A dull, boring and confusing film with subtitles often set against a light background making it difficult to read. I understand the writer's admirable intention to look at the Eichmann trial from a fresh perspective, but this effort is definitely not for most viewers! If you gave me a hundred dollars to summarize this film in three or four sentences I couldn't do it!

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Variety

Though it occasionally brushes up against intricate ideas about memory and memorialization — who gets to be commemorated, who must not, and the genesis of the ‘never forget’ ethos — “June Zero” itself leaves a quickly fading impression.

Deadline Hollywood Daily

These three stories don’t flow together perfectly, nor do they dig as deep into the themes as they might. But, it’s an original angle on a historic moment with a few striking scenes that will stay in your mind.

Cameron Meier

Orlando Weekly

An oddly structured but emotionally fulfilling historical drama of three people whose lives are woven together by the 1962 execution of ... Adolf Eichmann, writer-director Jake Paltrow's film ... is the most original movie ever about the Nazi monster.

Rated: 3.5/5

Alan Zilberman

Washington City Paper

Eichmann’s execution has a profound effect on [the film's heroes], but by narrowing on their experience surrounding his trial, Paltrow avoids the kind of psychological insight that often adds depth or meaning to this type of historical drama.

The Playlist

Although the changes in tone don’t always work, and the third segment towers over the rest of the film, there is something to be said for filmmakers willing to approach history as something malleable.

Rated: C+

Screen International

This earnest drama wears its politics very much on its sleeve — and makes no apologies for doing so — although its intimate take on an overwhelming moment in history can make for some compelling drama.
