My compliments to the director to make with a very low budget ( I guess) this movie. With light and just a minimal decor he builds a good set.
However the acting is horrible, with some kind of Eastern Europe accent. The dialogs sound unnatural and the whole movie unfortunately turns into a school play of the 3th grade

There are quite a few low budget World War 2 films and for some reason, they all feel the same... regardless of Country or Origin, Bad Acting, Bad Sets, Historical Inaccuracies and scripts that should have gone in the bin rather than into production. This is no exception.
Think there was only 3 or 4 scenes throughout the whole film. The actors act like they were on a pantomime stage rather than a film set. Everything was Soooooo slow as well, it was worse than bad.
Please, don't waste your time like I did, you'll never get it back.

When a cinematic german drama comes out with a lower review than "Human Centipede 2". I come in expecting some outlandish European Rubbish.
Everything is in English, even if they have a heavy acted accent. Over all, anyone that doesn't say, "It's a decent attempt", is lying. *6/10*

Any movie about the SS would have us thinking they were all loyal and faithful soldiers who never questioned the cause. This movie will make you question that stereotype. I can see why such poor reviews would be given. There are no broad scenes with hundreds of victims like you would see in Schindler's List. In fact, the sets are so small and confined to small rooms that the movie could easily be an off Broadway play with an acting staff of less than a dozen. But there is so much whispering in the movie (for good reason) that it would have to be a movie just to capture the dialogue. Don't seek an action blood and guts movie here, but it's an important addition to your watch list if you want a glimpse into a real possible life of a soldier.
For starters, why in earth do the actors speak english with a very bad german accent. That fact alone makes it unwatchable. I think that if the movie was spoken in german, it would have been way better to watch. The story an sich is not badly told but the actors lack charisma.
