Another phantasmagorical tale of life among the Nazis, is upon us. This one works much better.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
It's entertainment that never lets us off the hook.
Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
More imaginative and responsible than the somewhat similar "Life Is Beautiful."
Washington Post by Desson Thomson
Less-than-scintillating spin on "Life Is Beautiful."
Every bit as reverent as "Schindler's List," and no less successful.
Dallas Observer by Jean Oppenheimer
Far superior to either "Life Is Beautiful" or "Jakob the Liar."
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
A tragicomic Holocaust fable that's by turns silly, triumphant and achingly sad.
Austin Chronicle by Marc Savlov
Much of the film is frankly ludicrous, but that does little to dispel its overall power and passion.
San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle
A merry, wistful, tear-and-a-smile romp about the Holocaust, of all things.
The New York Times by Stephen Holden
What saves Train of Life from sinking into sudsy Holocaust kitsch is its sustained comic buoyancy.
