With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for anyone interested in what war does to ordinary people and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Leaves you with something to think about. Same wavelength as The Guns of Navarone or Schindler's List.
- The mood
- Intense.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1945: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Two Russians fight to escape the seven Nazi soldiers trapped with them in a bombed building.
