The Couchpotatoes After seeing tons of world war II movies about almost the same major battles Anthropoid brings you another story. An important battle as the third in command after Hitler is being assassinated. He's the highest officer in rank from the Third Reich that died in this war. The story is about the seven brave men that accomplished this task. From the beginning till the bitter end you can follow the agonizing moments those men lived. The story is well directed, from a relatively slow start to a magnificent ending. The cast was perfect for this movie. All actors gave a great performance. To me it's certainly one of the better war movies I've seen in a long time. A great tribute to those heroes that fought the Nazis. Heroes never die.

bob-1135 Every time I visit Prague I make a pilgrimage to the crypt, to shed a few tears and pay my respects to some incredibly brave people. I urge anyone going to Prague to do the same, you will never forget it, the crypt has been left as it was with the desperate attempt to tunnel their way out still there. The ventilation slit on the outside still retains the damage caused by the machine guns.

annuskavdpol Anthropoid is a movie with a very fast laid out plot which enables the viewer to understand the story-line with an ease. It is unfortunate that the good guys need to die in the end; however they were soldiers on a mission - which both failed and succeeded at the same time. Most movies about good and bad guys often do not have a clear plot but that was not the case here. This movie director made it clear from the beginning that the 2 soldiers were in Prague to assassinate a powerful Nazi leader, who was known to have been the one and only one who developed the Holocaust Concentration Camps all over East Europe.

richt76 Another story that sits relatively silent in the West amongst the horror of WWII, the Czech experience. The last 40 minutes left me absolutely exhausted. Akin to Once Were Warriors, or the opening of Saving Private Ryan. It is relentless. To the bravery of those that always stand up, that fight back. That say 'NO'. Thank you.Beautifully soundscaped, harrowing that you know what's to come. The perversity of the Nazi ideology on display. If the whole film had had the intensity of that last 40 minutes, it'd be a masterpiece but as it is, it's a fine damn film. Watch it.
