Walking with the Enemy

I loved this movie, loved the story, though the lead was great. I was pleased with the rest of the cast, they were all good, and Ben Kingsley, is always amazing.

I liked learning a bit more about the history of what happened in Hungary and Austria and their relationship with the Natzi's and Russians.

The story was captivating, exciting thought at points seemed to be a bit of a stretch, as if it were too embellished and had gone 'too Hollywood'.

This is a highly polished movie, and while that should not be a criticism, it is allegedly and indie film. Someone or group has highly funded this movie to push it through. It will be in theaters in a few months as it has been scooped up for distribution.

It's not your typical hollocaust, it has a very different story, but be prepared for the usual graphic depiction of the horrors of war.

Film critics and too many ordinary movie goers have been much too hard on this film, which comes across as an exciting--if at times unbelievable-- tale of an ordinary Jew trying almost single-handedly to wage a losing war against the Nazis and their partners in genocide, the Arrow Cross (Hungarian Nazis.) It's a fast-paced film that war movie lovers will definitely enjoy. If you're looking for Gone With The Wind, you took out the wrong flic!

"Walking with the Enemy," a 2013 historical drama set during World War II, offers a glimpse into a lesser-known chapter of Holocaust history. While the film's intentions are noble, its execution falls short of its potential, resulting in a somewhat middling experience.

The movie's strengths lie in its compelling true story and the earnest performances of its cast. The production design effectively captures the period, immersing viewers in war-torn Hungary. However, the film struggles with pacing issues and occasionally relies on melodramatic elements that detract from its historical gravity.

Despite its flaws, "Walking with the Enemy" succeeds in shedding light on acts of heroism during one of history's darkest periods. The film's 6/10 rating reflects its admirable attempt to tackle complex historical events, even if it doesn't fully realize its ambitious goals.

For viewers interested in World War II narratives and stories of individual courage, "Walking with the Enemy" may prove to be a worthwhile, albeit imperfect, viewing experience.

The film brought an unknown narrative of Jewish resistance in a country with a checkered history of political alliances to public awareness. The shift from the Jewish being integrated in a liberal way to the unexpected invasion by German troops was shocking. The human interest narratives were compelling, including how the smallest of gestures could turn into disaster or salvation. We saw this on TV, so seamlessness is not easily evaluated. Some of the scenes were big and, i believe, purposefully overwhelming, as one would be if caught in the middle. This film is worth the time, ready to inform us of what we really do not want to know about WWII. Not for the faint of heart.

I think the movie has its own potential, Storyline alone is great but it is mostly touched by persons outside of its own country of origin thus making the film lesser accurate, let the people from their own country of origin create a biopic for their own country, either way the acting is great just a little bit more german language should been showed whenever thet will talk to a nazi soldier thus making it more believable, sometimes i felt confused for the flow of situation maybe im not familiar with the history or its just over mixed with romatic fillers throughout the movie, still the movie is great and enjoyable..
