Berlin '36 Ratings & Reviews
Shockya.com
Brent Simon
Not all true stories are created equal, as Berlin '36, which unfolds with such a singular lack of dramatic heft as to almost defy logic, amply demonstrates.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
Whatever the facts of the case, "Berlin 36" doesn't clear the bar for dramatic impact.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Tasteful to a fault, "Berlin 36" turns real-life controversy into disappointingly tepid drama.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
Kaspar Heidelbach's Berlin 36 may hold the dubious distinction of being the most tasteful movie to deal with Nazi Germany yet.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
Strong performances keep the film involving despite its pedestrian, workmanlike production.
New York Theatre Wire
Brandon Judell
While this dramatization of a heartwrenching story is never less than fascinating intellectually and the actors are adroit, the screenplay by Lothar Kurzawa is choppy and at times slightly clichd. It's as if someone has sat on the dramatic arc.
