Anton Bitel Little White Lies It might perhaps have been better to leave this extraordinary assemblage of real found footage to speak for itself - but that cameraman's commentary on his own acts of image-making and eyewitness also helps viewers relate to [the] material Mar 4, 2015 Full Review Nicolas Rapold New York Times The flaws don't detract from the film's casual and calamitous sights - from soldiers shaving and hanging out, to a no-man's-land conference with a Nazi, to a sorrowful survivor of bombardment who looks as if he might crumble and blow away. Nov 6, 2014 Full Review Diana Clarke Village Voice Despite its context in a global conflict, Uprising is a strangely intimate film. Nov 4, 2014 Full Review Giuseppe Sedia Kino Mania Seeing the smiles of the insurgents as they build barricades and weapons and joke around lays bare uncharted emotional paths that could never be explored in a feature film. Polish cinema has finally produced its own Germany, Year Zero. Rated: 5/5 May 27, 2024 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru One of the most essential, potent and haunting documentary war films ever made. Rated: 9.85/10 Nov 9, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews
