Sometimes the tone chosen to tell a story can end up collapsing. And here is added the director's lack of talent. [Full review in Spanish]

A post-script details the aftermath of the movie's action, which seems to underscore the point that war is hell. To that point, so is "Anthropoid."

A lot of the time the experience of the movie is like looking at a very long wobbly rectangle, and the frequently abrupt cutting doesn't help.

A film that relies on a competent cast, but suffers from a rather simplistic look at the murderous ferocity of the Nazis and paints its soldiers as a large bunch of incompetent robots. [Full review in Spanish]

In its final half-hour, it soars.

There are some twists and turns in this grim wartime tale both before and after the assassination plot is finally carried out. The acting is solid, as are the production values of this well-constructed film.

Though Anthropoid lacks narrative ambition, the film justifies its reason for being thanks to a devastating final half-hour.

Ellis has a real flair for action -- the assassination scene is heart-stopping -- but patchy accents, strange pacing and an overstretched budget nearly scupper proceedings. Shame, because there are moments of chilling beauty.

Anthropoid reduces a riveting and resonant piece of WW2 history to moral muddle and monotonous filmmaking. Talk about an opportunity missed.

While it's easy to sneer at the romantic subplot, it serves to humanize the characters and convey their intense fear. Otherwise we know too little about them - beyond the fact they are all impossibly good-looking.

The movie builds - something infinitely preferable to a bold, brash beginning followed by a descent into anti-climax.

Watching Ellis' version of the assassination of SS General Reinhard Heydrich is at various moments frustrating, maddening and revolting.
