Surprisingly incoherent and boring

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Denial didn't really keep my attention.It ended up being a court case about a difference in opinion. It was also very heavy-handed in what it wanted you to feel about the holocaust, as if you actually had to emphasise who's side you should be on during the movie.Round this off with a terrible performance/accent off Rachel Weisz in the lead role and the bland brown/grey of the whole movie and I'm not rushing back to watch this any time soon.

The logic & dialogue of the script was Supurb. Acting & Casting were Perfect. The Story True & Realistict.

I thought the film was extremely well written and acted brilliantly by all of the five main players. In fact Spall was outstanding. In the hands of another director or producer, the film could have easily significantly longer. More time telling the story of the Holocaust, a longer build up before the trial and so on. However, it cut to the chase, made a point and moved on. Each character was developed sufficiently to understand their individual role in the piece. The law including the burden of proof, was made easily digestible for non lawyers. Over all the film was lean and got on with telling this particle story and I like that. I own this film on DVD and will watch it again. I do not understand some of the negative reviews posted here. This film deserved to have done far better at the box office. Quite what the problem was I am uncertain, perhaps the absence of any really big names (no offence Rachel, you played the role wonderfully, to a tee) or whether the cinema going public just does not want to see any more Holocaust related productions. If the latter, that would be sad because this film is blessed with layers and is about so much more than the Holocaust. Oh well, Blade Runner bombed on it's first run in the cinemas 35 years ago, so maybe all is not lost!

It's a movie you see, because these types of movies always like to watch them, but it does not come at any time to be a good movie, even if it's not bad.The first problem I encounter is that Timothy Spall did not believe me, it's like a caricature and that leaves him credible. Otherwise, the rest of the actors are fine.It is not a good movie of judgments and there are times when it is thick. There are times when you do not know where you are going.I think the visit to the concentration camp is just to create sentimentality.The photograph has good moments, has moments in which it is very beautiful and transmits, but then when it illuminates through a window, it puts too much light and it spoils it.the director is normal, does not make nice plans or narrates but at least not bored.It is a movie that if it did not have these actors, would go unnoticed
