Very hard and my my tribute to all the innocent victims, 28 October 2007
7/10
Author: Luigi Di Pilla from Riehen, Switzerland

I expected a hard film and I wasn't wrong. If you cannot digest suffering scenes this isn't for you. The story is well built and shows the countdown from the arrests until the arrival to the nightmare Ausschwitz. I was never boring because there were lot of moments where I have to think about. I still cannot believe that the humanity is able to do pains and kill so many innocent people but it's the truth. The history shows that the Jewish people have been always followed in the past and I can only pray for all the victims and children that have to die during the second World War. DER LETZTE ZUG has a great meaning for me and we should never forget what happened in the wars. All the actors played very strong and this movie should earn at least attention from all the audience. 7/10.

Basically it's just a train ride but you can feel the despair and increasing hopelessness people in there are facing on that last train that will eventually take them to Auschwitz and certain death. The acting of everyone is very convincing (esp. Lena Beyerling, Gedeon Burkhard and Sibell Kekilli). Even though some things that happen on the train are left to your imagination you end up having a pretty realistic idea (minus the smell, thirst, hunger, and the corpses) of how it must have been like inside those wagons - and still it's unbelievable. Seeing the ashes of dead Jews falling like snow, accompanied by Beethoven ('To joy') gives you the chills. The story might not be based on real characters but it's as close to the truth as it gets. Making the movie was a bold move, but it was worth making. Go see this movie, you won't regret it.

Unbelievable Bad Movie, 9 March 2009
1/10

The Script for this Movie must have been written by a 12 year old child. Not a single scene was realistic, not a single dialog believable. The very common movie about Jewish people suffering during the holocaust: Good versus evil, a lot of babies crying, Christian nun ignores Jews bagging for help, not all Germans are bad, really careful people who offer their own lives for lives of their family,... The most cliché-idiotic scene: a 10 year old child escapes from the train which has stopped in a station, runs through a railway track while patrolling Nazis are distracted by the other prisoners and believe it or not: her foot gets jammed in the track - BUT! thats not all!! A train is coming from the other way!!! What do you think? Can she make it? Of course, but in the last seconds...omg

I mean: isn't there really any other way to do this? Is it really only possible by collecting all the usual clichés that we have seen thousands of times, and playing them one after another? But see for your self...or better don't!

(sorry for my English)
