Critics consensus

“Flawed yet honorable, Resistance pushes past uneven performances and execution to pay sincere tribute to its real-life protagonist.”

RTIndependent (UK)Dec 10, 2020

The film is lazily manipulative here, as the sounds of an angelic children's choir are contrasted with scenes of brutal executions.

Eisenberg simply doesn't convince as Marceau for a moment...

RTIrish TimesJun 28, 2020

This was a film worth making and its mere existence does honour to an extraordinary life. We're better with it than without it.

Resistance never gets overwhelmed by sentiment in the way Life is Beautiful did; it’s a tough history lesson that delivers an inspiring true story that doesn’t quite conform to traditional beats...
