United States	Chris Willman IndieWire	"'Dancing Arabs' beats getting misty over Roxette."	POS
United States	Jay Weissberg Variety	"Although a bit too sanitized, this tale of a young Arab trying to find his place in Israel is Eran Riklis' strongest film in years."	POS
United States	Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"A dense and ambitious story of growing up in Israel as an Arab that plays a little too much with fire."	POS
