   Is Omar a good movie?

   • The ambiguity Abu-Assad uses to keep the lines at least somewhat blurry makes the film more challenging, and no doubt to some, more frustrating. Omar, however, is easy to like. He’s a romantic pushed by circumstances and small humiliations into a role he is neither prepared for nor, arguably, deserves.

   Where can I watch Omar?

   • Watch Omar with a subscription on Netflix, rent on Prime Video, or buy on Prime Video. Twisty and riveting, Omar is a well-directed crime drama with uncommon depth. Arrested after the death of an Israeli soldier, a Palestinian baker (Adam Bakri) agrees to work as an informant, but his true motives and alliances remain hidden.

   Is Omar a political thriller?

   • Omar is a relatively undidactic take on the lives of ordinary Palestinians with no choice but to endure the indignities imposed by the constraints of Israel's "separation wall." Omar is an obvious political thriller which consistently, insistently attempts to steer us in a particular direction.

   Is Omar a true story?

   • But they are not. Omar is soon caught in a police sweep after the killing of an Israeli soldier, tortured and possibly turned into an informant by agent Rami (Waleed Zuaiter). At this point the film moves from love story into something more akin to a street-level espionage thriller.

   Feb 21, 2014 · "Omar" is a thriller and a romance with unabashedly melodramatic elements (there's even a love triangle), all of which are brought into stark relief by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Helped along by an amazing cast of mostly first-time actors, "Omar" feels very fresh due to its attitude, approach, and the fact that it offers no solutions.
