The Pianist Ratings & Reviews
- Balsey Dean De Witt 2July 3, 2025Great movie, one of Adrien Brody’s early movies (2002)
- Toronto122February 17, 2025An absolutely perfect movie. Tense, emotional, and thought provoking. From the acting to the sets to the costumes, everything is a perfect 10. One of the greatest movies of our time.
- Charles LondonMay 19, 2025An absolutely amazing true story of Holocaust survival through a combination of immense musical talent, personal connections, stoic determination, and the grace of incredibly good fortune. It has to be seen to be believed. Polanski's film washes over you like a Chopin nocturne, replete with passages of deep emotion, ascending notes of tension, sudden tumultuous movements, and haunting interludes. Prepare to be affected and keep a tissue handy. The audience feels Szpilman's emotional pain and utter exhaustion...then ultimately his bittersweet relief.
