   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.

   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.

   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.
