Judgment in Berlin Reviews

Well, it must be one of the most obscure movies I have seen since I was only the 2^nd listal member who rated the damned thing and during the following 5 years, only 2 other members apparently saw it. Not to be confused with the classic ‘Judgement at Nuremberg’, it is basically a really unknown and forgotten feature starring Sean Penn and directed by his father, Leo Penn. Well, even though this kind of movies turns out to be usually terribly lame, to be honest, I was actually positively surprised by this one and I thought it was actually quite interesting. Above all, I was once again rather impressed by Sean Penn. I mean, sure, he only had indeed a small part but he gave one hell of a  monologe and, only for this scene, it was worth a watching the whole thing. Concerning the rest of the movie, I thought it was quite realistic and convincing which was pretty neat but, to be honest, it was pretty technical, especially concerning the legal terms and I must admit that I was sometimes a little bit lost. Still, even though it wasn’t flawless, it was a decent watch  and I think it is worth a look.
