    Washington Post | Desson Thomson

    The movie's still a solid "B," a workmanlike drama. Read full review

    Variety | David Rooney

    Provides powerful drama thanks to its trenchant core story and harrowing re-creation of the brutal chaos of war. Read full review

  • 67
    Entertainment Weekly | Owen Gleiberman

    A chintzy melodrama gussied up as hair-trigger combat ''reality,'' but there's no denying the vividness with which the French cowriter-director Elie Chouraqui has visualized the chaos of Croatia. Read full review

    Chicago Sun-Times | Roger Ebert

    San Francisco Chronicle | Edward Guthmann

    Melodramatic take on love and war. Read full review

    Washington Post | Stephen Hunter

    It's part travelogue in Hell, part ineffectual weepie. Read full review

    Los Angeles Times | Kevin Thomas

    Leaves us with a heightened appreciation of the bold and personal films made by a number of filmmakers of the former Yugoslavia. Read full review

  • 20
    The New York Times | A.O. Scott

    A stupefying mix of action, politics and melodrama. Read full review
