"Denial" is captivating, a true courtroom film that touches on the reverberating pain of the Holocaust.
"Denial" is a good show both inside and outside the courtroom, and it's an exceptionally rich fertile ground. Unfortunately, despite the cast's valuable efforts, the movie seems to be a bit of a dud.
The film is too talkative and a bit artificial, and those words aren't usually good words for compliments, but here they are.
The film misses one vital thing that should be at the heart of the courtroom drama, how Lipstadt's lawyers determine their strategy, and the audience should be immersed in it.
A moving, morally charged film that presents a noble intellectual contest with a thought-provoking plot and a stirring sensational effect
