Not good

Good (2008)

Directed by Vicente Amorim this film based on the play of the same name stars Viggo Mortensen, Jason Isaacs and Jodie Whittaker. In the 1930s a literature professor who is generally agnostic on political matters slowly becomes involved with the Nazis.

As an exploration of the decent into darkness that Germany went through I am not sure this is the most convincing or in depth look at the issue. At times it seems more like a look into ultimate naivety and selfishness. What the film does well is not seem like it is just a play on screen at least.


2/5
