13 Minutes explores an oft-neglected corner of World War II history with just enough craft and narrative momentum to offset a disappointing lack of subtlety.

Friedel conveys an awful lot simply with his eyes as Elser, projecting lusty soulfulness in happier times, sorrow over the Nazis' rise to power, and stunned disbelief at his plot's failure. Jul 27, 2017 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

It puts one in the mind to make a meme: Hitler reacts to Oliver Hirschbiegel's prosaic flashback transitions. Jul 21, 2017 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Conspiracy theories surrounded the Elser plot for years, and his political motives have been debated; as scripted here, he acted alone and purely from moral conviction, which Friedel conveys in a passionate, charismatic performance. Jul 20, 2017 | Full Review…

When 13 Hours focuses on the assassination attempt and the interrogation, it is at it's best -- a bare-bones thriller that is interesting and engaging. Oct 25, 2018 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

It is refreshing, heart breaking but, surprisingly, uplifting to know that individuals like Georg Elser existed and hopefully still exist. Aug 22, 2018 | Full Review…

The bottom line about Elser's story -- and this perhaps explains why he remains an obscurity -- is that it petered out. After starting with a bang, so does 13 Minutes. Nov 21, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

This concerns an attack on the Führer's life, on November 8, 1939... Told in beautifully layered flashback, this is not just the story of what happened that night but of the events that led up to it. Oct 30, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Matthew Bond
The kind of run-of-the-mill biopic that seems like a telefim, with a conventional script that lays every detail out in the open (in case you have any cognitive problem) and a series of irrelevant flashbacks that don't really help us understand the character as well as they should.
