Slant Magazine
Director Sean Ellis's film offers a potent examination of the moral rectitude of resistance.

One of the best pictures of the year and the best movie of the summer.

If Ellis and co-screenwriter Anthony Frewin’s attention to historical detail hinders Anthropoid initially, it breathes life into what turns into an action packed and inherently cinematic second half.
70
It is a testimony to the film’s careful construction and honest intentions that you have become so engaged in the fate of the characters.

Ellis and editor Richard Mettler craft an agonizing and unforgettable finale; if their sense of pacing had been as sharp throughout, “Anthropoid” might have fulfilled its potential.
