Resistance

I loved this film. I first saw it on Prime Video and just had to have it. Already watched it 3 times!@

As I see it this interesting idea was not developed as I'd like to see.

I thought it would be more exciting.

Not that good.

Hi, this movie was like watching paint dry. Big resistance move was to shoot a horse?

Anything else, I usually don't write reviews, unless the movies are pretty bad,

“Resistance” is based on the concept that the Allies lost World War II. The time is 1944. The Allied D-Day invasion has failed, Britain has been invaded and is now under Nazi occupation. In a small Welsh village, 26-year-old farmer’s wife Sarah Lewis (Andrea Riseborough) awakens to discover that her husband along with all the other men are gone, having fled the village to join the Resistance. Soon after, a German patrol arrives and sets up an outpost in the valley. When the severe winter forces the two groups to cooperate, Sarah befriends the commanding officer, Albrecht (Tom Wlaschiha), blurring the lines between collaboration, duty, and occupation.The alternate history concept has been used on film previously in “Inglorious Basterds” and in print in Philip Roth’s “The Plot Against America.” The notion allows for creative speculation of how people would act if fate took a dramatically different turn. Director Amit Gupta keeps his focus narrow rather than taking an expansive view at what a Nazi-ruled England and Europe would mean. He sets his sights on average folks rather than the political infrastructure, the military, or the greater Resistance movement. In order to survive, Sarah must do what she can. Personal resistance is fruitless, so she connects on a personal level with Albrecht, who is not the stereotype of the heel-clicking monster so prevalent in movies. He is a decent man, and that is what resonates with Sarah.The film is a dark fable and succeeds as a fascinating “What if…” tale of war, its aftermath, acceptance of the inevitable and, ultimately, survival.There are no bonus features on the widescreen DVD release.

I had low expectations for this movie. Little advertising usually means "B" or "C" class film. Not this time. I rented this film, but was impressed with all the "A" class style. Great scenic visuals, great details ( clothing, uniforms, weapons, acting, etc.). Not lots of action, but the drama keeps you interested and watching. I was impressed enough to add this movie to my wish list. The first 3/4 of it was fantastic. Started dragging in the last quarter. The German soldiers are shown as real people, same as G.I.s, they are not SS. The English civilians are between a rock and a hard place. No easy solutions! We have a Brit civilian sniper who is tasked to shoot British civilians that befriend or collaborate with German soldiers, a very depressing and tough call on his part. This movie is very good, but the very end really sucked. No satisfaction for the viewer. Too bad, I could have come up with two or three very good endings, but don't let that worry you, it is still a good movie worth watching.

RESISTANCE This is the type of movie I like to watch. I'm sure you will like it too if you are a fan of WWII movies. RESISTANCE

Beurteilung des Filmes.Meine Erwartungen wurden nicht erfüllt.Spannung wurde oft aufgebaut aber es passierte dann nicht viel.Ich möchte, aber nicht zum Ausdruck bringen der Film ist schlecht.

This is one of my favourite films. It's beautiful. There isn't a lot of action but I find it visually stunning.

Very slow movie not much action.
