Omar (2013) - 96 min

Omar is a Palestinian drama film directed by Hany Abu-Assad.
Starring Adam Bakri, Eyad Hourani, Samer Bisharat, Waleed Zuaiter & Leem Lubany.
Omar is a baker who climbs the separation wall to visit his lover Nadia. Omar and his childhood friends plots and executes the assassination of an Israeli guard. Unfortunately, Next day Omar was captured by Israeli authorities and later he made a pact with them in exchange for his release.
Betrayal is the main theme that discusses here and its after effects. It's an engaging thriller and Hany Abu-Assad's direction is very effective in every manner. The film offers some strong performances from each character and Adam Bakri, who portraits Omar role is the key factor of this movie. Leem Lubany as Nadia makes the love scenes more cute and innocent. The two chasing scenes that shot on Palestine streets were quite impressive and well staged too. Overall, It is an outstanding piece of cinema and highly recommended to all movie lovers.
Verdict: Good
