Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Knoller is wonderful as the emotionally cut-off, yet vulnerable Yossi, who yearns for something more from life, but feels both terror at the prospect and unworthiness to claim it.

fresh:
Yossi is an early spring breeze of a film - too delicate to be substantial but definitely holding the promise of warmth.

fresh:
It's serious about its characters and their emotions, but still finds room for humor.

fresh:
"Yossi" has an air of lightness but never feels insignificant.

rotten:
Eytan Fox depicts modern gay life and contemporary Tel Aviv with sympathy and knowing insight, and he excels at creating casual rapport among actors; yet in film after film he undermines these gifts with hamfisted melodramatic plotting.
