Though surefire Oscar bait, the jury is still out on Nazi trial film 'Nuremberg'

'Nuremberg' is a new courtroom drama that revisits the historic postwar trials of Nazi leaders, focusing on the relationship between army psychiatrist Douglas Kelly and Hermann Goering. Russell Crowe stars as Goering, with Rami Malek portraying Kelly, who is tasked with monitoring the prisoners' mental fitness and unexpectedly forms a complicated bond with Goering. The film aims for a more realistic approach than previous adaptations, showing the horrors of the Holocaust and the moral complexities faced by those involved in the trials. While the movie explores important themes and features strong performances, some critics feel its characters lack depth and its emotional impact is muted, making it a respectable but not groundbreaking addition to the genre.
