| User ReviewTiberio SMorituri is an amazing film. It is about a war pacifist is blackmailed to pose as an SS officer. Marlon Brando and Yul Brynner give excellent performances. The screenplay is well written. Bernhard Wicki did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the action and drama. Morituri is a must see. |
| User ReviewPeter MGreat suspense film with thrilling subtext and twists. Interesting camera work such as when Brando (Kyle) starts in the foreground early in a shot and arrives in the background of the same shot to show the passage of time. A very worthy actor's duel between Marlon Brando and Yul Brynner! |
| User ReviewJosh MGreat Movie and great performances by Both Brando and Brynner, so underrated !! |
| User ReviewMike TAn underrated gem in Brando's career that presents an astute approach to character dynamics and suspense. Directed and photographed with expertise, this is a top-notch espionage thriller that engages from its first scene until the grim conclusion. Marlon Brando's understated performance is also immensely underappreciated, and Yul Brynner does a great job too. |
| User ReviewPrivate UFor some reason, no one knows about this movie; nonetheless, it's epic. |
| User ReviewAngela GOne of Brando's more underrated films. |
