- Gerard14 janvier 2026A true masterpiece, if you’ve never see it now is the time

- ols47129 décembre 2025Powerful story, story line still relevant. A cautionary tale.
- Stairwaytothestars3 décembre 2025With all the keys lined up THE PIANIST hits all the right notes in the monstrosity of war as Wladyslaw Szpilman played by the impressive Adrian Brody who is just trying to survive another bleak day in this true story. This is one of Roman Polanski's better films.
- ronwilding33013 octobre 2025Layers and layers of emotions throughout this movie. It leaves one with a haunting recollection that the holocaust was a long nightmare for so many innocent people. It is stark as well as startling in its presentation. I felt myself wanting to look away. For me, it was a portrait of the will to survive under intolerable atrocities. It is believable and important in its historical context.
- Judit Garrido7 août 2025Excellent movie, I have seen it before , still cried and cried.
- Charles London19 mai 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.
- Nick B1 août 2025The accelerating descent into the Holocaust from the Polish perspective is witnessed in excruciating detail from the perspective of a Jewish pianist. A poignant period piece that should be mandatory viewing in every World War II history course and a powerful warning from our past to be carried into the collective human future.
- Balsey Dean De Witt 23 juillet 2025Great movie, one of Adrien Brody’s early movies (2002)
- ionutovic2 avril 2025A hauntingly powerful and deeply moving portrayal of survival, humanity, and the horrors of war. Adrien Brody delivers a phenomenal performance that brings raw emotion to every scene. The cinematography, music, and direction by Roman Polanski make this film unforgettable. It’s not an easy watch, but it’s a necessary one—a true masterpiece.
