london-return11 I would rank this movie along with Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Bastards as one of the best war time movies. It was without doubt a thriller. You should however gloss over some liberties taken in the script related to knowledge of concentration camps, the camaraderie and parleying on equal terms with the Nazis etc., Every frame was nail baiting one. There were a lot of twists and turns throughout. The brutality of Nazi Germany is revealed without any gross exhibition. No Blood, no hanging, no bodies lying around. The movie begins with shots of the Auschwitz museum. It gradually catches pace keeping you engrossed throughout. I will watch this movie again after 6 months for its sheer adrenalin rush. There was this commentator who listed out a number of errors related to custom, wrong airplane. Come on guys, this is a movie. Allow the Director/Script Writer to take some liberty so that he can make the movie enjoyable. If you want 100 accuracy you need to watch a documentary not a fictional movie.

Armand The last WW is a generous field for every experiment in art. The facts may be ingredients for games, moral lessons or love stories. "The Aryan Couple" is one of that stories.Seductive and childish, beautiful and strange, about price of freedom and food for emotions, romance and thriller, with a spectacular cast, it is precise definition of good and evil and gift for any form of hope. Martin Landau is Prometheus of action. Judy Parffit- the spice. The events are only shadows and the Nazis - cartoons.Not a great movie but a delicious trip to a lost age. Not a historical page but Schindler's list for teenagers. Amovie about a reality and a honey truth. A game. Ad usum Delphini.

sgodwin-1 I thought the story might be plausible. If it was early enough in the war, maybe Eichman and Himmler did have subtle confrontations. I certainly agreed that all that wealth would allow 2 Jews to go to the guy signing the check! I thought the photography was beautiful, the clothing and hairstyles remarkably accurate yet different from what I have seen in the past. The train and cars and guns - what authenticity. I think this film gives a different perspective in the earlier part of the war. Who knows for sure what went on? I could see the Germans in this movie and see the hatred and utter ghoulish nature that they have evoked (costumers and makeup certainly help). I thought the concern with which Kratzenburg showed each individual is what help make him successful in the past and would help him to achieve his ends now.

janecreates It's a shame that such serious subject matter was ruined by such bad direction and a terrible script. The concept of The Europa deals, and the plight of the Jews in WW2 are great and worthy subject matter. But here, they were developed into a wooden, ill developed, emotionally immature, corny script, which I felt was a crime against the film industry! Sadly I have to say the same about the direction - who was telling who the story? ( What unbalanced story there was!) It was muddled, heavy handed and corny. My heart goes out to the actors who played the Aryan Couple. They struggled valiantly throughout, but even with the obviously good skills of both, ( Kenny Doughty, Caroline Carver) this old fashioned dinosaur of a film struggled to get going. The best bits were when they were on the screen, which to my opinion was far too little. Both deserve much better.
