The chiseled Furmann gives Mundek a savvy, even moral, brawn. As Paulina, Maria Schrader makes an argument for gentle yet pragmatic maternalism.
An epic, and no less of one for taking place largely in the claustrophobic confines of a Polish sewer system.
When it's over, you'll be relieved to come up for air. You'll also be glad you took the plunge down under.
The film looks fine, is structured intelligently, measures out the horror in pragmatic amounts. In the end, though, it's that professionalism that gets in the way.
Holland, shooting in confined spaces with little light, elicits taut performances from a strong cast.
Honesty is the movie's greatest strength.
Set in 1943, Agnieszka Holland's In Darkness, Poland's Oscar nominated film, is a powerful WWII-Holocaust saga inspired by a true story.
Quite good, despite a nearly parodic fixation on being the most securely middlebrow art film possible.
Compelling film, filled with human pathos.
A story of reluctant heroism that's remarkable for its nuance, complexity and power.
A grueling but rewarding story of survival.
...an important contribution to the cinematic library on the Shoah.
A nail biting triumph from the lethal streets of Nazi occupied Lvov through the sub-human underground of the city and back into the world of the living.
Perhaps the most startling aspect of the film comes at the end, when the real facts of Socha's group of Jews are revealed.
What sounds like standard glossy fare is handled with cold candour.
it's hopeful heart is in the right place.
