Frode Opsahl That's my summary. Okey: Great acting, nice paste, a bit unfilled - but I enjoyed it very much. Perfect start of the morning. Especially liked the long scenes with Murray and Willis, acting-wise. Laughed a little, cried a little, had an overall good time.Want to laugh your brains out? This is not the movie.Want to FEEL?Perhaps not.A bit of both, although not DYING?Try it. Are there ten lines now? This is my first "review", I think, just thought the 5-er was a bit unfair.Frode O.

LeonLouisRicci There was No Way that this Little Film was going to Escape Controversy. No Matter what Your Political Stripe or Country of Origin, it was Inevitable that in this Noble Effort there were bound to be Things that Offend, Outrage, and Disappoint."Tradition is the illusion of permanence.".......Woody AllenNo Doubt, in the Far Future, Our Current Time with its Borders, Language Barriers, Religious Differences, and general overall Mistrust and Hatred for Anything or Anyone "Different", will be Studied and most likely Viewed with much Wonder and Amazement, along with Anger and Pity.We can take some sort of Solace knowing that our Current Paradigms and Dogmas will eventually be Tempered by the Winds and Sands of Time. In the Meantime the Mind Boggling and Hurtful ways We go about our "Business" of Everyday Life in the 21st Century, You Either Laugh or Cry.Director Barry Levinson and Bill Murray choose to Laugh. Or to be more Precise, try and make Us Laugh. The Movie has been Destroyed by the Critics and One Wonders what any of Them have done Lately to find some path to "Peace in the Middle East".Overall, the Film is Worth a Watch for its Heart and Intent. It Deserves a Hearing, just on its Effort alone. Whether You Find it Funny, Pertinent, Poignant, or Pathetic, it's at least Trying to ride the Peace Train in a Wild World.

Argemaluco Rock the Kasbah had a provocative idea "based on true events", but its emotional strength is unfortunately lost due to the narrative clumsiness and irregular tone from this horrible film. The main problem of Rock the Kasbah is a screenplay saturated of characters and improbable situations which never end up forming a coherent story. Besides, the rhythm and edition of Rock the Kasbah are so poor that they never reach that authentic organic flow to take us logically from one scene to the other. In Rock the Kasbah, things happen due to the simple whim from screenwriter Mitch Glazer, who wasn't able to adequately connect them with each other. I think the screenplay needed much more work (at least two or three revisions in order to tune the details and find a better balance between the disparate elements). And the same can be said about the edition... even though I wouldn't blame editor Aaron Yanes either, because there are occasions in which there's simply not the necessary material to rescue a film. As for the cast, Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Zooey Deschanel, Kate Hudson, Danny McBride, Scott Caan, Fahim Fazil and Leem Lubany do whatever they can with their poorly written characters. In conclusion, Rock the Kasbah is an absolute disaster, and another one of the various missteps director Barry Levinson has had in this century (such as Bandits, Envy and What Just Happened).
