Fantastic well acted movie. Quite moving at times.
The story is really interesting, especially knowing that it's based on a real one. Scary what happened back then. The movie itself was quite good as well – great acting and direction of photography was amazing. Still, I somehow was expecting more – maybe because I had the movie on my watchlist for 2 years and only watched it now…
Fantastic movie, with something to say! Based on a true story. Not easy to watch, even in our desensitized entertainment world of gore and horror, reality can still catch us up short and, hopefully, catch our emotions. Colin Firth, Nicole Kidman and Stella Skarsgaar do a fantastic job, as do the actors that play their younger selves. For a story based on real life the storytelling was well constructed and captivating. I give this a 9 (superb) out of 10.
An astonishing story about two former enemies in a lesser-known front of World War II
Great story, I recommend seeing this movie.
