Review of The Exception (2017) by Ginak — 21 Jun 2017

Was this meant to be a good film or a true depiction of history? Would Christopher Plummer have taken his role if it had portrayed the real “Kaiser Bill”? Probably not. So I guess what the film was about was “exceptions,” which was a term used many times throughout the film.

I enjoyed the film since it was well-directed and had many attractive and skillful actors. And I won’t ruin it for you by telling you what the exceptions are. As long as you are not bothered by seeing yet another film about the Third Reich and one that is not especially original or accurate, you will enjoy this film.

It’s far better than brainless action film to many of us on a hot summer day.
