"Riveting... a landmark film, and a milestone in the history of Germany."
- Jay Carr, AM New York
"As both historical document and human document, this epic is infinitely valuable.
Grade: A."
- Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
"The recent conference, of Holocaust deniers, anti-Semites, and other fools has made the truth necessary once again. 'Verdict' provides not only substantial pieces of testimony from survivors but an extraordinary variety of documentary evidence."
- David Denby, The New Yorker
"Shocking... establishes that the Holocaust's perpetrators were also its first deniers."
- J. Hoberman, Village Voice
"Gripping, timely … as a compilation of evidence, this is damningly complete."
- Time Out New York
" Astonishing, relentless, monumental!" - Filmcritic.com
"A compelling re-examination of the darkest moment of the 20th century, and a splendid riposte to those idiots who went to Tehran last month to tell us that history never happened." - Thew Jewish Week
"A powerful condemnation of evil, and a chilling reminder of how seemingly civilized societies can lapse into madness." - Film Threat
"The first documentary about the trials, 'Verdict on Auschwitz' is a call to vigilance."
