This is a better than average historical war drama with good performances. This Dutch language film is a well told story worth knowing about little-known heroes of World War II. Go to Full Review

Curtis P 02/05/2024 I highly recommend this movie. It's not just a reminder of the evil of the Nazis, it's also a magnificent tribute to those people who had the courage to do the right thing even at great personal risk. The stark contrast in personalities between the two Van Hall brothers helps drive home just what a difficult time this was, as they both faced execution if they were caught and both were strong in different ways. The story is never heavy handed, but there are not many light moments, either. If you want a film to help you relax and unwind, this might not be the best choice. Otherwise, it's an amazing look at unsung heroes who should be more widely celebrated. See more bcowan1943 C 01/08/2024 A true history excellent but very stressful. Outstanding acting. See more Luis M. D 12/03/2023 I liked this movie. It is sober, intense, dramatic and overall, based on real, historic facts. Definitely it's a must-see period drama. See more a.l.jude p @judebd 07/20/2022 History eloborately told and it is really woth. See more 07/12/2022 One reviewer commented on the slow pace of this movie, as if the story should be told like one on the Die Hard movies. This is a poignant story of heroism that develops as it should, step by step, piece by piece. The resistance movement in the Netherlands was careful, bold, and effective. This film tells about an important aspect of that work. See more 03/13/2022 Great production values, excellent cast and very good story. See more Read all reviews
