7/10
A galvanising movie.
20 June 2007
Atlast the wait is over, we see a German POW portrayed in good sense,up against all obstacles,hurdles a human could ever tolerate.Its about Clemens Forell(POW)making his way all through the feet to him hometown. I donna want to spoil the plot by detailing the events.

The film scores in its background & theme music,adds Chilling effect to the frozen sheet.The exotic locations is visual treat for eyes. Irina Pantaeva locks you in her charm and beauty.Even though the film ends in a positive note,you will suffer from the DISTANT WALK.This film made me look beyond the horizon Hollywood, and ignited a liking for German movies.A great movie if you have the TIME. If you like this movie you will also like THE GREAT ESCAPE(pow classic)

Faithful Adaption! A great weekend movie
20 June 2007
Hey! This is my first IMDb comment and I'm forced to review after watching this Stunner.I've been fortunate to Watch this after PASSION OF THE Christ! so as the Name Jim Caviezel popped out I was looking for the man.

The story unfolds slowly,and picks up once Edmund Dantes is prisoned. The bearded Edmund Dantes,would ve caught the hawk eyes of MEL Gibson( PASSION OF THE Christ!).The new avatar of Edmund Dantes gels with the viewers and at a certain point you feel satisfied for the sweet revenge.

The ending could have been more refined and lets the movie down! Save this, its a excellent Weekend Movie.

My ratings 9/10.
