Reaction: These historical films are always lucky when they make money, tending to be very hit or miss at the box office. This one just happened to be a bit of a miss in theaters.

"La Resistance really suffers any time Gary Oldman is away from the screen. The cast of the French Resistance just don't bring enough life to the story  to make you care too much about their plight, especially since Oldman's General Hegenhauser is far and away the most interesting character in the film." - David Boorman, Film Threat


"It follows its over-played genre a bit too closely, but there is enough talent on display to keep things interesting and worth the watch." - Glenn Howard, Total Film


"The film is a peculiar one in that it depicts the failed efforts of the French Resistance movement. This fresh point of view helps this film stand out a bit in a tired genre." - Rob Morse, ScreenRant
