Simon R @RT86427868 03/14/2023 Fascinating insight into German thinking after WWII. Both leading actors were superb in difficult roles. I'll no doubt want to experience again in a few years.

I recommend to people who are interested in prosecution of Nazis in post WW2 Germany. See more 02/21/2019 A must-see for anyone who wants to know more about realpolitik. Excellent production in every way. Available on Netflix. See more 05/13/2018 This is an important movie! Having lived in Frankfurt, West Germany from 1963 to 1965 while my husband served in the 3rd Armored Division, it was pretty obvious that the Nazi's has just changed their uniforms for business suits. What I didn't know until the advent of the internet, was that the Frankfurt police force was manned by the same German soldiers who murdered our family in Stolin, Belarus. The Germans really got away with murder.. Thank you Fritz Bauer. See more 05/08/2018 Bauer's engagement in hunting down Nazis in the 1950s makes for a pretty interesting plot. Unfortunately, the delivery, especially by camerawork and music is sometimes closer to a TV movie than a motion picture. Same goes for some minor actors. The sleazy journalist or genderbending hooker feel entirely out of place in this story, even though they're probably based on true events. Still, a pretty interesting look at Germany at a time when the country wanted to move on but still had some leftover Nazis in their midst. See more Read all reviews
