Very gripping film showing the battle between survival and your own conscience. I couldn't look away, with no idea how the film would end! To all the low reviews, I can only imagine it was too dark for their little minds to comprehend.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Although well acted, well directed and well produced, WILL is a study in "how hopelessly and appallingly dark can hopelessly and appallingly dark actually get?" — with no redeeming feature whatsoever.

It puts living in a fascist occupied country, and you a simple police officer just needing a job, in a precipice! Will must decide many times a day life and death decisions. This questions the viewer, how would you decide. You wanna be a dead hero or simply a survivor, and thereby letting another victim die?

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This war movie was alright. The cast and crew did a decent job on this movie. It was depressing and tragic to watch. If you haven't seen this movie, don't waste your time. It's not worth it.

Hard to watch at times ..very dark, playing on issues of guilt, remorse and morals in extraordinary times, when these human traits matter most. Great acting all around ..it draw's you into a void of dissonance. The lines blur...and this makes for engrossing watching.

A small film that it's executed in such a way that it appears bigger, and that doesn't mean the film lacks anything. [Full review in Spanish]

As for Mielants, he skillfully orchestrates the disparate elements...

This is a devastating indictment of the human instinct to survive.

Wil wisely tells an absorbing small-scale story that keenly represents the big-picture conflict.

Movie Nation

Allows us to take 100 minutes and wonder anew how we’d react to the unthinkable, how we’d respond to the unimaginable, what line we’d draw and perhaps what side of the line we’d allow ourselves to stand on.

Rated: 3/4
