The Insult uses its familiar courtroom drama framework to deliver a hard-hitting statement on modern Middle Eastern politics that's as gripping as it is thought-provoking.

"The Insult" is optimistic enough to leave the door open to hope. But it's also realistic enough to only leave it ajar. Feb 14, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

From their first encounter, hostile mechanic Tony and older, closed-off construction foreman Yasser are an impossible force and an immovable object. Jul 6, 2019 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The Insult holds back too much, starting out as high-minded camp before settling into an attempt to say something meaningful. Jun 5, 2019 | Full Review…

As a character study and political piece, it's too scattershot to make an impact, but its quality when in court is undeniable - it's unpolished, but not a failure. Feb 28, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
