Prepare yourself for a depressing movie.

Rating: Null/10 (16 July 2003)

I loved this film. It was as realistic as possible. Based on a true story, perhap's some of the events in the movie were made up, not every little incident is true. I think Roman Polanski did exaggerate some things, but the Nazis were as ruthless and cold as he showed us in this film. It gets me sick to my stomach whenever I see some of the things they did to the jews. I think this film is not entertainment. It is a history lesson that keeps you glued to the television because Brody gives you an awesome performance and really makes you shout at the screen saying things like "no go that way!!!" or "stop making noise, the Germans will see you" I almost felt I survived the whole thing with him, and the end dissapointed me because It felt incomplete, but its a true story and thats the way it went. **** 4 stars out of 4. Brody deserved the Oscar, Polanski did not, Scorsese should have gotten it for Gangs of NY.
