Man of Iron

In Warsaw in 1980, the Communist Party sends disgruntled radio reporter Winkel to Gdańsk to dig up dirt on the shipyard strikers - particularly on Maciek Tomczyk, an independent labour union leader whose father was killed in the December 1970 protests. Posing as sympathetic, Winkel interviews the people surrounding Tomczyk, including his detained wife, Agnieszka.

    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.

  • Amelia Phelps
    Not my cup of tea. The storyline was predictable and the characters lacked depth.

  • Santino Lamb
    An absolute snooze fest. The pacing was terrible, and it felt like nothing ever happened.
