8/10
"Though war has ended, ideology endures. Carpet bombing canīt bury a generation of poisonous lies."

Christopher Long
B-
"A horror movie in the manner of a neo-realist film, where fantasy mixes with reality."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
4/4
"There's rarely a shot that doesn't portray the utter hopelesness of Edmund's situation, and it makes his eventual fate feel almost inevitable, if no less wrenching as a result."
Film and Felt
Gabe Leibowitz
3.5/4
"Even if you don't entirely buy into the final moments (which I didn't), they do little to lessen the power and profundity of the film's overall message about what a world at war does to those caught in the crossfire"
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
4/4
"Even as
Germany Year Zero
promotes a definite agenda, it remains admirable, because it incorporates politics without sacrificing its technical and storytelling virtues."
