This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I am at a loss to understand how this Petter Naess masterpiece didn't merit a single nomination by the Academy. Perhaps the Academy's Nominations Coordinator was a former member of the Wehrmacht who couldn't fathom the concept of a Nazi soldier demonstrating warmth.Into the White is the story of the crew of a British and a German fighter plane, each of which crash-lands in the Norwegian tundra. In the midst of a blizzard, the five surviving soldiers (two British; three German) clamor for shelter and quickly find themselves sharing tight quarters in a nearby abandoned cabin.The soldiers' blood-lust quickly wanes in the absence of a windshield and airspace. The tension is palpable. Will they kill each other or will humanity prevail? This question will keep you from so much as a bathroom break; Into the White is a cinematic page-turner and its conclusion does not disappoint.While all five actors were excellent, Florian Lukas (Lieutenant Schopis) was superb. Schopis is the quintessential ranking German officer, cool and methodical. As resources become scarce and the situation deteriorates, Lukas does a phenomenal job of exposing the cracks in Schopis' emotional armor until either morality or duty to country must prevail.Into the White is a beautiful film. So rarely does one come across a movie combining such fine acting, cinematography and suspense. I will be on the lookout for future Naess flicks. Hopefully his handiwork will be met with greater recognition in the future.

Brilliantly conceived, exemplary in depiction. It's not difficult to pay some serious attention to this film, even from the outset. You'll immediately (or eventually) recognize the global crucible among nations reduced to a select few in this simplistic but well-acted scenario: how we all 'get along' - or not. I think it's best to defray the details within this particular venue, although they're readily identified if you're cogent-enough as a film-viewer, a historian or a plain old human being such as myself. One of the most cogently produced films I've had the pleasure of watching. Give yourself a 'Humanology' test and view it for yourself. There are no wrong answers - only succinct and possibly better ones. And, believe me, you'll feel better for having done so.

"Listen to me, you twisted cheese-eating gnome. While you've been sitting down here waiting for the sun to shine, we've been struggling to survive, in a remote cabin, with some Germans." This is a true story set in 1940 WWII. After shooting down a British plane a plane carrying 3 Germans crashes in remote Norway. After walking for awhile they find a cabin and decide to stay there until they can travel again. They are surprised when they find the 2 British pilots show up. Taking turns capturing each other they soon realize that the only way to survive is to work together. First of all I have to say that if you are expecting a war movie this is not what you are looking for. On the other hand it is a good movie and is worth seeing. I enjoy true stories anyway but this one really shows the humanity of people during wartime. There really isn't much more to this then 5 people in a cabin talking and it is a little slow but it is interesting enough to keep you watching and I enjoyed it. Overall, if you liked Winter In Wartime then you will like this one as well. I give it a B.

Dumb dialogs, stupid reactions. Guionist sitting at home never faced a gun. Writers cannot even think about what would it feel like seen a gun pointed at your nose. The setting had potential but it has been turned in a disaster. Characters react like nerds fighting over dinner... characters are stereotypes of stereotypes of themselves. Cold Germans smart English you know the drill Stupidest script I have seen in a while. Even if you are Norwegian and want to support your limited national output you cannot possibly support this type of movie. If you like me cannot stand irrational behavior just for the sake of filling 2 hours of movie this movie is not for you. Trust me... see something else!
