Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It's very lively
Review: The actors were very credible, you can imagine better the poverty of the people there. It's very lively with the landscape. But there's one thing we would like to know: the end; because it is very unclear, too open. It's the perfect film to make people identifying themselves with the actors.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: endearing
Review: This is a film that speaks of the heart. However, this is not a Hollywood film, and so it deals quite realistically with broken hearts and betrayed love. I'd like to say more, but I can't without giving away the superb ending. Also has a pretty moving soundtrack.

Lots of symbolism on this film- My favorite is the only road leading out of town with the gate. The "road" is desert sand, the rest of the area is desert sand (no trees or anything), but everyone still stops for the gate to be raised before proceeding. Just go around it!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The Swiss Review
Review: We find that this film isn't very good. We find it not interesting. The story is very complicated if you haven't read the book. To us the plot is too far away from Dürrenmatt's play. We can't compare the actors from the book with the actors from the film, because we had some problems identifying the people. (e.g. Linguère Ramatou = Claire Zachanassian) Something was good: the story was set in the nature. We recommend to read the book first and then watch the film.
