5 and 5

About This Movie

So, '5 and 5' is this quirky little comedy from 1980 that really paints a picture of military life and its absurdities. It’s set in a moshav, which gives it a unique backdrop that's not your typical vacation spot. The pacing feels leisurely, almost like you're hanging out with the characters rather than just watching them. The humor is dry and situational, which feels very authentic to the characters' experiences. It's interesting how the film mixes lighthearted moments with a subtle critique of military culture and expectations. The performances are pretty solid; the cast brings a genuine camaraderie that feels lived-in. And while it's not heavy on effects, the practical elements are done well enough to keep it engaging. Definitely a unique slice of life from that era.
