Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

ellenlively Indie films usually stink. Not this one… The acting was okay in this movie. Actually, it was superb. Stephen Lang, especially, was wonderful. I found the American guy rather pointless. The movie could have left without him and it wouldn't have changed too much. The dialog is a bit cheesy and romanticized, but gets the emotions across. Christina is definitely a physiological drama. The plot was surprisingly solid. It may seem pointless and quite boring, but if you have patience, the movie develops nicely. The lighting and colors added to the drama and reminded me of Hitchcock. This movie was low…low, low, low budget, but you didn't really notice. It all took place in one room and there were basically only three people in it. An interesting picture of post-war Germany is painted. I found it very interesting. This film was unpredictable, disturbing, and thought-provoking. I didn't LIKE it, but I don't have any complaints. I wouldn't see it again. I would suggest this may disturb children.

wayneyb-896-644420 This story's theme may have been dark but it enlightens us to the grim reality of war. Don't miss the opening minutes of the film when actual post-war footage of Germany and its "survivors" set the tone for Christina's psychological dilemma. Sometimes, none of life's choices are pleasant and Christina's were especially difficult. Perhaps we all need the relentless pursuit of a "Reinhardt" in our lives to admit and accept our painful choices. And we need the love and acceptance of a Billy Calvert to catch us when we break. The actors were topnotch with convincing accents as they led you through the twists of the film. You should be prepared to cowl in your seat and bite your fingernails as this plot is compelling -- A must see!

underhill-797-312778 This drama takes place in a single room, a place at first of playfulness and mounting sexual tension, and then very skillfully the film's dialog shifts to confront the viewer with a complex and tense emotional situation that lays bare the awful choices that a young mother has had to face in the holocaust of Nazi Berlin's final days. Steven Lang's performance as a tenacious police detective is totally unexpected for those who saw him as the wonderfully tyrannical Colonel in Avatar. Niki Aycock endowed her character with such a sweep of emotional scope that it could well have required therapy after the shoot. Jordan Belfi's role is that of a reactor to the duel taking place between Lang an Aycock and he handles it seamlessly.It is reassuring that true art can still be produced on a budget when an intelligent script and sensitive direction give fine actors a platform. Superb, instinctive acting is accomplished by the three person cast. A thought provoking and engaging film.

erbyarby Christina is a moving and powerful film. It is cleverly staged and lighted. The performances of the 3 main characters are all compelling. It is a dramatic, captivating story that is remarkable relevant to today's world of seemingly endless war. The effects of war, subtle and profound, are presented in a way that makes the living hell become real for those fortunate to have not experienced it first hand. The fact that the film was shot in a condensed time frame, sequentially and on a limited budget make it even more remarkable. The entire movie is shot on one set, yet the camera movements and angles amplify the dialog very effectively and focus the attention of the viewer.
