This is a very nice film about a lovely story. It deals with Nazis, the Jewish people, art ownership and the intertwining stories that go with all of those topics, and more.
I don't think I've seen a Helen Mirren performance that was a disappointment and this one continues her screen dominance. In watching it again, I checked to see if she was superior in each of her scenes, and she was. Ryan Reynolds plays his usual earnest self. Daniel Bruhl, who first came to my attention in Joyeux Noel, also turns in a solid performance.
At one hour and 50 minutes it felt too long both times I saw it. But it is lovely to watch, my rating of 3 Stars holds up, and I recommend it.
