6.7 / 10
Translated from swedish: Miral is a story told through the fates of several women, and unfortunately, the superficial framework narrative - the objective storytelling - becomes an obstacle that prevents the true psychology from emerging.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: Those who grasp for too much risk missing the entire piece. Julian Schnabel clearly has epic ambitions for his film.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: At times gripping, believable and beautifully filmed, "Miral" is an ambitious and serious portrayal of an urgent subject matter.

2 / 10
Translated from swedish: It's almost impressively awful, and it doesn't get any better when the acclaimed director occasionally tries to apply his subjective storytelling style to the film.

2 / 10
Translated from swedish: The establishment of the state of Israel in part of Palestine. Armed resistance. The Six-Day War. Occupied territories. PLO. The West Bank. The Intifada. Julian Schnabel reaches for an enormous scope when he tells the story of Israel from 1948 to 1994 through four chapters, each centered on the fate of four women.

1. Dagens Nyheter
Translated from swedish: Motherless Miral finds safety at a boarding school for refugees before later becoming involved in a terrorist act. In Julian Schnabel's direction, the personal relationships are the strength, not the political conflict.
