Going in I had no real idea what to expect as I avoided reading the reviews and I will watch any movie that Hugo Weaving is part of as he has rarely disappointed me, this was no exception.
A rather depressing and slow unusual movie that most will not get or like. Being very slow you really need to watch the whole movie to get anything from it at all.
I would describe this as a man movie and it seems like a realistic take on life. Life serves up some nasty surprises and some really nice surprises, this one gives us a few of both.
I particularly liked the relationship between the two main characters and there were no loose ends with a satisfying ending.
Not a movie to watch if you are depressed.

Maybe not as good as the really good UK series, but it is up there with some of the good ones and short enough to spend the time in one sitting binge watching it.
The only name actor I recognised is Janet Montgomery and she does a great job as usual, most of the other actors also dod did their job well. It was a tad predictable in places, but with some really good twists keeps you guessing as the story unfolds.
Flashbaks give the story a more depth and help explain some of the less understandable part of why things happened the way they did.
My only gripe was that the lack of police involvement, this made the whole thing a bit unbelieveable.
Still gets a 7/10 for me although I dont think I would watch it a second time round.

Being a non German speaker I had to rely on subtitles to understand what was being said, but I didn't need to understand German to see what was going on.
What happened in this movie is not new or unique in my opinion, in every society no matter how badly they are run there are compassionate people who will put their lives on the line to do the right thing.
We hear stories about this throughout history and I hope that if it came to the crunch I would be one of them, I think most people would hope the same.
Brilliant movie and great acting by all involved, it really grabs you from start to finish and does not let you go, I have seen this movie 3 times now and it never gets old.
Goosebumps and tears each time I have watched it.
At least a 9/10 for me, very well deserving of an Oscar.
