CriticsCritics: 59
AudienceAudience: 6.9

During World War II, a wounded German officer returns home and joins a resistance effort to remove Hitler from power. As he and his allies develop a plan to assassinate the dictator and establish a new government, he takes on a leading role in a dangerous operation where trust is scarce and failure could bring severe consequences.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like tense, fact-based political thrillers about resistance and high-stakes plots; Not for you if you want deep character exploration or consistent suspense throughout.
