Reviews for I Have Never Forgotten You
Top CriticIn this obviously loving, respectful and generous documentary, Simon Wiesenthal is presented as a lone warrior on the trail of Nazi war criminals.

Top CriticIt's an exercise in hero worship that couldn't be more justified, even though Wiesenthal would have been modestly embarrassed by the honor.
08/10/07
A tragic, inspiring film.
07/31/07
The sheer power of Simon Wiesenthal's remarkable story is what propels this heartfelt documentary tribute.
07/28/07
Top CriticPersuasive and engaging, if one-sided. It could be argued there is only one side to argue.
07/19/07
The film successfully contextualizes [Wisenthal's] legacy for a new generation.
07/05/07
Top Critic[Director] Trank is so busy fashioning [Wiesenthal] as a superhero that little light is shed on the man’s relentlessness and his stubborn determination to keep his data center in Vienna even under siege from a shabby Austrian smear campaign.
07/05/07
The film dramatically shows how many of the criminals on Wiesenthal's lists were eventually sent to jail or died from heart attacks or suicide when they were at last located.
06/29/07
... the story of Wiesenthal is forced to compete with the sappiest of manipulative musical scores, a cheesy overemphasis on the Wiesenthal Center and its director, and a Hollywood mentality ...
06/14/07
A frustratingly routine hagiography of someone most of us think we know all about, this doc respectfully summarizes the life of Nazi tracker Simon Wiesenthal without ever going too deep.
06/09/07
[A] surprisingly lively biography.
05/25/07
Through archival footage and numerous interviews, including one with Wiesenthal's daughter, a richly layered portrait emerges of a man steeled not so much for revenge as for justice.
05/24/07
Effectively sketches Simon Wiesenthal’s life, from his tenacity in surviving genocide, to his determination to find and punish ex-Nazis after World War II.
05/24/07
Top CriticSeamlessly blends old footage, new interviews and well-written narration into a straightforward but gripping chronicle balanced so far on the edges of horror and heroism that you may, just briefly, have a hard time believing it after all.
05/24/07
I Have Never Forgotten You salutes this bureaucratic detective as the man who first insisted that war crimes are sins that won't die unless they are dragged into the open.
05/23/07
Celebrity narration (by Nicole Kidman) and deft filmmaking necessarily take a backseat here to the anger, grief, and incongruous good humor of the man himself.
