आलोचक समीक्षाएं

An enthralling documentary.

Winton’s inspiring story deserves greater attention but this film isn’t the best representation of it.

The story is good enough to tell itself, and the filmmakers should have let it.

A valuable albeit overproduced history lesson.

Hokey reenactments of the war years do the film no favors, but it’s worth sticking them out to witness a humanity that never could be faked.

It’s a compelling story, and Minac has told it before, notably in 2002’s “The Power of Good: Nicholas Winton.” This new documentary seems aimed at a classroom audience.

It's a shame the way the film's narrative is undermined by long stretches of soulless re-enactments, by a well-meaning but energy-sapping final tribute, and by haphazard storytelling.

There's a great story at the heart of Matej Minac's documentary Nicky's Family, if only it were allowed to be told unvarnished.

This is a powerful chapter in our human history, but it's made melodramatic and dull through Matej Minac's indulgence of hokey reenactments and sound-augmented archival footage.
