Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"PHOENIX is an intoxicating witches' brew, equal parts melodrama and moral parable, that audaciously mixes diverse elements to compelling, disturbing effect." - 07/30/2015 Los Angeles Times


4 stars out of 5 -- "Petzold’s film resonates long after its perfect ending. This is a riveting piece of work that never loses sight of its human story while also serving as a commentary for how an entire country deals with tragedies like war." - 07/24/2015 RogerEbert.com


"Never less than intriguing, coolly intelligent and flawlessly paced..." - 07/24/2015 New York Times


"Its mystery-like trappings and twists keep us not so much guessing as waiting, to see who knows what and how that knowledge will be revealed -- and what that revelation will mean." - 08/13/2015 Chicago Sun-Times
