Entertainment Reviews:
It is brutal, relentless, nihilistic, violent, terrifying, relentless, psychopathic, and yet it is so powerful, so explosively febrile, it compels you to watch and keep watching.

The Spectator
4 stars out of 5 -- [A] must-see....The action sequences are vivid and explicit, without seeming sensationalistic.
Box Office
Rating: 4.5/5 --
It doggedly refuses easy ways out, and it has the guts, brains and critical eye to plumb the roots of terror and its bloody consequences.
Dallas Morning News
Rating: 3/4 --
It'd be nice to see an American filmmaker commit a similar reckoning with the Watts riots, the Weather Underground, or the Black Power movement, not simply resort to cant and kitsch but to really interpret those moments.

Boston Globe
Rating: B --
There are some literally killer performances here, most notably Johanna Wokalek as Gudrun.

Detroit News
[A] fascinating hybrid of a film....BAADER MEINHOF does capture the sometimes delusional passion of the times...
Los Angeles Times
In the end, however expansive, action-packed and powerfully shot The Baader-Meinhof Complex undoubtedly is, it remains a disturbing hybrid that leaves the viewer jaded, bizarrely perplex and ultimately unsatisfied.

Product Description:
Director Uli Edel assembles an impressive cast--including Moritz Bleibtreu, Martina Gedeck, and Bruno Ganz--for this adaptation of Stefan Aust's nonfiction book. In Berlin in 1967, a horrific riot inspires a woman named Ulrike Meinhof to join forces with Andreas Baader to battle their government. The pair moves from activism into terrorism, as they lead the group known as the Red Army Faction, aka the Baader-Meinhof Group.
