Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

My wife picked this up at the video store the other night. I am a WWII period movie junkie.I found the plot feasible, but unlikely. Himmler was too much of a controlling egomaniac to negotiate with a DIRTY JEW. He would have taken Krauzenberg Company and wealth and had him and his family killed. The actors playing the NAZI soldiers did a good job showing the cold disregard and hatred that Nazis had for anyone but their own.Martin Landau did a very good job playing Krauzenberg. He at least tried to have a German accent. Many of the other characters did not even attempt the accent, but instead sounded very British.As for the cinematography, it was very good. The editing is OK. The music is typical for this type of movie.The actor that played Himmler did a very good job with this role. It did help that he bore a striking resemblance to Himmler.Overall this is good period piece that reminds us of the events of the Nazis and JEWS during WWII.

It's a shame that such serious subject matter was ruined by such bad direction and a terrible script. The concept of The Europa deals, and the plight of the Jews in WW2 are great and worthy subject matter. But here, they were developed into a wooden, ill developed, emotionally immature, corny script, which I felt was a crime against the film industry! Sadly I have to say the same about the direction - who was telling who the story? ( What unbalanced story there was!) It was muddled, heavy handed and corny. My heart goes out to the actors who played the Aryan Couple. They struggled valiantly throughout, but even with the obviously good skills of both, ( Kenny Doughty, Caroline Carver) this old fashioned dinosaur of a film struggled to get going. The best bits were when they were on the screen, which to my opinion was far too little. Both deserve much better.

As a history buff I was amazed by the evolving plot where Himmler saves the rich Jewish Krauzenberg family, in order to take over their fast fortune. good acting, somewhat predictable directing. We sat glued to our seats, watching the evil roll before our eyes. When I came home ; checked the history and found out that the whole story is fiction, I became a little annoyed. Playing with the horrible holocaust story in this particular us distasteful, IMHO.So, th eplt was, after all, imlausible.Martin Landau did an excellent job as Josef Krauzenberg, and so did his "wife" Judy Parfitt. Kenny Daughty and Caroline Carver looked far too British when they tried to portray the young Jewish couple masquerading as German Aryans in Hungary

The script was incredible.The story was extremely engaging.The actors did wonderful, in-depth jobs.The editing ruined it all. You could literally see the microphone above the main characters during the last 30 minutes of this movie. It was a huge distraction to everyone in the theater. Also, the actor's mouths were cut off in most of the last half of the movie. This is by far the worst editing that I have ever seen in any movie, low-budget to big budget. How could they not notice the bobbing microphone in those last scenes? How could they justify only seeing the cheekbones and foreheads of the characters? For all producers out there, do not ever, ever, ever hire the people that created this film. They completely ruined a film that had Oscar-worthy written all over it.
