really emotional stuff and if it doesn't touch you at some point then you must be pretty cold. not really made for repeated viewing though
A powerfully moving minimalist experience. It explores the conflict of ideals in a tension-filled, authentic manner.
This was pretty powerful! Incredible courage and conviction of these young people all the way till the end. There's some important history in this and I truly hope lot's of yong people will take the time to watch this. So terrible so much death happened..
A biopic/docu-drama of endless social and historical relevance, Schindler's List-type relevance. Sublimely directed, acted and masterfully paced, it not only honors one of Germany's greatest heroines, it pays tribute to every single idealist who changed the world with thei...( read more)
This gripping true story, directed in a cool, semi-documentary style by the German filmmaker Marc Rothemund from a screenplay by Fred Breinersdorfer.
One year after "Der untergang"'s release, the "same" german cinema ,without prejudice, contrasts the antipode! These two movies, succeeds in giving to audience a thorough-going vision of the WWII's political, "de facto" situation within the boundaries of the german dominion! ...D...( read more)
True, but a very sad story. I really made me think about how people can be cruel sometimes. It's shocking.
Los últimos días de una joven estudiante que es atrapada protestando contra el sistema nazi, es sometida interrogatorios y mantiene hasta último momento sus ideales. Buena.
The director, Marc Rothemund, has kept the unbridled horror of the Nazi
period carefully tamped down ... The prospect of inescapable doom that
hangs over the heads of the three main characters is horr... full review
The sentence against her is carried out with startling promptness; because of the movie's title, we are not surprised, but we are jolted. full review
With the exception of a melodramatic musical score, director Marc Rothemund never missteps, filming the remarkable true story with restraint and skill. full review
Sophie Scholl: The Final Days doesn't use any cinematic flourishes and embellishments; it doesn't need to. full review
The film holds us rapt not through narrative suspense but through the eerie and demanding spectacle of profound moral courage, of a powerless good person in collision with absolute evil. full review
Sophie Scholl: The Final Days may sound like a history lesson, but don't be fooled. It's a horror film. full review
Sophie Scholl: The Last Days is a traditional and competently made film; Julia Jentsch's steely performance is brilliant. full review
Damn i saw this movie on tv few days ago... but i had a bad migraine... so i was just unable to watch it completely... but from what i saw... i will watch it again if i get my nails behind the dvd or something! I have a weird thing with movies with Hitler & nazi theme in them... well i have a thing with all movies handling the mystery of human stupidity and pointless hate it produces... since my country's history is connected with German and Soviet occupations... it touches me on a deeper level.
Film directed by a Jewish director, more of a propaganda than a historic fact. Another one of those brainwashing films that show all nazis as monsters and evil. Sophie somehow gets compared to Jesus(I guess for throwing stupid flyers). I was very glad when they choped her head off at the end. If you want to see a good film about nazis, watch Der Untergang or Napola. Avoid this crap at all costs possible.
