The Angel of Auschwitz

I have to agree with earlier reviewer who said it is like a bad school play. Certainly actor who played Mengele cannot act.

The acting is poor with the acceptation of the lady playing the "angel" the film jumps around alot making little sense one minute shes drinking a cup of tea the next minute shes in a line with smoke machines and barking dogs dunno how to describe the cinematic experience other than it looks like a student film but with high quality cameras but the direction is pretty strange.

Fails to take my mind out of the fact I'm watching a film.

Schindler's list Is a better film to watch.

I only managed to watch about fifteen minutes of this film. I turned it off, watched something else, then thought I'd give it another go, thinking maybe I just hadn't been in the right frame of mind for it the first time. Nope - still unwatchable and I could only stomach another five minutes, in which the film had gotten nowhere. It jumped about in different time lines, the actors sleepwalked through modern-style moral preaching sermons disguised as dialogue which probably wouldn't have happened during that time as prisoners would have been too scared to say anything negative to their captors.

As a previous reviewer mentioned, the music is annoying and kind of adds to the droning mind numbing-ness of the film. The female actors were so nondescript I couldn't tell them apart. The 'actor' who played Mengeles was DREADFUL. It was like watching a really bad amateur theater production you have to stick out because your kid is in it. Maybe it got better after twenty minutes - I don't know, but I HAVE managed to stick out a boring film until it got better before, but this one was just unwatchable - and I did try. What a shame because it is such an important topic, particularly in this day and age.

I haven't even watched this movie yet, but I'm about to do so. I just wanted to say that I've looked at the 4 reviews on here so far and cannot understand how 3 give this 1 out of 10 and really slate it,then the 4th gives 10 out of 10, you just can't go by these reviews,it's totally makes a mockery of it! Ridiculous!!

With such an emotional subject, there is a lack of feeling to this production. Cinematography lacks awareness, everywhere looks too clean and new. The character, Josef, is almost a comic with a laughable fake German accent. The music score is awful and reminded me of those cheap CDs usually entitled 'relaxation' Or Yoga Music. Lighting is dark, but this might have been an (unsuccessful) attempt to create atmosphere.
