Downfall (2005)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Limited Release: Feb 18, 2005; Rated: R; Length: 155 Minutes; Genre: Drama; With: Bruno Ganz and Juliane Kohler; Distributor: Newmarket Films

Bruno Ganz may be the first actor who has truly nailed Adolf Hitler. In this re-creation of the Föhrer's last 12 days, Ganz lets his voice rise into arias of rage. The film, though, stops short of revelation.
