Movie Review by AJ

By all means, this should have been the amazing, profound political masterpiece that everyone else thinks it is. Unfortunately, it moves at a snail's pace and very rarely seems to find its footing. The performances are interesting (especially Maximilian Schell's), as are the weighty moral questions raised, but on the whole the film is only as interesting as reading the courtroom transcripts...which I could've read at my own pace and without the semi-successful attempts at character development. There are a few truly effective scenes, such as when film of Nazi concentration camps are shown, but Judgment at Nuremberg manages to dull all of the sharp points it raises with a sheer lack of energy.
