It's not Zhivago. The big picture is drawn a little too hastily for that. But it is a rousing tale with political pertinence, given the current state of relations between Russia and the Ukraine.

Almost inevitably, approaching the Holodomor via a standard-length dramatic feature risks reducing the cataclysm's enormity to a trivializing size and emotional impact.
March 01, 2017
In reality, more than seven million people likely died on Stalin's orders. (The final numbers remain unknown.) Don't they deserve a better epitaph than this?
February 23, 2017
Given the scope of the early-1930s atrocity, the most shocking thing about director George Mendeluk's new dramatization is how utterly devoid of emotional impact it is.
March 02, 2017
It seems like Mendeluk and his writer Richard Bachynsky Hoover were striving for something sweeping and old-fashioned, but the end result is claustrophobic and comically out-of-touch.
March 23, 2017
The film's use of English-speaking actors, digital cinematography, and simple sets gives it all a cheap, made-for-cable movie feel.
March 03, 2017
This is a story of villainous oppression, unfortunately told with oppressive earnestness.
February 23, 2017
While "Bitter Harvest" will undoubtedly serve to raise awareness, there can be no doubt that the events deserve a more compelling and responsible treatment than this.
March 02, 2017
The story of the Holodomor is an important one, but Bitter Harvest plasters over the dark history with all manner of movie shortcuts.
February 24, 2017
This is a shameful piece of history that deserves a far better film.
March 07, 2017
Disappointing drama shows brutal historical violence.
February 23, 2017
The millions who died during this real-life tragedy deserve a stronger memorial than this one.
