Over deze film

Based on an extraordinary true story, Defiance is an epic tale of family, honour, vengeance and salvation in World War II. The year is 1941 and the Jews of Eastern Europe are being massacred by the thousands. Managing to escape certain death, three brothers take refuge in the dense surrounding woods they have known since childhood. There they begin their desperate battle against the Nazis. Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell star as brothers who turn a primitive struggle to survive into something far more consequential- a way to avenge the deaths of their loved ones by saving thousands of others. © MMVIII by DEFIANCE PRODUCTIONS, LLC.

Beoordelingen en reviews

The Bielskis were also criminals, deserters of the polish army and therefore traitors of pro soviet inclination. Movie goofs: their bad russian accents (they spoke polish anyway) and shooting at tanks (they never encountered in real life). Another movie where german soldiers are underperforming against a poorly trained and equipped crowd. Far off real life events. Smells like b**** u know xhat i mean.

This its one of those movies which cuts deep and its not background viewing. Superb acting, directing etc and a very moving story. Highly recommended

Watched it on the TV and I think it is worth it. Actual story portrayed perfectly by Daniel Craig and leaves you with a bitter-sweet feeling. I would definetly buy it if I hadn't watched it already.
