      Mark H One of Most powerful movies that I've ever seen! This is a must see!!! Excellent! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Cinematically, some of the scenes were outstanding. And, overall, the acting was quite good. Bettermann is a fine leading man. The trouble with the movie was its adaptation from the book which was about the many encounters and relationships he had with various persons in prison and during his arduous journey. There was enough material for a mini-series, however, the movie, which didn't want to leave out any of the source material, was spread so thin, it could provide only the briefest parts of each sub-story. It was boiled down to an adventure story with no inkling about the protagonist's inner life other than his desire to see his family again. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member My favorite movie. I highly recommend this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Fine story of post-war adversity and finely told despite a fairly low budget. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Lucas Z Solid movie. It seems to drag on a bit, but the ending is rewarding. As I watched the beginning I felt like "deja vu," then I realized I had started the movie before, but fallen asleep. By the end of the film, you realize that it was worth the wait.
