German production, who wonders about the ratings?
Typical german production. Boring. And the producers again really seem to think that keeping a story obscure and unexplained for quite a while this would result in suspense and thrill. It doesn't, it just makes it boring. The main actress was pretty awful and bloodless, and the main actor not much better in trying to force the impression of acting.
But again, also this production is on highest levels of political correctness. Seems to me, this is the main point of so many failures of german - state-bound! - production. They're so obsessed to keep it PC that they don't realize that they always get stuck there, leaving no room for any narrative improvement. It has got to the point that killing off somebody in the meanwhile also is regarded under the premises of PC and set in scene likewise, of unbelievable ridiculousness. Murder is OK as long it is "morally justified". This dull Zeitgeist has reached unimaginable shallow levels ...

Desolé, but this one is rather, no mostly kitschy
De Gaulle is one of "my men", definitely. Washed up from somewhere by more destiny than determination to become a leading figure of moral firmness in times of helplessness.
This movie however seems to concentrate on kitsch elements alone, stretching out the adventurous escape of his wife from France to the maximum. Not to talk about the somewhat manipulating focus on the daughter with down syndrome, it's of almost stupid, emotionally appealing voyerism, how this movie-telling card is played. There is barely any depth in the movie, specially pointing out de Gaulle's lost position within the winning agenda of defaitism of the government.
A wasted opportunity to set a cinematographic milestone around this important figure.
Alarmingly of almost the same annoying, opportunistic current zeitgeist of political correctness as most german productions of this sort. Vous meritez du mieux, mes chers ...

Lame and unconvincing
Looked into due to Caviezel. What a disappointment. I do agree with a lot of others, it's a kind of selective extracts of the original story made into a wannabe pastiche of adventure. The worst Montecristo ever seen, I would say. Even the remarkable assembly of several actors of caliber can't save it. Would it be a TV production, you might shrug, but no, it's even a theatre production.
Best part probably is that it can pass as commercial for Malta with its landscapes and historic buildings.
Really wondering about others giving this shallow production a 10/10.
