Hummus Full Trailer may be an indie action-comedy out of one of the smaller Middle East countries but it packs a powerful punch that global audiences will love. From Tarantino-paced action sequences featuring Eastwood-inspired, iconic characters to dozens of comedic hits strewn perfectly across Hebrew, Arabic, English, French, and Russian, this film is the ultimate ode to great cinematic experiences of the 20th century. But it's not just nostalgia. Kobrovsky, his creative partner Itay Barkan, and their stellar ensemble of superstar talent deliver a refreshingly new and surprisingly honest portrayal of life in the Middle East. Despite the constant, surface level tensions in both the film and reality, there's an underlying sense of cooperation, understanding, and even community between all the different factions regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, and economic class. This seems truer to my real life experiences on the ground than most mainstream media would depict and I applaud this film for capturing that spirit. After all, at the end of a hard day, we all just want to sit down and eat some hummus in peace.
