Even though the documentary was told through eyewitness accounts and footage taken by victims and terrorists alike, it was denounced as a fabrication.
One reviewer in IMDb wrote: “The story feels disjointed, leaving you wondering what the point is. The acting is painfully bad, and the dialogue feels unnatural.”
Another pointed to the “surreal” depiction of events, expressing hope that such a nightmare was an “unrealistic fiction”.
Some viewers alleged that the film served as propaganda for the Israeli government, questioning its motives during a time of ongoing conflict.
“Do we need more 'Dancing Israelis'?” another asked on IMDb, suggesting that the documentary attempts to manufacture consent for government actions amidst an active genocide in Gaza.
Some claimed that positive reviews predominantly come from Israeli audiences.
“It feels like those praising this film are primarily based in Israel, which might explain the high ratings for what many see as a mediocre documentary filled with inaccuracies,” remarked one person.
