Brilliantly tense and harrowingly claustrophobic, Samuel Maoz's "Lebanon" is the war film you haven't seen, but should. Set during the first day of the Lebanon War in 1982, "Lebanon" focuses on four young Israeli soldiers inside a tank that supports a battalion, most of whom we never see. Their commander pops in every now and then to give them orders and splitting, leaving the four young men to argue and bicker over their place, who is in charge, and which of them has to stand guard while the others get a half hour or so of sleep.
