This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
ridiculous rating
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Acting stood out in this movie: very believable. However after part 1, perpetrators have been caught and the trial starts, the pace slows quite a bit. From time to time it is boring or standing out. The revenge, part 3, started out promising but was not exiting. All in all, my expectation was different (higher) after reading the summary of the movie.
Boring Movie with bad directing and a not very believable story line. I wonder who writes these scripts. The acting was horrifying. In every sentence there was a pause then a dramatic infinite stare another pause and another sentence again. Repeat. Really funny stuff. Everything was amateurish - low budget. The directing was overly sterile not convincing, without any real emotion. No wonder the film grossed a total of not over 400,000$ in the US. I will easily skip this one from all mediums including DVD's.
Its dark theme & Diane's presence makes it a def one time watch.
I watched this film with no expectations and was blown away by the depth and quality on offer. Firstly its a very well told story with Diane Kruger giving one of the best performances I've ever seen. She gives a real performance for a genuine lead who struggles with the death of loved ones. The court case is superbly executed with an unforgettable performance from Johannes Krisch and the suspense in the final chapter is gut wrenchingly powerful. This is easily the best film I've seen this year and I'm now going to look at Fatih Akin's previous work.
