A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
WWII Bomb Hunters
The Allies dropped over 5 million bombs on Nazi Germany. One out of every ten didn't explode. The men of bomb disposal teams in Germany risk their lives every day to eliminate these dangerous remnants of war. 5,000 undetonated ordnances are found per year and tens of thousands of people are evacuated. In Germany, bomb disposal services clear an average of 100 World War II bombs per week.

I walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.

A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
