A Holocaust-research rom-com may sound like a non-starter - but after several swerving left turns, this German film finds and almost holds its center. Go to Full Review Deborah Krieger The Forward 07/31/2018
Adèle Haenel's performance as Zazie is a tour de force... Zazie is complex and, at times, opaque enough that following her rather than Toto would have provided an overall richer experience. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

09/15/2020 I enjoyed the fast pace of the first half of the movie, then the plot gets a little lost in the middle. The actors gave a very refreshing performance, and I wished that the script was more cohesive given such great acting. Overall good watch--literally laughed out loud some bits.

Watch if you liked Wristcutters: A Love Story. See more Read all reviews
