I think it was really good. It lacked character development in the first part, and second part happened a little too quick. Great story and great realization.

it’d be slightly better for me personally if it was more centred around reinhard heydrich ofc its important to include operation anthropoid buttttttttt the sudden shift in focus halfway through the movie lowkey made things seem unfinished for me???? NEVERTHELESS the scenery was 🔛🔝 as well as actors performances still…..… i wish i’d gotten a more focused psychological dive into heydrich himself BUT WHO AM I TO ASK

I would have forgiven how horrible this movie was if they actually casted someone that looked remotely similar to Heydrich
