Rating: 4/5 --
This moving, emotionally concise human drama is easily one of the most remarkable films about the unending conflict in the Middle East.

"The Other Son'' is played with warmth and conviction by its cast. But it's also a little pat and toothless, set in an Israel where not even the notorious border crossings seem that difficult.

Rating: 3/4 --
Lévy generally succeeds in creating a compelling, humanistic family drama, even if some viewers may reject the movie's final note of optimism.

The Other Son seems tailor-made to make a point. And that wishful thinking takes the power away from what might have been a subtle, but more effective, film.

Rating: B --
The intention here is plain - we are all human, we can all be family - but Levy weaves the mix of identity crises, cultural mingling and common ground slyly.

Levy handles with aplomb what could easily have been a messy mix of emotions and politics.
