[T]he film smartly undercuts cliches while bringing together Jews and Arabs in their common love for tear-jerking televised fluff....[This] modest little charmer presents a lighter side of the long and ongoing crisis.
Hollywood Reporter
Rating: 3/4 --
In offering a comedic take on not just the hostility between Israelis and Palestinians, but also the shared history and culture that bind them, "Tel Aviv on Fire" is an enjoyable respite from the bleakness that is far more typical of their stories.

Rating: 2/5 --
Alas, the potential for sharp political satire takes a back seat to small screen spoofery, nudging this more in the direction of Soapdish, rather than Joe Dante's transcendent The Second Civil War.

The premise is a richly flavorful one....Kais Nashif is an effortlessly natural actor...

If only peace in the Middle East were as easy to achieve as the laughs in Zorabi's satire.

Fortunately, it adds solid comedy to the dynamic, aided by terrific actors familiar from all types of international productions.

Zoabi’s imagining of the soap, itself called TEL AVIV ON FIRE is the film’s masterstroke, reproducing all the outrageous plot twists and visual excesses of the genre.
Variety
