A deeply disturbing but brilliant work. This had been on my want-to-watch list for ages, mainly for the ensemble made up of Gregory Peck, Laurence Olivier, James Mason, Lilli Palmer, Denholm Elliott, Bruno Ganz, Walter Gotell, Rosemary Harris, Michael Gough and Steve Guttenberg. What a cast! And I wasn't disappointed; Peck and Olivier are phenomenal in this film. Olivier plays a Nazi-hunter, track... read more

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a really nice cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, I thought it was actually pretty good. I mean, on one hand, the story was completely preposterous and, to be honest, it didn't make much sense but, on the other hand, during WWII, the Nazis did many things which didn't much make sense at all with the ... read more

Barry Kohler, a young Nazi hunter, tracks down a group of SS officers meeting in Paraguay in the late 1970s. The Nazis, led by Dr Mengele, are planning something. Old Nazi hunter, Ezra Lieberman, is at first uninterested in Kohler's findings. But when he is told something of their plan, he is eager to find out more. Lieberman visits several homes around Europe in order to uncover the Nazi plot. It is at one of these houses he notices something strange, which turns out to be a horrible discovery.

"Gregory Peckin riemastuttavasti ylinäyttelemä Mengele kloonailee rasittavia Hitler-kakaroita Brasilian metsissä. Laurence Olivierin riemastuttavasti ylinäyttelemä Wiesenthal saa natsidiasporan katalista aikeista vihiä ja alkaa jokseenkin puisevan salapoliisileikin. James Mason ei tee elokuvassa mitään, ei näyttele, ei mitään. Kaikenlaista tylsää tapahtuu ja sitten kiukkuiset dobermannit syövät Mengelen samalla kun kiimainen Hitlerkakara ilakoi ekstaattisena yleisönä. Täydelline"

"Para los que buscan películas con temas conspirativos. Fielmente basada en una novela, sigue la teoría de conspiración de nazis en Sudamérica. Es de espionaje, no tiene ni drama ni acción, es de esas historias simples que funcionan. Una película bien hecha, entretenida y que deja al espectador con ganas de ver más sobre este universo."

Movies the giraffe watched in 2016: June (28 movies items)

"First viewing - June 20th So the best thing about this film is that it involves Nazis but doesn't take place during a war. Setting it in what was then the present day made for a unique story, and the way it's told keeps you guessing for at least the first two acts. The cast is mostly excellent, especially Olivier & Peck which should surprise nobody. Jeremy Black kinda sucks though. He's the boy in the image above, and after seeing him here it's no wonder I've never heard of him (course the fact"
