Uprising, though flawed in a lot of ways, is still worth checking out if only to learn about a true-life inspirational tale. [More]

Did you actually say that this movie is flawed because it portrays the Nazis too harshly? Like they were casual, brutal killers or something? They were! As if "just following orders" excuses them from the consequences of the actions they were taking? There's a reason the Nazi regime is the prime example of evil, so obvious and useless as to be unexplainable, of the 20th century. Don't ask our filmmakers to make it more acceptable by downplaying it.

Rengland, it might be easy for folks like yourself to easily write off the Nazis as "unexplainable evil" (there is no such thing) rather than objectively research the method and reasoning behind their madness. Does the movie bother to distinguish between the hardcore Nazi SS and the average soldiers of the German Army swept up into the chaos? No. Does it explain that carrying a rifle and doning a uniform for their country was a lot more appealing than starving to death homeless in a back alley somewhere? Nope. Therefore, it's flawed.
