The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Wow, just wow! The film's visuals are absolutely stunning! This is a good old-fashioned love story with a very strong vengeance element, as well, amidst the horrors of war. Unlike most war films, though, this one does not concentrate on war gore, but there are quite a few disturbing scenes that will make you shudder. The film has great characters with excellent character development, and the acting was great, too. At times the film's unpredictability will make you jolt in your seat. Jozef Pawlowski makes a credible, determined hero with vengeance burning in his heart. This incredible production is easily one of my favorite war films, if not my favorite. The music was awesome.

As you probably know, I am from Poland and this is the film about one of the most important historical events of my country, the brutal reality of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising. If you would like to learn some more facts about it, uncle google and aunt wiki are more than happy to help you out :) . Let's focus on the film! Mind that, I don't like Polish films... Even though I have watched some amazing ones [ Komornik (2005), Symetria (2003) ] I am really not fond of them.2 minutes - of advertising the sponsors... I am already annoyed 9 minutes - something fishy is going on here... The acting feels good, music is nice and I am genuinely interested from the very first few minutes 23 minutes - LOL! Fallout music!!! ( I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire - The Ink Spots ), incredible! 27 minutes - damn... so much feels and drama, and it is only the beginning 31 minutes - if this is how it really looked like, I mean the organization, I feel bad for those damn fools...32 minutes - bad CGI effects... but I forgive them, it's Poland, we have to cut some corners. They have just started the uprising, some random guy wants to join them and the commander says that the uprising is almost over... WTF?! 35 minutes - so far, it looks like some random people were bored and wanted some action... if this is what really happened (which I doubt), those poor bastards deserved to die for being plain stupid...40 minutes - WTF!?!?!?!? Did the director just put some random kiss scene in a middle of a gunfight with some cartoon effects going on!? I am speechless...48 minutes - holy S... I am glad that the director is not saving actors from dying, kudos for that 56 minutes - blood rain and body parts dropping from the sky after some big ass explosion, this film has it! (it can't be real, can it? It looked cool as hell though). After few minutes of research I have found that it was booby-trapped tank. You can read more about it here: http://www.warsawuprising.com/paper/dpa_sibierski.htm 1h 28minutes - so far so good, but from time to time the director has implemented some weird s..t. I have no idea why did he do that... it feels retarded and out of place... WTF... I can't believe he actually used some dub step music... It stinks with amateurism 1h 39minutes - the acting is really damn good, that's for sure! 1h 41minutes - bloody action is good tooDefinitely a solid film, if you like military films, there is no option you will not like this one! I would definitely see another ww2 film from Jan Komasa.tgchan's rating: 7.5 /10

WARSAW 44 makes no apologies, asks for no forgiveness, it's a no holds barred assault on the senses. Komasa doesn't care if he offends, if he steps all over stereotypes and clichés, this is film making at it purest. It's great to see a film maker whose work clearly isn't interfeared with by the powers that be. I went along to the movies not really wanting to see this movie, thinking it was a 'girly' movie, one which had more technical skill rather than a storyline. I was surprised more than anything I could imagine.I have seen a lot of movies in my time, but this movie just took me by storm. Its uniqueness, ironically enough because it was based on a real life situation was a refreshing change from the usual Hollywood blockbuster. This movie provided a brilliant (pardon the pun) insight into how people especially those young ones cope with a tragic trauma that is war in this case.Either way it's a roller coaster and one not to be missed! A war film hasn't been done like this before. Maybe it could refer at times to Inglorious Basterds but WARSAW 44 is much more darker and meaningful in tone. Certainly if you're not a fan of Tarantino's style, this may be bit harder to understand, but never-the-less, it is a film which simply has to be seen. No self respecting film fan should miss this. And the performance of young actors... Oscar don't you dare ignore him!!

I'm confused reading reviews for this movie (mostly 10/10) and current rating on IMDb (7,3)... ...this movie is very, very bad. scenario and characters are weakest parts of it - scenario is full of stupid mistakes and inconsistencies, and behavior of the characters devoid of any sense (especially the main love triangle). Also, a lot of stereotypical scenes to underline the brutality of 'the bad guys'. Besides, good camera work and scenography - but it is not enough to waste your time on this creation, which resembles country fair. Generally, Komasa is not so bad director, as he showed in this work - so, what's happen? Did big money take their course?
