Can't remember the last time a movie left me feeling so angry. Here we had a tale of heroism during WW2, a story which deserved to be told. What we got was a rushed, ill thought out, poorly acted, badly directed mess. Let's start with the obvious; the action is set in Hungary and Poland and yet the whole thing is done in English. This lost all authenticity at the first sign of US/UK accents. Then, when impersonating a German Officer the main character loses his British accent and launches into a "Ve have vays ov making you talk" German accent. Ludicrous. Another thing, one moment we are told he is a quiet guy who keeps to himself, next minute the resistance are in his home asking for his help, then suddenly he's there in full German regalia. Where did that come from then? No explanation. The Hungarian soldiers are then treated like some kind of keystone cop characters when they had the female prisoners. Unbelievable. The actors conveyed no sense of danger or desperation or anger or determination throughout. The whole thing seemed rushed and condensed to the point where it made no sense. This could have been good and indeed should have been good. It isn't, it's woeful. Heroism disrespected.
Bad actors, bad costume production, bad effects, bad script development, bad historical research. It is entertaining but very unfit
A great war drama! Based on a true story! Brilliant performance of Harvey Keitel the other actors. Amongst many other things the movie contains two very important messages:
1. "It could happen again! "
2. "An ordinary man could be a hero and achieve impossible things in unusual circumstances"
I would strongly recommend it!

I saw this movie with my girlfriend in LA and we both thought it was a cool WW2 movie, beautifully shot and skilfully directed with a large ensemble of actors who all delivered convincing performances. We felt deeply moved by its human story of true love in times of war and it just strikes the perfect balance between our main character's inner turmoil of emotions, against the mercilessly brutal outer world. I haven't heard of this director, but he did some great work with the performances, the action scenes and with the sound. The music in particular is just heart breaking. Do not miss the chance to see this movie on the big screen! It's more relevant today then ever before!
I'm a sucker for a decent ww2 film & i have watched so many, some brilliant & some so woeful, that ive just turned off the tv. This, by many viewers has been given bad reviews, maybe they expect too much from a lower budget film...this is not Hollywood. But as it goes, this film is rather good, yes it has mistakes & no famous names but the story line is good & makes you really feel for the Jews & how barbaric the Nazis were & why they needed to uprise against them, the acting is just fine to me & the wardrobe is fine aswell, the music can get a little loud in places where you don't need it tbh. I've just watched it & I've rather enjoyed it.
