   There is an evil in this world thats impossible to look away from The small details, the tiny blink and miss moments, the daily repetition of life. It’s never been more haunting to watch someone clean or do chores I didn’t flinch, I didn’t move an inch Don’t make a sound You are left to audibly digest all horrors that mankind can bring You must gaze into the very dark chasm of this world and only then can you speak

   A chilling directorial achievement with some of the most purposeful sound design I’ve ever heard. And yet, I couldn’t help but feel that the film was very one-note; deliberately so, I’m sure. Even so, the banality of evil can only sustain a horrific on-screen atmosphere for so long. I was chilled to the bone during the first half of the film and only felt that same sensation in fleeting moments during the second half (the piano scene, when the boy locks his brother in the greenhouse, etc.) I appreciate what the film was going for but I can’t say it remained effective for me personally the entire way through.

   You could hear a pin drop in a packed house. As soon as it was over, I sat in quiet, absolutely distraught. It made me feel genuinely sick. Nothing could have prepared me for this. We begin in darkness and end in total emotional torment. In a decade full with important films, I believe this is one of the most significant, if not the most. The reluctance to follow a conventional story is admirable; each sequence develops and builds until it bursts at the end and broke me. So relentless and strong, yet full of creative flair and distinct direction. The best sound design in quite some time, dedicated to providing a permanent, horrific experience. Glazer succeeds on all fronts…

   Why must I watch the inner lives of Nazis? I was hoping Glazer would answer that question but this film does not go into any enlightening or thought-provoking territory beyond, like, “here it is, the banality of evil! Also here are some random ‘experimental’ shots in between.” What a hack of an ending too. Like, what is new or interesting or moving here? I’m not sure. Plus, seeing this shortly after Anatomy of a Fall really made me think wow, such misuse of the wonderful Sandra Huller (who, here, refers to herself as “The Queen of Auschwitz”). Also, question: Did the movie look like shit on purpose?

   the cut directly at the end of this, from the holocaust museum back to Höss traveling down the stairs, sucks the air right out my lungs. history collapsing in on itself, evil surrendering itself to time, unforgivably vile men becoming stories to the slaughters of the future. the history of Nazism becoming standard, banal history does nothing but dull its genuine impact to the world, ensuring the future of fascism to the next generations and beyond. it makes me want to vomit. a deeply wretched film

   Holocaust cinema has so implicitly existed in the shadow of a single question that it would no longer seem worth asking if not for the fact that it’s never been answered: How do you depict an atrocity? The most urgent and indelible examples of the form offer equally simple yet perfectly contradictory responses. Documentaries like “Shoah” and Alain Resnais’ “Night and Fog” suggest that you don’t, while historical epics like “Schindler’s List” insist that you must. If the latter argues that seeing is believing, the former maintains that seeing wouldn’t help — that some things are too unfathomable for the human eye to comprehend from a distance, and can only hope to be understood by their absence. A tsunami might…

   Maybe it’s because when you’re Jewish you tend to learn about the Holocaust at a younger age and you keep learning more as life goes on, and maybe Glazer is trying to reach a gentile audience that can’t grasp the banality of evil without seeing it play out. But for me, the banality of evil is the only way to understand such atrocities, and depicting that banality for 100 minutes doesn’t add anything beyond Arendt’s famous and straightforward assessment of Eichmann. The film isn’t helped by everything being so glaringly obvious. It’s a juxtaposition you get immediately—this family enjoys comfort while suffering exists right outside their door. That’s it. That’s the movie. But any extrapolation of that—of how we dehumanize…

   Made me physically ill. Impossible to watch a movie about casual, bureaucratic genocide without being consumed with horror about what Israel, enabled by America, is doing to the Palestinian people in Gaza. The casual, almost offhanded, discussions about mass murder felt disgustingly familiar from any number of clips of the President, or pundits, or Twitter threads. 20,000 dead, half of them children, executed by a cold-blooded government. It shouldn’t take 80 years to recognize this kind of inhumanity. We shouldn’t wait for history. Ceasefire now.

    It turned out to be surprisingly fitting to see this film preceded by the final work by Jean-Luc Godard. Godard once declared the end of cinema, but with The Zone of Interest Jonathan Glazer has built the guillotine. Michael Haneke once famously criticized Schindler’s List for Spielberg’s application of his filmmaking talent to scenes of the most horrific inhumanity, particularly the moment where Spielberg creates suspense out of whether or not prisoners are about to be showered with gas or water. What Haneke left unsaid was that the cinematic grammar which Spielberg has such firm command over has its roots in the promotion of fascist ideology. Haneke said that no film about the Holocaust can have any attempt at “entertainment,”…

    nada contra os filmes que trazem uma boa fotografia e esse ar mais “contemplativo” mas poxa você escolheu um cenário de guerra ao lado de um campo de extermínio e você simplesmente ignora esse fato? e ok é óbvio que todo filme depende da sensibilidade de quem assiste mas cadê a SUA sensibilidade? Você poderia ter feito um puta filme aproveitando cenas boas (principalmente no momento das queimas) e simplesmente foi vazio. Cenário bom execução mediocre De mim Para o diretor

    first things first, this film is one of the most extraordinary films i have watched in a while and its a 4.75/5 for me. the theme is heavy and it manages to convey what it wants to in a very impactful way without the help of any visuals. the way this film uses sound is groundbreaking and honestly very few films shall be able to achieve the impact this film did with its sound. the sound elevates the film to…

    La película me hizo sentir muy impotente y confundida. Durante toda la película tuve la sensación de que apenas estaba viendo una parte de la historia porque el resto estaba en mi imaginación y era una historia de terror, porque el terror que más miedo genera es el que no puedes ver. Si solo te enfocas en los niños, parece una infancia completamente normal. Juegan, exploran y viven como cualquier otro niño. Pero los gritos, los disparos y las pláticas…

    Aprovechan por completo el sonido de ambientación y todo este medio que se vuelve un personaje más en la película. Si tienen la oportunidad de verla con audífonos o un buen equipo de sonido háganlo, la experiencia cambia por completo, ya que la película no utiliza ningún contenido visual explícito pero aún así provoca una desesperación y un miedo solo con lo que escuchas.

    This was a conflicting one. On the surface I can appreciate this film as a genuine work of art. The cinematography is great, the sound design is outstanding, and it’s very impactful in how it highlights the brutality of the holocaust by showing the mundane boring lives of the perpetrators. But… that’s exactly what stopped me from enjoying it. Unfortunately I just found it really boring. I didn’t care about the characters and I was never intrigued by the plot, which made for a long unenjoyable watch.

    You never get the chance to notice how little other movies use static shots in a movie. This movie wouldn’t be possible if it used heavily polished, dynamic shots left and right. Throughout the movie the background audio is exactly what gets filtered out in today’s movies. I interpret it as, you don’t need any crazy special effects or storyline to show just how sinister the reality really was

    Este filme baseia-se na vida de uma família nazi, cujo pai é o general encarregado das operações no campo de concentração de Auschwitz. A casa deles situa-se literalmente ao lado do muro pertencente ao campo, revelando um aspeto visual e temático fascinante: o contraste entre o jardim perfeito da família e os edifícios do campo, separados apenas por um alto muro. De um lado, uma atmosfera de aparente paz e calma, do outro uma realidade oposta. Mas a ideia das…

    The camera seems to invite you to peak over the wall into the concentration camp. We follow the cuotidian life of a nazi house wife. You overhear the screaming as she puts on her makeup. I soon found myself ignoring the subtitles. How could anything they have to say matter in the face of the genicide taking place right next door. If they dont care, then why should i? The movie doesn’t actually show you anything and in that way…

    Till now, I have never known what type of films I was scared of. But now I know. I’m scared of Jonathan Glazer films. I’m scared right now by it. The Zone of Interest does not scream it. Does not scream the dehumanization, does not scream the Holocaust. It mumbles it. It mumbles it in the background. It’s like it’s happening right now. You just didn’t know it. It’s very subtle. You are living your lives with your loved ones,…

    Bone chilling. Revolting. A movie that I can respect in its anti genocide message but I just seem to like yelling a louder protest; which is something this movie almost shies away from. Of course this adds to the horror and the inhumane, but I just think there is an irreconcilable gap between what I like in a movie and Glazer’s stylistic choices. Sound design hard carries a movie that otherwise falls flat like a shout that’s not allowed to come out. I will never rewatch this.

    Okay I loved this film but I do have a lot of fleeting opinions about how the structure could have been. First of all I had anticipated a slow observational film that would be so excruciating to realise yourself engaging in more in the story than the sounds of the atrocities in the background. This did happen, however with the separate plot line of the girl with the fruit, and the jump forward to Auschwitz present day developed layers that…

    Un film assolutamente da vedere. Racconta alla perfezione la vita dei cittadini tedeschi e dei familiari delle SS al di fuori dei campi di concentramento. L’opera mostra il “paradiso” illusorio costruito a ridosso del campo e l’indifferenza quotidiana della famiglia di fronte al rumore dei treni, agli spari, alle urla e al fumo costante. Emerge chiaramente il fallimento dell’ideologia ariana applicata alla popolazione tedesca: l’unica persona estranea al nucleo familiare scappa il giorno dopo, svegliata dalle ciminiere e sfinita dall’odore.…

    The Zone of Interest gives me the mixed emotions and my point of view as Pole might be influenced by other factors. First of all it was boring as hell for me, no major plot or character developments, characters themselves were dull and simple. What movie is trying to teach us is very simplistic and obvious, like yes, we know that Nazis are bad and killing Jews is not okey. The way it chooses to show it to us is…
