Edward Zwick’s ‘Defiance’ Drains Strength From Powerful True Story
Submitted by BrianTT on January 16, 2009 - 9:26amCHICAGO – Ed Zwick’s “Defiance” is a dramatically inert film that misses the mark by allowing its director to play up his notable weaknesses as a filmmaker. Neither satisfying as the action-driven entertainment that Zwick likes to make nor as an emotional historical epic, “Defiance” is flat and dull, only mildly redeemed by two strong lead performances and the inherent power of its subject matter.
