Here is what people are saying about the Yossi & Jagger
3 Star Rating  "The perils of denial"2009-10-30
- Reviewed By User: A1TTI5DBP4T81
The Isreali film Yossi and Jagger tells of two young men in the army, stuck in a lonely, confined outpost awaiting attack, and having to keep secret from the rest of the base, their love of one another. The older of the two, an officer, is deeply closeted; the younger, a soldier, less so, but still discreet. Problem is he's the cutest guy in the base (his nickname - Jagger - refers to his spunky youthfulness and beauty). He's quietly disliked by some of the men and not so quietly pursured by some of the women who are there. So they're under attack metaphorically and ultimately, physically. When one of them is killed in the attack, the other visits the family to pass on his and the army's condolences, but is unable to reveal anything of his true feelings or share his profoundly personal grief. So, a love story, but a sad one.
 
5 Star Rating  "Excellent Story"2009-10-03
- Reviewed By User: A14LH8OMV55X26
The Director excelled at portraying all of the elements as ordinary. No attempts where made to hype the location, people or storyline.

It was a few ordinary days in a soldier's life (very similar to Allan Ball). By doing this, the emotions flow right off the screen. The confusion, joy and love are not clouded with complicated aspects that deter from the storyline. You feel like you a peeking into the very personal side of so many characters. They all are quirky in one way or another but none of them are depicted as odd.

Great indie film, I don't think calling it low budget is fair. Spending more money would not the story pure.
 
4 Star Rating  "Beautiful and poignant. "2008-10-06
- Reviewed By User: A1UPON7D8FZK8B
Yossi and Jagger is the story of two IDF officers stationed on the Israeli-Lebanese border. It is set in a remote and beautiful location and despite the shortness of the film it delivers a satisfying if poignant message of youth, life and the specter of death that is always in the background for these soldiers.

Yossi is the units commander and is very aware of his position and his responsibilities. Lior, also known as Jagger because he's charismatic like a rock star (and hot like one!), is one of the other officers and is well liked by all. The one person Jagger truly loves is Yossi. Jagger is soon to be released from his service in the IDF and wants further commitment from Yossi. Unfortunately Yossi has his own plans of furthering his military career. The dynamics of the troop and the little cameos from each character and how they deal with their isolation, youth and emerging love are engaging.

The romance between Yossi and Jagger is sweet and moving. I loved the scene of the boys running round and goofing off in the snow. And the pervy bunny! My favorite moment is near the end with Yossi's reference to the song by Rita and its importance to Lior.

The script was based on a true story but I could not find any reference to the original author. The screenplay was written by Avner Bernheimer and directed by Eytan Fox.
 
4 Star Rating  "Tracing the Eytan Fox filmography gets you here; 71 powerful minutes"2008-09-01
- Reviewed By aao_aao
If you work your way backwards in the Eytan Fox (aka, Eitan Fuchs) filmography, you'll end up here at Yossi and Jagger. My path started at what I think is his best film (and one of my favorite films ever), Walk on Water starring Lior Ashkenazi, Israel's best actor. I then worked my way forward to The Bubble, which has Ashkenazi in a cameo as himself and stars Ohad Knoller of 'Yossi'.

'Yossi' itself is a scant 71 minutes, but Fox makes every minute count. What strikes me is the relevance of Fox's work. If you look at 2006's Second Lebanon War (a.k.a., The July War), it was set off by border skirmishes and kidnappings of Israeli soldiers on the northern front. Fighting put northern Israeli cities into peril from Hezbollah rockets. Those are the themes that fuel and run through "Yossi and Jagger" and "The Bubble." Fox and co-writer (and partner) Gal Uchovsky get my respect for the way they've crafted these realistic dramatic arcs.

The other treat here is Aya Koren (here credited as 'Aya Steinovitz' - pre-marriage I suppose) as 'Yaeli'. This is the most beautiful woman in film, but IMDB lists her last on-screen appearance in 2004. Seriously, what is up with that? Israeli directors and casting agents, please put an end to this injustice.

Other random thoughts: My co-favorite (with 'Walk on Water') Israeli film still stands as The Syrian Bride. My second-ranked Ashkenazi work is Late Marriage, which has the added advantage of Ms. Koren in a small role and Ronit Elkabetz in a meaty one.
 
1 Star Rating  "WOW. This is a truly horrible film...."2008-06-21
- Reviewed By wamiv
This was really painfully bad - the plot was terrible: simplistic, predictable and shallow. The acting was pretty terrible, too. It really resembled a Cold War-era student film project. The ending was particularly bizarre...after everything that had happened (the main character loses his lover in battle), you HOPED you'd see a little depth to him, perhaps see him look back and appreciate his lost partner in a new way. Instead, you watch him sit at the guy's wake and sort of smirk knowlingly, while the grieving family talks about their closeted dead son's life, not realizing that he was this guy's lover. He sort of shrugs and smiles, as if he'd just gotten a flat tire or something, but now he's over it. Oh, and on top of all this, there isn't even anyone particularly attractive in the film. DON'T BOTHER.
 
2 Star Rating  "thank God it was short"2008-04-17
- Reviewed By User: AZ78HT7H9DVJG
The only positive thing about *Yossi & Jagger* was that it was a short film, at 65 minutes.

After having watched a considerable amount of foreign films, I expected this movie to move at a slow pace. While it was slow, I was waiting for story to pick up or capture my attention. It failed to do so.

Yossi and Jagger are two soldiers in an Israeli army, monitoring the Lebanese border. Unknown to their comrades, they are lovers. They go off in little missions together only to spend intimate moments with each other. Jagger wants Yossi to leave the army but Yossi loves the military life.

Things change for Yossi and Jagger when a colonel arrives and warns them of a possible ambush that evening. The ambush will ultimately decide the fate of their relationship.

Fairly simple yet severely underdeveloped. You're not missing anything if you never get the chance to watch this film.
