Defiance Reviews

7,6/10

A true story about the Bielski brothers, who led Jewish refugees to the Belarusian forests and created a hidden community. I loved the story of resilience and survival. However I don’t think this film tapped into the emotional depth of the real events & played things safe.

6.5

rewatched tonight on BBC4 HD, 30/01/26. Originally Watched this about 10 Years ago, based on a true story, not a big budget, but has Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell to keep you interested, epic story nonetheless 6.5/10

6/10 An interesting and fantastic Story based on a book written by another’s perspective of a True events. Great cast and well presented. Recommend (although could have been told under 2hs).

Devastating

eh

It's just a normal war movie. nothing really special, but it was really nice to see the conflict from the eastern front. 6/10

V good

7/10

it's OK. Decent cast and a fresh perspective on the way from Hollywood but nothing to write home about

I thought it was fine, really gripped true story during the holocaust it just kind of lost me emotionally. Thought the characters could’ve been a lot better structured and gripping, I still thought the story was good and what great hero’s shown!

A really interesting and captivating ww2 film based on a true story. Daniel Craig gives perhaps one of his best performances in this film.

Based on true story, good movie

Gripping Holocaust story ​​​​​​​​​
