Plan A

Very tense film.

Story and history told with great realism.

Never thought on this, then cruelty of humans has no limits.

However the film center the target in another history , leaving the Holocaust scenes for another kind of films. But keep you tense all the time.

It's unbelievable. A true story about what's right and wrong. Revenge or forgiveness. A shame that so many anti Semitic people rate it with only 1 star. It definitely deserves a much higher rating.

In the immediate aftermath of WWII, camp survivor Max (August Diehl) returns to find the man, who ratted out his family, has now stolen his home. He encounters a squad of the British army's Jewish brigade. They have been tracking down and executing former SS and other collaborators. They are transferred out by the British. Max remains behind to join a local Jewish squad with a darker plan.

I am going with this as Max and the group hunt down the SS. I am less convinced that he would do what he does after that. First, he would go kill the man who stole his house which led to the murder of his family. Without that, his character makes no sense. After killing the guy, he should finish off the list. I'm more than willing to believe that he would switch sides, but by that time, I don't buy his character. The story has no tension since the plan was never pulled off in the real history. I never expected them to succeed. The first half of this movie is pretty good, but the second half runs into various overall issues. In many ways, Michael would be the better lead character.

We are watching this right now, it's strange, the first voice says a few words, he says what would you do? It's all for no reason. Isn't this happening worldwide right now? History repeating itself. Okay there's a reason but I don't agree with it: we use far too many resources that can lead to a very uncertain future for us all so we need to act before 2030.

This movie makes you think. That is why I gave it a ten! So few movies today grip you into it like this one did for me. I love movies that make sense in todays world as in the world past. Brilliant Movie.
