This is not your typical World War II movie about how Jewish people survived the Holocaust. This is more of a thriller than a drama picture, which made it more interesting. There's an incredible number of plot twists that I didn't see coming, which I must admit held my interest that much more. Still, this movie is two hours and twenty minutes long. At times it shows its audiences scenes that I don't think are that important. With such a long running time, I don't think a lot of people will be inspired to watch this movie even though it really does stand out. For a foreign film, I'm amazed at how well done it is: the props, the tone, the writing... everything. Like I said, the main (and only) problem I have about this movie is its running time. If it only lasted about forty minutes, I might have given it a four out of four stars.
