Nina's Tragedies Reviews
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Engagingly odd and full of sad, funny moments.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Director/writer Savi Gabizon has a great idea. But he ruins it by devoting too much time to colorful but unnecessary characters.
San Francisco Chronicle
Jonathan Curiel
The dry humor is disarming. The ensemble cast is engaging and interesting to watch. And the main plot, as it were (will Nadav and Nina find respective happiness?), is suspenseful.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
A gently quirky, touching comedy from Israel about a young boy's infatuation with his aunt.
Chicago Tribune
Achy Obejas
Nina's Tragedies is full of gentle, labyrinthian turns, sly and sweet.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
It's well acted, and well written, but it rarely delivers the emotional resonance you keep expecting.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
The chief problem with this exasperating and shamelessly contrived award-winning Israeli movie: It doesn't know when to stop telling and start showing.
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
Passing eccentricities of character, but serious trouble staging honest and coherent emotional scenes....a surplus of preciousness and a deficit of truth-ringing reality.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
A film that takes in the topsy-turvy world of contemporary Tel Aviv through an adolescent's distracted glances.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Laura Kelly
A humorous warts-and-all portrayal of a family.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
A thoughtful and satisfying film of the sort American filmmakers rarely achieve.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
The path to the grave is often a bumpy fusion of the serene and the shrill.
Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
Writer-director Savi Gabizon brings a startling freshness to the coming-of-age tale.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
If, at times, he lays on the surrealist touches with a trowel, it's a small price to pay for the goofy tenderness with which he ministers to his hapless, self-absorbed characters, and bestows on them a hard-won peace.
Variety
Scott Foundas
Casts an ambitious net that ultimately falls out of the control of writer-director Savi Gabizon.
Village Voice
Leslie Camhi
With improbable charm, Gabizon knits it all together, his characters' sexual obsessions and earthiness tempered by a soulful melancholy.
culturevulture.net
Arthur Lazere
The comedy is feather-light and the emotions are drawn on situation, rather than on genuine involvement with substantively developed characters.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Gavison's whimsical and melancholy tragicomedy keeps the Israeli-Arab conflict in the background.
San Diego Metropolitan
Jean Lowerison
A sad little comedy with enough surprises to keep the viewer guessing, and fine performances by all.
Philadelphia Daily News
Sono Motoyama
A richly evoked family drama.
