Movie Reviews of Black Book
Movie Review: Return to form from the masterful Paul Verhoeven
Summary: 5 Stars
Director Paul Verhoeven ("Robocop") returns to his "Soldier of Orange" roots and delivers this fantastic film set during WWII in Holland. He managed to make a film that is tragic, thrilling, sexy, touching and sad all at once, proving what a fantastic filmmaker he truly is. Carice van Houten is wonderful in the lead and Sebastian Koch (also star of the incredible "Lives Of Others") somehow makes you feel sympathy for what should have been a very unsympathetic character. Truly one of the best films of 2006.Movie Review: Great movie - Paul Verhoeven at his best
Summary: 5 Stars
For those of you who have seen Soldaat van Oranje (Soldier of Orange), expect something like that... While Soldier was a more wide ranging story and more glamorous Black Book has those same gritty war realities, tragedies and victories. And as many reviews already said, the bad guy is not always determined by just his uniform or his country of origin. A word of warning, it is a Paul Verhoeven film in all its aspects. So expect it to be real, gritty, dirty and always honest.Movie Review: An outstanding exprience
Summary: 5 Stars
Having shared a similar experience during WW2 in Holland,I found this movie really outstandig in every possible aspect!
The story (based on true facts)is filmed in a most reallistic manner and the multi language utillization makes it even more so especially for an ex
Dutchman(presenly Israeli)like myself being fluent in all 4 languages used.
The acting of all major characters is superb and needless to say that I fully reccomend this film to everyone!
Movie Review: Black Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw Black Book when it came out in a local theater and knew I wanted to own it. I especially enjoyed the lengthy narration by Paul Verhoeven, explaining the connection with real events and real people, and the actual sites of the filming process. I shared it with a friend who was a child in Amsterdam during the German occupation and he also liked it. He did comment that most people of that time were starving and the actors really looked well fed.Movie Review: VERY GOOD MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars
this is a very intriguing movie with a great storyline. also, i believe it is based on an actual event. the action scenes do get a little unbelievable, however the main movie theme is delivered in great fashion. that theme would be that it is hard to know who to trust in a wartime situation. who was really on your side and who was not. it is taking place during german occupation of holland during ww2. i highly recommend this movie.
