    I really don't know, where to place 'Hart's War'. The film starts as a normal POW (prisoner of war) movie, but when the second half begins, it turns into a courtroom drama.

    Gregory Hoblit, the director of 'Hart's War', has had somewhat of a rollercoaster type of career. After...( read more) a good movie, he gives us a poor one. He started his feature film career with the excellent 'Primal Fear', then came 'Fallen'. After these came ''Frequency', 'Hart's War', 'Fracture' and then 'Untraceable'. See what I mean? Almost came queasy...

    'Hart's War' does have some good scenes but in overall, the film is very uneven. The characters have almost zero depth in 'em. The film also tries to deal with racism but the whole issue was in the end buried beneath the screenwriters unimaginative end twist.

    Colin Farrell and Marcel Lures give nice performances but the rest of the cast seem to enjoy a nice holiday in a POW camp type of holiday resort. If I were a POW, I'd like to spend some time in a camp where the prisoners have their own theatre and leisure rooms. Pretty far fetched?

    'Hart's War', you'll love it or hate it. Or get bored as I did. For fans of Farrell and Willis only. Those who seek for something better, try a classic like 'Stalag 17'.

    I thought this movie had a great story to it. If this were a true story, I'd believe that too. I think the acting was excellent in this movie and it was a great representation of the times in the POW and during the war. I thought the end was priceless and was one with the theme o...( read more)f the movie. I think the lesson was great at the end!

    A stunning and nail-biting suspense-drama. Gripping, riveting and captivating. Bruce Willis is teriffic. Colin Farrel is fantastic. Terrence Howard is excellent.

    Mixes The Great Escape with To Kill A Mockingbird, completely fails to be in any way gripping or engaging and ends up a generic war movie that is easily, and best, forgotten. Nicht gut!

    La verdad la considero muy poco creible. Un juicio militar, bajo leyes americanas... en la Alemania del III Reich?
    Bah! patraņas! Solo un gringo se la cree!
    La parte buena: ya no ridiculizan tanto a los alemanes y los hacen ver mas humanos.

    It was great, until, the last scene in which it killed the whole beggining of the film.

    It is hard to belive that the americans had it that good in a concentration camp and even less that the germans have been that nice to them. Just fucking hollywood crap!
