In January 1942, as the United States enters World War II, a conference assembles near Berlin. SS Gen. Heydrich (Kenneth Branagh) and his associate, Lt. Eichmann (Stanley Tucci) call the meeting to discuss the "evacuation" of Germany's Jews and other undesirables, a code word for their extermination in concentration camps.

Nancy Banks-Smith Guardian 02/26/2020
The script of Conspiracy is flat and matter-of-fact, creviced by deep silences as middle management stare into the chasm that has opened at their feet. Go to Full Review Melvin Backman The New Yorker 08/23/2018
The result of a meeting is only as good as the parties present, their aims and their wills. Wannsee was not where the Holocaust's if became when but, rather, where when became how soon. Go to Full Review John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture 02/05/2018
... Loring Mandel has written a script that's scary in its understatement and Frank Pierson has directed a television movie that's even scarier because it might just as well have been a board meeting of investment bankers... Go to Full Review David Keyes Cinemaphile.org 04/07/2015

Zoltan K @zadge75 1d Deserves 4 stars. Could get 5 stars if a shameful blooper didn't degrade it within the dialogs. More than once, at least twice was told about "israelites". Israelites refers to people living in Israel. Israel was founded in 1948. Wannsee conference had taken place at 1942. Unless being a time traveller, Eichmann was not able to know about israel, israelites, something that would be established six years from then. Quote at the end: Heydrich (Kenneth Branagh): That was Kritzinger's warning. Eichmann (Stanley Tucci): What? That we should not hate the israelites? Wish I could give five stars. If not the script writer, nor the director didn't correct this mistake why didn't anyone of the cast speak up against it? See more Nils E @NilsEr Dec 26 The brilliant of this story is the normality. Excellent must see! See more Ulla J Nov 19 Brilliant acting, scary beyond measure. I feel sick, but glad I have seen it. I wonder how the actors felt making it See more Ramon L @Ramonelle Nov 3 I thought I would be watching the "Conspiracy" to assassinate Adolf Hitler. Instead, it was a boring table discussion that was fixed on a single scene virtually all of the 58 minutes I was watching it before I walked out. See more Brad M 11/13/2024 For WW2 history buffs.
