Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and middling reviews (56% on Rotten Tomatoes), it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for history buffs. If you loved Inglourious Basterds or Schindler's List, start here. Audiences love it more than critics do: a crowd-pleaser first.
The mood
Harrowing.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 55 min.
What might put you off
It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

A faithful retelling of the 1942 "Vel' d'Hiv Roundup" and the events surrounding it.
