3.5/5
"Though certainly not Wajda's strongest film, Katyn is perhaps his most affecting since his 1970s to '80s heyday."  Filmcritic.com  Chris Cabin

4/5
"Oscar-winning Polish writer/director Andrzej Wajda is now 83 years old. But he thankfully hasn't lost his ability to outrage viewers for all the right reasons."  eFilmCritic.com  Dan Lybarger

2/5
"Had [Wajda] been able to make the movie at the other end of his 50-year career, it might not seem as trite and forgettable as it does now."  The L Magazine  Henry Stewart

4/5
"Impeccably shot and edited, this harrowing drama digs into the mystery of the murder of some 12,000 Polish officers in the early 1940s, which the Soviets falsely blamed on the Nazis. It's extremely grim, but well worth seeing."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

"Andrjez Wajda, whose father was one of the officers killed in Katyn, uses the event to explore some of the unhealed wounds suffered by the Poles in World War II."  Seanax.com  Sean Axmaker

4/10
"In its headlong rush to declare its own importance, it forgets to be whatsoever engaging. Though a decently-crafted film, it is resolutely airless and leaden."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton
