'See what it's like'

A Customer from Glasgow, 3rd July, 2007

You'll understand the relevance of the phrase when you watch this profoundly disturbing indictment of middle-class complacency. Typical of Haneke, it raises questions of responsibility guilt and the malevolence of ignorance (in all it's aspects). I wouldn't recommend letting a 15 year-old watch it -despite the certificate. It is a powerful and important film that you will not take lightly.

Not Uo To Much

Paul Guichard from Southend On Sea, 30th June, 2009

Murder by a Teen of a Teen. English subtitles didn't quite match the German script, but it passed a rather uneventful morning.
