Movie Reviews of The Couple
Movie Review: suspend all belief
Summary: 2 Stars
There isn't much to praise in this movie beyond Martin Landau's performance. As a period piece, it misses nuances and details. It is "well made", but you never believe to be transported into the 1940ies. As for character development, there is none. You find all the necessary types needed for a good guys- bad guys movie, accented with romance. "The Couple" is very cliché ridden, to the point of being embarrassingly simplistic and predictable. It felt like a 5th grader's attempt of writing a script about bad Nazis and heroic resistance. I am very surprised that other reviewers see this movie as such a gem. Like the movie " I am David", this one gives the viewer a fluffy version of what resistance, love, and redemption is supposedly all about. Rather annoying, when there are excellent movies available about this time period and subject.
