Kraume brings muted colors and a claustrophobic, urgent energy to the procedural part of this story, while reminding us that not every moral hero looks like Captain America - in fact, like Bauer, they can be a rumpled, misanthropic mess. Sep 1, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

What "The People vs. Fritz Bauer" does so well is distill large, complicated political issues into an intimate, personal story about one man's desire to bring not only justice, but catharsis to post-war Germany, mired in a fog of complacency. Aug 19, 2016 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

The dialogue is too expository and makes references to events that we should see dramatized, especially Bauer's earlier life and how he would have experienced 1945. Feb 12, 2019 | Full Review…

Kraume deftly blends historical drama and a legal procedural with a noirish cold war era spy thriller elements in the highly entertaining The People vs. Fritz Bauer. Aug 28, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The result may not be highbrow experimental art cinema, but ... its explicit mission to tell Bauer's story to as many people as it can shouldn't be underrated in the current global political climate. Aug 25, 2018 | Full Review…

Director/co-writer Lars Kraume navigates this complex, fascinating story chronologically with his and Olivier Guez's screenplay a targeted indictment of post-WWII Nazis hiding in plain sight with each other's cooperation duplicity. Aug 29, 2017 | Full Review…
