PLOT
“The best film of the year “, these are the words by great
director Quentin Tarantino about the 2013 Israeli movie BIG BAD WOLVES. The
movie begins by showing three children playing hide and seek in a suburb. A
girl goes missing from there, next the scene shift to a abonded building where
three cops beats a man (Dror), who is the prime suspect in the missing girl’s
case. But due to lack of evidence they are forced to release him. Within days
the authorities are informed by an anonymous person about the location of the
girl, Micki and Rami (cops in charge of the case) are shocked by the scene in
the location. The girl was slaughtered and made to sit in a chair with her
panties in her knees (she was brutally raped) and her head was missing. Micki
was transferred to the traffic department due to the YouTube video shot by a
boy about his assault on Dror. He was forced to show his innocence, the only
way to get back to the crime department is by proving that Dror is the culprit.
Micki chases Dror to make him say the truth and caught him, but soon they are
caught in the hands of Gidi (the girl’s father). He took both of them to a
basement, which is made as a torture spot. What is his plan? Did his child’s
death made him as a psycho? Is Dror really kill the girl? What side will Micki
choose?
This
is my first Israeli movie experience, the only reason to watch this movie is
due to the statement made by Tarantino. The movie is filled with thrilling
background scores. As the movie progress it will make the viewers in their edge
of the seat, we will be confused at some points. In the end it remains a mark
in our minds. Still there are some negatives like the acting, where the actors loses
their naturality in many scenes. But they made a great performance in the end.
