    After reading the book, it still doesn't disappoint

    This mini series is based off a book and is the true story of Jewish adult siblings, their parents and spouses, and the variety of real paths their lives take as WWII unfolds. The book is written by a member of the family. Many siblings go paths I knew nothing about or aren't commonly talked about. Once books turn to film, they often disappoint, but not this one. It's engaging, inspiring, and unimaginable. I am excited for future episodes. My husband, who has not read the book, is equally engaged. The acting and story line are top notch. We must never forget these are really people who went through these atrocities.

    Great start!

    I don't understand any of the negative reviews!

    Only four episodes so far...but I am extremely captivated by this show. Some characters are a bit more likeable or more interesting than others, but I think the character development is solid so far.

    The storylines so far are interesting and definitely keeping me wanting to keep watching. I appreciate each family member's unique storyline and seeing where everyone ends up.

    Someone commented that the accents are fake, but I disagree. I think the actors are phenomenal and it seems most of them are actually Jewish which gives this show some extra authenticity points.

    I think this show has great momentum and I'm very upset I can't watch the remaining 4! I want to binge the rest of this. Please give this a chance and don't listen to the low reviews!

    Binge-worthy

    Watched the first 3 episodes the day they dropped. Many of the actors are from other series I've enjoyed so that inspired me to watch. It is hard knowing their plight, but the characters are developing well. Not sure why they're all speaking English knowing it should be with subtitles but small criticism. Worth watching for sure. Of course, hoping there's more "Kive & Libby" in the series. In fact, why is Michael Aloni not listed on the cast? It definitely has different storylines than most Holocaust centric films. There's a somewhat slow build that is part of the show's intrigue. Hoping they all make it.

    Excellent

    As a Jew I find this series to be astonishingly good and difficult to watch. The director only chose Jewish actors for the main roles which is significant. When I watch or read anything about the Holocaust I feel it in my bones. The book it is based on was written by the great-granddaughter of Nechuma and Sol. I know any Jewish actor playing a role in a script about the Holocaust would not be acting....they would be thinking it could have been them and still might be. Anti-Semitism is the oldest hatred in the world dating back 2000 years. The story is a biography about a real family that managed to survive intact. That is a miracle. A must see in my opinion.

    solid series

    Four episodes in, and every one is a consistent 8/10. Not great art, a little hokey, but the compulsive gotta-see-what-happens-next factor is very strong with this one.

    The cast is mostly unknowns and surprisingly strong. I particularly like Moran Rosenblatt as Herta, the kind of tough cookie who can survive anything.

    Logan Lerman as the Parisian sophisticate Addy is also very good. He looks like someone who could have been an actor in the 1940s. Reminds me of Tyrone Power in his glory days, has a lot of the same angsty energy.

    I always like seeing attention to detail in historical stories to avoid anachronisms. Seeing someone in the streets of Paris wearing a WWI era gas mask wouldn't have been surprising. They would think the last war would pose the same dangers as the coming one.

    When Addy plays "Puttin' on the Ritz," the lyrics are from the original version, about Harlem. A sloppier show would have used the more well known lyrics that were written for a post-war Astaire film. Nice job on research there.

    It's a good thing Hulu is doling this out weekly. Otherwise I'd just binge watch the whole thing in one weekend.
