Editorial Reviews:
An original TV dramatization of one of the most monstrous crimes in world history – the slaughter of 6 million Jews by the Nazis. Dramatically and definitively, the story covers an entire decade, the eventful years from 1935 to 1945. HOLOCAUST focuses on the tragedy and triumph of a single family – the Weiss family. Their story is told in counter-poise to that of another fictional family, that of Erik Dorf, who portrays a Nazi aide to Germany’s infamous Heydrich. Starring a brilliant international cast and filmed on location in Berlin and Vienna.

Summary: Excellent
Comment: The Holocaust was a good documentary. The movie gives you a lot of background on the Jewish problem. The Germans almost annihilated the Jews and this movie shows how they did it. I would recommend this movie to anybody. Frank Lozano

Summary: Hollywood Movie
Comment: As usual, this is a Hollywood treatment of the Holocaust. Well know actors, some speaking with British accents and some in American English. Some Nazis (actors) make an attempt to use a German accent with English. The plot is well know, the Holocaust is well documented. But using Hollywood stars to depict the Holocaust is a big mistake. The film lacks authenticity. I would have preferred subtitles. The direction is sloppy, and again lacks conviction. This film has several DVD's and I am struggling into the third disk. I doubt I'll reach the end.
I give it two stars because Hollywood is lousy at making authentic films about the Holocaust.

Summary: Touching movie from all sides.
Comment: I have seen many movies about the holocaust and this one has to be the best one by far. This movie gives you a powerful story of a jewish doctor the changes he and his family endured as Hitler came into power. The movie follows different members of his family into ghettos, fighting with the partisans, and into the camps.

You also are given a view from a high ranking Nazi official who started out a an ordinary attorney needing work after the downfall of the economy in Gemany after World War I. Officer Dorf finds himself rising in the ranks of a regime that he does not necessarily understand or always agree with, but finds that the power and influence of being a Nazi soldier, as so many others, out weighed their compassion for the human race.

This movie is graphic and disturbing, but gives the most accurate representation of the Holocast of any movie I have seen. And I must say, Meryl Streep is phenomenal...

Summary: Poor representation of a horrific event
Comment: This movie tells a truly terrible story but watching it doesn't impart the severity of it. The people appeared to be clean shaven, wore clean clothes and never looked like they had missed a meal. The depiction of the barracks in the camps appeared to be clean and spacious. It didn't leave the feeling that this was a truly terrible place to be, more of a summer camp type environment. Perhaps it was the best production that they could do 30 years ago but there are more realistic historicals available today that give a more accurate idea of what the life was really like. (Uprising By Leelee Sobieski and others). If you are going to tell the story, it should be in a way that makes every listener realize the terrible nature of what happened. This movie was pleasant to watch and it should not be, it seem to be suger coated to me.

Summary: Wonderful Movie
Comment: I saw this movie 30 years ago, I have always remembered it and the impact it had on me. I now have young grandchildren and want to share this with them. I have been hunting for this movie for months and am delighed to have found it. This is probably the best movie to show what a typical family in Germany went thru. It definatley stayed in my mind and heart for 30 years.
Thank You for having it for us.
