De repente, el paraíso

Excellent film , very well produced, and a poetic view of our crazy world

Don't be fooled that it's a comedy movie. If you want to laugh, you'll be bored with this movie. An anti-militarism art film. Making you smile. I think it's beautiful

This is a movie that will bring you great delight, if you have a bit of patience; each scene is full of meaning, metaphors, symbols, and overwhelming beauty. Beauty of a country field or of an empty city, of the passers-by who seem on a catwalk, or of the nostalgic music. But it's not just pleasure, it's also fun and troubling at the same time, warning about the absurd taking over in all societies, about the disconnection in the middle of the crowd, about the fate of the artist who is left aside. There is hope though, as long as there are still people who care and who don't give up, like the director himself, faithful to his artistic choices, despite the pressure to take sides. The soul untamed by rules, like the angel chased by police in one scene. Oh, and the irony is everywhere, maybe at its best when Gael's character steps in. Pure joy of watching a movie with a heart. Definitely for authentic cinema lovers.

How to speak about Palestine with comedy?

Suleiman uses absurdity to reflect about the contradictions in New York and Paris. Militarism, exile as seen in his homeland are elsewhere.

The movie is beautifuly directed and edited.

This is the right movie for anyone who is tired of "modern" comedies. Aside from its stunning Cinematography and extremely clever use of Music (the film has nearly no dialogue), its humour is highly intelligent, not always obvious, and i must say that i was delighted to see it on the big screen.
