one of their own.John B Super Reviewer
