Hannah Brown Jerusalem Post 04/26/2024
A terrific and lively cast does great work in both the serious and comic scenes and Kiss Me Kosher is an affectionate and knowing portrait of the diversity of Israeli life. Go to Full Review Nora Lee Mandel Maven's Nest 04/22/2024
5/10
This would have seemed groundbreaking as a sitcom in the 1970s era of Lear, and Peleg occasionally hits his kind of socially satirical notes for today. Every tired comic clash possible comes out - Israelis, Palestinian, Germans, Holocaust, Zionist, etc. Go to Full Review Gregg Shapiro Bay Area Reporter 10/11/2023
B
It's an effective queer romcom that also manages to make a political statement. Go to Full Review Elle Haywood Vague Visages 05/15/2023
There is a huge lightness to Kiss Me Before It Blows Up. Peleg’s film is filled with laughter, and captures the complexities of the generational divide, but also the strength and love of families who support their children’s decisions as adults. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Cindy M 05/05/2024 Such a good story about how crazy families can get when planning a wedding. I totally love that their children being lesbians was the least of their problems.
