It always feels a little awkward and a little jumpy, but the stories themselves are fascinating.

Even though the outcome for the four survivors is evident in their presence as elderly interviewees, the narrative threads remain consistently compelling as we watch the characters drift imperceptibly throughout the city.

[W]hile the back-and-forth structure hurts the storytelling, the tale itself remains one of vital importance.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 8, 2019

The story's interesting enough given the scenes on-set of the making of Cabaret, but the eventual untangling and healing of their relationship, the rarified air of elite Broadway, and stellar performances by Rockwell and Williams make it sing.

The Invisibles, about humans as living ghosts, needs to be seen, and believed.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 4, 2019

Neither version of director Claus Räfle's hybrid documentary-drama has the depth to achieve much impact.

There's an interesting idea at the heart of The Invisibles, but the way it's constructed makes it hard to see.

| Mar 29, 2019

The Invisibles, sadly, comes across as extremely didactic, as if it is inherently unsure of why so much of the movie is reenacted by professional actors.

"[I]n telling four stories twice, this film is only half good."

Adds yet another intriguing chapter to the ongoing investigation of World War II.

| Original Score: B+ | Mar 21, 2019

'The Invisibles' is a movie filled with compassion and bravery. We are left admiring the wherewithal of four brave young people who defied the odds and lived, as well as the generosity of friends, family and strangers who helped them.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Mar 8, 2019

The built-in suspense and poignancy is compromised by an awkward structure that tries to juggle too many disparate narrative elements.

The Invisibles tackles an intriguing subject but doesn't dig as deeply as it might have.

The Invisibles, then, works on multiple levels: as a historical document, as thrilling cinema, and as satisfying drama.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Mar 7, 2019

Shifting readily between fiction and non-fiction gives us the best of both worlds because the proof of what we've seen arrives directly after seeing it.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 3, 2019

"The Invisibles" favors quantity of remembrance over quality of any one experience. It's worth attending to, obviously, even if the movie somehow manages to do less with more.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 20, 2019

Räfle chose to mix two styles of filmmaking-straight-up talking heads interviews with the survivors, and dramatic re-enactments of their stories-in a way so that is thuddingly repetitive rather than enriching...

| Original Score: 5/10 | Feb 15, 2019

This film's mix of actual women from the streets with a handful of actresses working in France is actually quite funny.

An unfamiliar part of a story you thought you knew all about, and a must-see.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Feb 2, 2019

Following four survivors, "The Invisibles" is part documentary and part feature film. For most of the movie, it's a good thing.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 31, 2019
