Rating: 4/5 --
Should be a revelation not only as an expertly crafted drama but a peek at the archaic, ridiculously unfair customs of a medieval court system designed specifically to disfavor the plight and role of woman.

Ultimately the movie is wearying, but then it's likely supposed to be. If Viviane's going through the wringer, you're going through the wringer too.

It's tough and unsparing, but the grimness is never gratuitous.

Seattle Times
If the Elkabetz siblings take orthodox marriage laws to task, the look and tone feels more Scandinavian in the vein of Carl Theodor Dreyer, a great champion of women, like Viviane, who held their own against religious hypocrisy.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Despite Ronit and Shlomi's plight for social awareness, though, they never lose sight that Gett is first and foremost a domestic drama, and this is why it merits enduring their relentless pressure-cooker approach.

Gett is holistic in its emotional captivation-it's funny, heart-warming, painful, saddening, tense, contemplative, and cathartic.
