Title: Ignorance
Review: As a romantic comedy it's standard fare. Ben Stiller does his usual array of funny facial expressions, and the female interest is very watchable. My main problem was Stiller's character's supreme ignorance of the arab-israeli dispute. It seemed as though he was trying to trivialise it. Coming from a supposed Rabbi - this was insensitive in the extreme. If this subject had to be brought into a harmless rom-com, then surely it could have been done with maybe a little more tact? Not all of us see suicide bombings and the humiliation of a people as light hearted rom com material.
Is the review positive or negative?
