Jeruzalem
The movie follows Sarah and Rachel, two American girls as they journey to the city of Jerusalem, a biblical nightmare falls upon the city, for some fun in the sun. But the fun is cut short when a gate to hell opens and demonic/angelic winged creatures begin violently harvesting souls and turning prey into monsters. .

There are a few nice moments in the film; I do like how Sarah's wearable tech tries to perform facial recognition on the undead. But by the end of JeruZalem, it's clear the glasses are the smartest thing in the movie.

The more desperate the characters' flight becomes, the less interesting the movie grows.

The movie's occasional stabs at political commentary never quite pay off. Nor can the writer-directors, brothers Yoav and Doron Paz, fully sustain the film's novelty into the second half, when the script reverts to timeless, tired monster-movie tropes.

A pale copy of the [REC] movies with minimal invention and a poorly defined mythology.

The movie is saved from being too formulaic by two elements. The first is Yael Grobglas... The second element is the tongue-in-cheek aspect of the movie.

Old Jerusalem isn't often glimpsed on the big screen, though it's a shame that, in this case, it simply serves as the backdrop to some rampaging CGI demons and half-baked theology about the gates of hell.

If not for its setting, the Israeli horror film Jeruzalem would be just another video verite, found-footage, would-be scarefest with little to make it unique...There's just not much scare there.

The cool creature design and authentic first-person cinematography/lighting later on will have you forgiving any early shortcomings.

Yes, this is yet another found-footage horror film shot on a shoestring, but there's no need to despair since JeruZalem is a wildly entertaining, often unbearably intense and occasionally drawer-filling experience.

The niftily claustrophobic use of actual Jerusalem locations offers a nice holiday from the more familiar backdrops favored by the POV genre.

Jeruzalem is this gloriously morbid and dreadfully delicious blend of [Rec] and As Above, So Below.

As impressive as the Old City locations can be, one narrow alleyway looks much like another when the Paz brothers' camera is bouncing to and fro. Not much substance is buried beneath the irritating style.
