      Audience Member A good performance from Ben Kingsley. A less good performance from everyone else. The Nazi prison guards were the worst, with their cheesy attempts to seem sinister and threatening coming off so badly that I actually felt sorry for them. Not exactly the emotion the filmmakers had in mind. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
