While it's a film too steeped in actual tragedy to describe as 'entertainment', it's engrossing, thought-provoking, and well worth your time.

It's likely only a filmmaker of Greengrass' experience and stature could have gotten it made at all, let alone so successfully.

Greengrass has once again composed a gripping, sometimes unbearably stressful re-creation of horror, so true to life that the "why" of it all is just as inscrutable as life itself.

If Anders Behring Breivik represents today's West at its self-devouring worst, the movie wants us to see that Viljar's endurance offers a reason for hope.

Greengrass previously excelled at depicting events that overwhelmed individuals; in "22 July," he demonstrates how one deluded zealot can shake an entire country.
