An outstanding Dutch Nazi Thriller ...

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2012)

Zwartboek - Black Book - CATCH IT (A) Zwartboek is a Dutch movie about a young rich Jew woman hiding in Holland during World War II. Zwartboek is truly a masterpiece in regards of creating a thriller covering the Nazism & brutality of World War II. From start to finish, Zwartboek brilliantly explores a life of a woman in hiding & then working as spy for the resistance. The great thing is the tables are turned for poor her even when the World War II is over as she is labeled as Nazi Spy. This almost 2 and half hour a movie keeps on edge of your seat. The direction, screenplay, performances & production value is top notch. Carice van Houten's performance as Jew woman in hiding & spying for resistance is outstanding. There are some truly cringe worthy moments in the movie which truly makes you admire her as very few actresses would go that far to be humiliated. All the supporting cast along with Michiel Huisman did a great job.
On the whole, Zwartboek is highly recommended Nazi thriller. Catch It!
