The film suffers from a lack of timeliness.

Rating: 2/6 --
Yet another well-meaning but meandering doc exploring life (and death) during wartime.

Disarmingly casual.

Distance tends to simplify our view of anything, and this video humanizes the situation on the ground mostly by complicating it...

Chicago Reader
"Where's the path to the future? I don't see it." A tracking shot of two boys running along the sidewalk freezes on one, caught between now and a future that remains unknowable.
PopMatters
Rating: 3/4 --
A surprisingly warm first-person video diary, blending a series of reunions with relatives and footage of the bazaars, streets, homes and everyday perils of life in post-Saddam, mid-occupation and mid-chaos Iraq.
Chicago Tribune
Rating: 2/5 --
Nice Bombs feels as sad and directionless as the country it documents.

Product Description:
Usama Alshaibi's documentary NICE BOMBS: A JOURNEY BACK TO IRAQ follows the director as he visits his homeland for the first time in nearly a quarter century. He discusses how the country has changed since his childhood, and shows how the members of his family display their ease around the explosions that happen near their home on a regular basis. Their calm reaction to one of these incidents provides the film with its title.
