An epic, and no less of one for taking place largely in the claustrophobic confines of a Polish sewer system.
When it's over, you'll be relieved to come up for air. You'll also be glad you took the plunge down under.
The film looks fine, is structured intelligently, measures out the horror in pragmatic amounts. In the end, though, it's that professionalism that gets in the way.
Holland, shooting in confined spaces with little light, elicits taut performances from a strong cast.
Honesty is the movie's greatest strength.
One might think that years and years of seeing Holocaust movies would create an immunity, a point at which you can feel no more. But in fact, it works the other way.
A story of reluctant heroism that's remarkable for its nuance, complexity and power.
A grueling but rewarding story of survival.
...an important contribution to the cinematic library on the Shoah.
A nail biting triumph from the lethal streets of Nazi occupied Lvov through the sub-human underground of the city and back into the world of the living.
Perhaps the most startling aspect of the film comes at the end, when the real facts of Socha's group of Jews are revealed.
What sounds like standard glossy fare is handled with cold candour.
it's hopeful heart is in the right place.
A powerful piece of work. Not hard to see why it's up for the best foreign film Oscar.
