The Aftermath Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
I kept thinking of Donald Duck's nephews: For all its noble intentions, "The Aftermath" is dewey, gooey and, even with its moments, hooey.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
From the moment Rachael and Stefan look into each other's eyes while we roll OUR eyes, The Aftermath is a runaway train of cornball cliches.
Arizona Republic
Melissa Yeager
It's an enjoyable deviation from the typical war story, but if there were more layers of warmth and stronger emotional connections between the characters, it could have built to a more satisfying conclusion.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Its moves are telegraphed to anyone who's ever seen a stately period romance, and its handsome production can't overcome its myriad clichés.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"The Aftermath" is a lot of pretty mush. Or, rather, it's like suds; its lovely bubbles pop, leaving nothing behind.
Observer
Rex Reed
I left with endless troubling questions unanswered. The melodrama turned shallow. I loved the beauty and tenderness, but I didn't believe The Aftermath.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The movie is both ridiculous and enjoyable.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
There's a ripping good story buried somewhere in "The Aftermath," an intriguing but ultimately disappointing story set in the rubble of post-World War II Germany.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
The aftermath of WW2 is a resonant topic that is totally botched here. What's left is soap opera, leaving suds that even the stellar Knightley, Skarsgård and Clarke can't rinse off their performances.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
There's nothing wrong with "Aftermath," but for one strange and nagging thing: To watch it is to want to be far away from its world and everyone in it.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The Aftermath wants to be a great war romance, but it's stuck inside of Hamburg with the Casablanca blues again.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
A soapy wartime melodrama with a disturbing whiff of both sides-ism.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
When all of these various plot strands do finally collide they do so with a heavy-handed thud that's both obnoxiously coincidental as well as being emotionally disingenuous.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Knightley's character is - hello! - more sympathetic and sensual than in the novel, while Clarke's is more one-dimensional, to the point of caricature.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Christy Lemire
It does not achieve the emotional resonance that it's looking for, but Keira Knightly does wear some great dresses.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
An emotionally constipated movie about emotional constipation.
RogerEbert.com
Peter Sobczynski
A listlessly soapy melodrama [that], save for a little bit of modern-day nudity and bloodshed, could have been churned out 60-70 years ago and then gone largely forgotten in the ensuing decades.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
British director James Kent and his colleagues have mounted an unusually handsome production with beautiful people in the foreground. But The Aftermath sacrifices substance for soap opera, and the results are mediocre at best
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
the focus of "The Aftermath" is in all the wrong places, spending time with characters in which we are unable to gain an emotional foothold. This misplaced attention makes for an erotic drama that feels cold, and a political thriller that feels empty.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
The Aftermath shows that even the most foolproof ideas wither in the face of turgid, overripe melodrama.
