The Zone of Interest Ratings & Reviews
- Morgan_815April 10, 2025,,the Zone of Interest” reveals the horror of human nature not trough violence,but silence. Beneath blooming gardens and warm sunlight,sunlight,unspeakable cruelty festers-ignored,unseen. Colors become a mask,softening the edge of atrocity. Against this emptiness, justice feels like a ghost-present,but powerless. Glazer show us that the darkest evil wears the calmest face.
- PatrikStarMarch 26, 2025Incredible movie, incredible sound design. Will never watch it again.
- Kevin WardJuly 2, 2025Exceptional camera framing and sound design capture people going about their every day lives while some of the most horrific atrocities ever committed exist just beyond the frame, barely (but constantly) within audible range. Mowing lawns, swimming in pools, smelling flowers, celebrating birthdays, striving for promotions—all manners of the mundanities of human existence press forward while the soundtrack of absolute evil echoes in the distance. This film may be one note, but it is a powerful note that crescendo’s loudest in it’s final shots. The human ability to zone out the atrocities happening all around us is not unique to that time period or even to the nazi regime. Incredibly strong directorial vision from Jonathan Glazer.
- burtjohansonFebruary 5, 2025Perhaps the most violent movie I have ever seen - all done without a single frame of violence onscreen. Haunting is the only word that fits. Best experienced in the theater or in a dark, quiet room at home with noise cancelling headphones.
- RyezooFebruary 4, 2025While the cinematography is well done and the incredible sound design is haunting, this didn’t move the needle for me. Out of the 10 Oscar nominees for best picture, I’d place this last. Just felt like I was an observer of awful nazis, while terrible things are happening offscreen.
- Rowan KrzysiakJanuary 6, 2025It seems a bit wrong to judge this as entertainment at all given the subject matter but, there was a lot of hoo-ha about it so I was kinda excited going in. That said, I personally found it a bit boring and was disappointed. I get it and get what it was doing and for some it's likely an emotional sucker punch, sadly for me it wasn't.
