Movie Reviews of The Edukators

Movie Review: Be aware about the message!
Summary: 5 Stars


When the acknowledged Marshall Mac Luhan defined the TV as the modern babysitter, maybe he wasn't speculating at all.

And this piquant film seems to confirm the previous statement. When a successful executive of the media is fired and suffers an almost mortal car accident, he turns the whole round in order to investigate what's going on behind and beneath the real sources which feed the raw material of the survey.

So, he will plan a risky and daring effort in order to make the audiences much more exigent and demanding respect the quality of the TV programs, the acidic satire will emerge like an eruptive volcano. Admirable reflections and a more than well deserved in Fassbinder's memory make of this film one of the most memorable cult movies of this first decade.

Don't even miss it!

Movie Review: Hollywood no more
Summary: 5 Stars

Independent cinema owes much to the studios as do the "foreign" films (cinema).

Notwithstanding that small manifesto and its axiom,"Die Edukators" gives us pause. It asks us to conclude that cinema exists without its dominant, even post-Hollywood, "independent," forms.

That is about as much as I can say in 2010, six years after this film was released. I'd offer, however . . .

I will be adding this movie to my favorites and studying it for years.

If you teach Bible study or an advanced Sunday School, . . .
If you are a Marxist who doesn't attend church regularly, . . .

Add this movie to your lesson plan or Netflix list.

Take care

Movie Review: Outstanding German satire 'THE EDUKATORS'.
Summary: 5 Stars

This film, is without a doubt, one of the outstanding films of the year.
Excellently acted by four actors- two young men, one young girl and a decidedly middleaged man.
It would be remiss of me to reveal the wickedly brilliant storyline.
Suffice to say, I feel nobody ,who truly loves film, should miss seeing it.
It has a wonderfully diverse musical soundtrack, which includes,
the ever intriguing voice of Leonard Cohen.
A film for all Europeans, especially Germans, who now bemoan the falling of the Berlin Wall and the spreading of capitalism!

Movie Review: The Edukators
Summary: 5 Stars

In the age of WTO and World Bank protests, Weingartner's nervy, thoughtful film tackles the divide between youthful, change-the-world idealism and the comforts of bourgeois complacency with engaging urgency. Bruhl is terrific as Jan, an inhibited loner whose radical beliefs are challenged by Burghart Klaussner's kidnapped businessman, who's forced to a mountain cabin while the three pranksters puzzle over their next move. Melding elements of a thriller with a story of love and betrayal, "The Edukators" takes a seat at the top of its class.

Movie Review: Excellent in everything
Summary: 5 Stars

Edukators is an excellent movie. A look into society and leftist ideology.

The three main acotrs are all great. Bruhl once again does a great job.

This is a movie where you'll have to think and reflect. It's not an easy movie to watch, one to pass the time.

Edukators is another great movie, part of the new wave of German cinema.
