The Man with the Iron Heart's reviews
Media reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
"A visually impressive Hollywood calling card for Jimenez, who almost manages to overcome the material?s structural weaknesses with impressive directorial verve"
El País
"In spite of its direction in debt to the "malick style" [...] that first half manages to catch the ostentation of the nazi paraphernalia [...]. However, when it comes to the second [...], it turns into a conventional war film."
Cinemanía
Thanks are due to Cédric Jiménez, stylish director of 'La French'. He has tried to present Reinhard Heydrich in another way, the nazi jerarca, Checoslovaquia's Reichsprotektor.
Fotogramas
'The Man with the Iron Heart' recovers this crucial historical event from a double perspective: that of the two idealistic young men who can give their lives to put an end to barbarism and that of the monster itself.
ABC
"The film finds Heydrich, digs deeply inside his sordid interior, but before it gets to the end, it steps, let's say, «to the enemy's side»."
El Mundo
"It is a little confusing because of its excessive ambition to tell the events from different perspectives"
El Periódico
"Halfway between biopic and thriller, this adaptation from Laurent Binet's best-seller about general Reinhard Heydrich appears inconsistent and academic."
