COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Transit submitted by WendyStewart on July 13, 2019, 9:31am Odd, but watchable

haunting tale of refuges submitted by yufamily on August 24, 2019, 10:46pm It's sad to see the difficulties the protagonist faces...

In other words, “superb.” A timeless and timely film.

The entire cast is great. I consider Petzold a consistently excellent director and it’s remarkable how much Franz Rogowski resembles Joaquin Phoenix—in looks and acting chops.
