In The Fog

I am addicted to Russian cinematic portrayals of the "Great Patriotic War". Happily, they have abandoned the propaganda of the Soviet-era, and now deal with the truly heart-rending barbarity that was inflicted by both sides upon the innocent occupants of the occupied areas of Belorus, the Ukraine and Russia during the post-Barborossa invasion. The acting and story line are faultless.

This is a wonderfup film. I have seen it twice. I did not understand the main character. He acted in ways I never would have: carrying on his back the injured man who had been sent to assasinate him, for one. He is an honorable who has been falsely accused and maligned. I have also seen My Joy, and The Return, two other outstanding films by the same Ukrainian director.

understated character study. a piece on how war affects people in different ways. all struggling to survive with different characters making different choices from nearly the same circumstances. a fine reflection on the way people and morals break down from the stress of war. somber in tone and character. excellent acting. you feel like youre in Belorussia in 42. peter rinaldi natchez ms

This is a thought provoking movie which takes place during WW2. NOT your everyday war movie in the least. If you have the patience then watch. You may not be satisfied in the end either. I found it to be very good.

real surprise ending.. kept me interested... can be a little slow at times, but it has its reasons.. It has alot of moral value for me. Also about forgiveness and compassion.

Outstanding! One of the best of its kind!

Great!

A good but strange ww2 type movie.
