  • Leningrad

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Was a mixed bag really, im not one for the subtitled films so instantly this lost marks but then its my fault for watching it, but what can I say? It's accurate, compelling and down-right gritty, keeping you hooked, if all be it a bit poorly acted.

  • Not Just a War Film

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By Seedyvee (183 reviews) from Grantham , 19 May 2013
    This is another of those films like 'Paschendaele' that has a title that leads one to expect a grand historical epic but delivers instead the private story of a few individuals caught up within the overall theme. As it is based on a true story it commands more respect and the horrors of the siege are well conveyed. However the film is slow-moving and the music too often feels detached from the drama.

  • interesting take on the Leningrad siege

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    Quite surprisingly it is not really a war movie, it is more focused on the drama of the people who got trapped in the city. The battle is going on out there in the distance… Good movie, just don't expect much details about the military operations etc… Decent acting and effects.

    It could have been a very good film but sadly it wasn't and it was long and drawn out with I might say some very moving sequences.

  • Amazing Story but a little Boring.

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By babylon (112 reviews) from Rochester , 19 Jan 2013
    Amazing story based on fact. I found some of the sub titles difficult to read. I didn't find the film gripping and found my concentration wandering at times.

    Another very well made film /docudrama. An enjoyable history lesson. Good acting and a realistic script make this a amust see movie. Told in a non-sensenational style this film appealed has a reality that appeals to me..
