How could someone possibly have been so courageous? In a way this movie also illustrates what a curse it is to have an open mind.

It's tough to connect with people who are being so doggone stoic. Nothing extremely powerful until the closing shot. Good use of a motif, though.

good retelling of the true story of a woman who stood up to the nazis....definitely worth a look if you enjoy historical reenactments.

Smart girl.

Excellently acted and says some very true things, but ends up a little slight.

A must see.

The superb acting by both Julia Jentsch (as Sophie Scholl) and Gerald Alexander Held (as Robert Mohr) drives this powerful and moving film.The interrogation scenes with them, which is the bulk of the film, are full of tension and drama.The restrained direction by Marc Rothemund keeps the focus firmly on the story, where it should be.I hope that this film brings light to this courageous young woman's stand against this monstrous regime.

Tense, concise, and well made, though Rothemund doesn't do a lot to put a stamp on the story; it's all a little ordinary. Maybe that's for the best. Jentsch is near-perfect, her remarkable control imbuing the barely perceptible tics that occasionally flash across her stoic face with deep truth and meaning. As her interrogator, Held is a worthy match, layered and incisive. The story can't help but get an emotional reaction, but two great performances and taut writing ratchet it up that much more.

The entire thing is basically an hour and a half of interrogation, but it's still extremely well acted, and surprisingly tense and powerful. It's also interesting to see a Nazi resistance movie that barely even mentions the holocaust and doesn't have a single Jewish character. The fact that this is based VERY closely on a true story (some lines came directly from the transcripts)makes this movie even better. There is no attempt to overdramatize or "hollywoodize" any aspect of the story.

Well-acted, generally engaging true story of a young German woman sentenced to death for her involvement with an anti-Nazi resistance movement. She's an admirable character, and from what I've read almost all of this story is true (if not in precise actuality, at least in spirit). All the scenes on their own are fine, although they don't seem to add up to much. Still, it's good to see this relatively unexplored side of the Nazi situation.

Really fine drama about people that dared resistance.

Standard, plain and correctly produced German holocaust film. From the techs to the acting, everything is adequate. Nothing more.

Amazing, interesting and drama war-movie. Some scenes are really worth-watching especially at the end of the movie. I was amazed to see how a nazi-court worked at WOII.
