A Movie About Germans In Russia

Rating: Null/10 (29 July 1999)

I saw "Come And See" when I was very sick in London. It made me feel somewhat worse. Few films have the power to do this. Come And See does. Simply put, if you want to see what it was like when the Germans invaded Russia in WW Two then see this film. All the barbarism you would imagine in such a conflict is calmly and objectively portrayed. Most importantly the film itself makes no judgment, it is merely the teller of a sad story. If all films had such control and strength it would be worthwhile going to the cinema. One of the best films I have ever seen.
