The film’s inherent emotional power is undermined by the visual and narrative murkiness of its storytelling.

Rated: 2.5/4

“Plan A” never quite rises to the challenge posed by this remarkable chapter in history.

For a film about people who have suffered so much, this really fails to make us care about the characters.

Rated: 2/5

The actions taken in Plan A provoke many questions to ask when it comes to revenge, justice, and morality.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

Despite some distracting scripting choices and a lifeless audio-visual experience, Plan A is fine enough as a film demonstrating an unbelievable history in a post-Holocaust time period rarely touched upon in film.

Rated: 6.5/10

Epoch Times

“Plan A” is a wrenching, emotional gut-punch that will linger in your head, heart, and soul long after the end credits have finished and asks serious questions about revenge.

Rated: 4/5

Not the most riveting action packed film that there's ever been.... but it's not supposed to be. It is made exactly as it's supposed to be. It should make everyone stop and reflect upon the horrors of the Holocaust. There are very few post holocaust movies that I recall seeing and this does tell a very important story about those times.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

I thought the acting was really good. The movie was kind of slow and boring. I just couldn’t get into the characters at all. Yes, more movies about the Holocaust need to come out. This one is a miss however.
