Reviews

Halb Zehn has received mixed reviews from critics. While some praised the film for its raw and authentic portrayal of the human experience, others found it to be overly melodramatic and slow-paced. The Guardian gave the film a 4-star rating, stating 'Halb Zehn is a moving and introspective drama that captures the essence of human emotions with delicate precision.' In contrast, Indiewire criticized the film for its lack of originality, giving it a 2-star rating and noting, 'Halb Zehn fails to offer anything new or compelling to the genre.' Despite the divide in opinions, the performances, especially by Volker Michalowski, were universally acclaimed for their depth and sincerity.
