Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Insanely entertaining -- and often just plain insane -- World War II melodrama. You may hate yourself in the morning, but you'll have to admit Verhoeven gives you a lot of bang for your buck.
– Eleanor Ringel Gillespie,

rotten:
The happy ending demands that [Verhoeven's] return-journey film -- Black Book -- be a rousing artistic triumph. It isn't. Too many of his lazy Hollywood habits have followed him home.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,
27 Apr 2007
rotten:
Paul Verhoeven's WWII drama stars the lovely Dutch actress Carice van Houten as a Jewish Resistance worker, and costars her breasts. All three deserve awards consideration.
– Jonathan F. Richards,

fresh:
Verhoeven never loses sight of the larger message -- that in those evil times, ordinary people were forced to do extraordinary, and even awful, things just to live long enough to tell their tale.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,
4 May 2007
fresh:
A hard-core war film with raw violence, intense action, graphic sexuality and a twisting plot that offers a series of surprises.
