Critic Reviews for The 12th Man

All Critics (21) | Top Critics (12) | Fresh (18) | Rotten (3)

  • A war film that wears superior influences on its sleeve. On the flipside, it brings us the best reindeer-chase scene ever committed to film.

    January 4, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

    Rory Marsh

    Little White Lies

  • A bold end to an original version of a familiar tale.

    January 4, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

    Kevin Maher

    Times (UK)

  • Baalsrud never claimed to be a hero and the emphasis of this gripping reconstruction rightly falls on the resourcefulness, courage and self-sacrifice of those who epitomised the spirit of resistance.

    January 3, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

    David Parkinson

    Empire Magazine

  • A handsomely produced but laborious, drawn-out and dramatically inert movie...

    January 3, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

    Peter Bradshaw

    Guardian

  • The best freedom-fighting reindeer in all of cinema can be found right here in "The 12th Man."

    May 8, 2018 | Full Review…

    Jordan Hoffman

    Times of Israel

  • When Baalsrud, played with resilience by Thomas Gullestad, isn't dodging Germans, his fights against the elements bring to mind films such as The Revenant.
