Critic Reviews of "The Lives of Others"
Chicago Sun-TimesSeptember 21, 2007The Lives of Others is a powerful but quiet film, constructed of hidden thoughts and secret desires.
Orlando SentinelMarch 16, 2007Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck's film is a melodrama in a minor key, quietly affecting, quietly chilling, quietly quiet. It captures the drab architecture of totalitarianism, the soul-dead buildings of a soul-dead state.
Houston ChronicleMarch 02, 2007Its suspense builds on the fragile and nuanced business of emotional rebirth.
Detroit NewsMarch 02, 2007A political thriller that's consistently as inventive as it is creepy.
Detroit Free PressMarch 02, 2007Few would deny that The Lives of Others is true to its self, and in its depiction of human nature -- and human spirit.
Daily Telegraph (UK)September 26, 2014Reopens our eyes to the cruelties and soul assassinations that were carried out daily in the name of state socialism.
LarsenOnFilmAugust 05, 2011The scope is especially impressive given that the movie is about a society obsessively focused on the tiniest of details.
Suite101.comSeptember 19, 2010Activism proves tough on people who've thrived at their political patrons' blessings, and one character cruelly chooses a path of least resistance when the chips are down. A cataclysmic conclusion depicts political clamps on expression and emotion.
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. PaulAugust 24, 2009If the filmmaker commits a crime, it's in pushing the [Stasi] character's rehabilitation slightly too far--about as much as the weight of a teardrop.
Paste MagazineJune 09, 2008Although Henckel von Donnersmarck has a number of genuinely good ideas ... the film is marred by redundancy, indecision and clumsiness.
