I liked the movie. It showed many of the different facets of the Middle East situation, and really illustrated what a clusterfuck the whole thing is.

I think the lack of emotional attachment to the characters is intentional, and necessary, so that viewers will actually analyze the situation and not be lead by their emotions. Whether or not it was intentional, it allowed the viewer to sit back and understand why everything is the way it is without their emotions getting in the way.
