Ever Again



Important film but no solutions offered
Ever Again is a powerful film. Costner's narration is a great addition to the film. He speaks clearly and in an appropriate tone I feel fits the scene.

Ever Again presents a horrifying picture of modern anti Semitism, but the film never suggests a solution to the problem or how it is being handled.

Many say the film's stance on criticism of Israel as being anti Semetic is not well thought out. I disagree. Even Israelis criticize their own governement, just as anyone else in the world. What the film is trying to point out is the idea Israel should not exist incites anti Semetic action by groups around the world.

I wish the film makers would have made this idea more clear. It is an important message to take into account and I don't feel everyone who watched the film understood this point unless they had lived through it.

Wow!
A must-see for EVERYONE. As a teacher, this is an invaluable tool for me in showing European antisemitism - I highly recommend owning a copy.

Unbalanced . . . Yet Eye-Opening
Brings to the forefront many incidents showcasing modern anti-Semitism in Europe. But it's approach is incendiary and unbalanced, and in the wrong hands, this documentary could be used as a hate tool against Moslems. Still, sections are extremely eye-opening. Definitely should not be used as an educational tool for young minds who are approaching the topic for the first time.
