Checkpoint Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Richard Porton
Remarkably, the depiction of the indignities suffered by the Palestinians is untainted by rhetorical excess or heavy-handed editorializing.
Movie Habit
Marty Mapes
Tells an interesting story without imposing an authoritative voice on the film
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Of all Israeli films on this subject, this is the most unbiased and honest and also one of the most valuable.

Collin Souter
Checkpoint adds a a whole other dimension to the debate over civil liberties by letting its unflinching footage speak for itself.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
This grueling Israeli documentary filmed in the occupied territories of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip leaves you infuriated and mystified.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Checkpoint is an unflinchingly honest Israeli documentary about the humiliations of the Palestinians every day and the pressures on the occupying soldiers.
Offoffoff
Joshua Tanzer
Director Yoav Shamir has done too little to find significance in what we see. But we still get some sense of the checkpoints as flashpoints, where security begets hostility.
