«JeruZalem»... what a dreadful movie. Perhaps that is why people viciously judged «The Golem», the Paz brothers' next film, because of this one that deserves all scorn. I saw them backwards. That big Z in the title must have warned me that it was cinema grade Z.
Now, if you liked the plaintive camerawoman from «The Blair Witch Project», who made you see the story from her point of view, through the camera she handles without stopping crying and screaming, then maybe «JeruZalem» may look good to you and you would like it.
The annoying and silly story follows Sarah and Rachel, two Jewish-American women who go on vacation to Israel, but instead of going to Tel Aviv as planned, they make a little trip to Jerusalem, after the ass of Kevin, an anthropologist they meet in the plane. Once there they have a great time with a local Arab called Omar. But they do not know that doomsday is coming, and the trip is going to turn really ugly. After 48 minutes in which we only saw the quartet having fun, in the remaining 46 minutes, the cake is turned and we see them flee from some winged zombies and be slaughtered one by one, as they run through the streets and caverns with Omar's father and two young Israeli soldiers. Only one person is left alive ... at least before the final credits roll up.
If it is already annoying to see the story from Sarah's point of view, it makes it worse that she is supposedly wearing "smart glasses" that take orders, recognize faces, accept calls and messages from social network and just do what they want, like playing a rock track while Sarah rescues Kevin from a madhouse.
Dedicated to their family, the Paz brothers were possibly disowned for making such a bad movie.
