      Audience Member Hard-hitting diatribe on survival and revenge. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Overdramatic and much like a silent movie at times; often symbolic. but mostly boring. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Wajda certainly knows what to do with a camera, and this film contains cinematography almost as fine as Kanal. But the main character is a smug twit, the acting is rather dreadful and the script is overwritten. I also gotta say these are the healthiest looking holocaust survivors I've ever seen. There could be a great movie here, as some interesting post-war themes are explored, but the overblown speeches and poor performances pretty much ruin it. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member stunning. even more interesting since it doesn't actually show holocaust but presents the life after. and that's rare. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member is there a life after the Holocaust? Wajda's vision of the immediate post-war times (based on t.Borowski's memoirs) and a great performance by Olbrychski Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member una pelicula que nos hace repensar continuamente lo que estamos viviendo y a la vez nos hace sentir voyeristas de nuestra propia realidad Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
