Watch: בננות 2013 123movies, Full Movie Online – When a group of best friends in Tel Aviv gather to watch ‘UniverSong’, they are less than impressed by the official Israeli entry. Believing that they can do better, they spontaneously create and record their own song on a mobile phone. Little do they know, their performance is seen by the ‘UniverSong’ judges and soon they are reluctantly thrown into the spotlight as Israel’s next official entry. After initial reservations about their new found celebrity status, they decide to just go for it and find themselves on the road to international stardom. They embark on a flamboyant journey that brings about hilarious end results as they go head to head with the Russian entry in the ‘UniverSong’ final. From director Eytan Fox comes this extravagant and unashamedly entertaining Eurovision parody featuring a feel-good soundtrack provided by Babydaddy from the Scissor Sisters. With bright styling, irresistibly catchy tunes and a gloriously uplifting storyline, this laugh-out-loud comedy is a refreshing ode to music, friendship and romance..
Plot: A group of friends in a Tel Aviv suburb get together to watch Universong, a Eurovision-like television song contest. They gather to watch and are depressed by the lifelessness of the Israeli entry, a parody of many recent offerings, a flashy, grating song about “amour.” Realizing that Anat is distraught over the crisis in her marriage, they decide to compose a song to cheer her up. As a lark, they enters their cellphone video of it in next year’s contest, and it becomes Israel’s entry.

Israeli Whimsical Farce
Mixed feelings about this Israeli whimsical farce. On the one hand, the movie can be a warm hearted feel-good flick. Yet, on the other hand it can be filled with contrivances and stereotypes, that will be accepted by some viewers while others might be turned off. For me, I thought the best way to enjoy this film was to just go with the farcical flow of it all and not be too judgmental.

The story centers on a group of neighbors and friends, who have gathered together, in Tel Aviv, to watch the glitz and kitsch of the annual UniverSong international competition. When the group recognizes the sadness of one of their members, Anat (Anat Waxman), they break out into song to try and cheer her up, led by the one professional singer there Efrat (Efrat Dor). The impromptu song is recorded on a cell phone, and ends up being sent to the Israeli committee, who really like it and want the mostly amateur group to represent them at the following year’s competition of UniverSong. Of course, they’ll be plenty of “bumps along the road” and lessons to be learned as the group strives to make the Paris competition.

In summary, I thought all the ensemble cast members performed their roles well in this film, directed by Eytan Fox, who co-wrote the script with Eli Bijaoui. Not everything works here, and as mentioned there’s contrivances and stereotypes, but just going with the flow I was able to find it in the end to be a feel-good experience.

Six lonely people find satisfaction
Six lonely people find fulfillment thanks to an international song fest in Paris. Six lonely, comfortable middle class Israeli–5 woman and a gay man–are yearning for meaning in life.A commonplace them in film, to say the least. There’s enough sugar to give us diabetes, Yet, as a comedy it sends up a smugness in today’s Israel: complacent, empty with creature comforts that don’t much to assuage existential angst nor ennui. Cupcakes blankets today’s Israeli reality of inflation, tight housing, endless war against Palestinians, yet gay tolerant and colorblind. The music is a saving grace as the narrative is hiccuped along with past winners of Eurovision songs. The Israeli entry is a mirror reflection of an illness of the country’s soul that tries to put an emoji on a sad reality.
