Film Comment
Rating: 4/5 --
Tired of gay rights movies and Holocaust flicks? This is both, but it still enthralls.
New Times
Rating: C+ --
The screen version of Sherman's play about homosexuals in Nazi Germany shows that tyro director Mathias doesn't know much about film for his erratic approach and inconsistent style bring out the play's weaknesses, though the acting is good.
Variety
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Among notable players, Ian McKellen from the original play 19 years ago and Mick Jagger, who plays Berlin's reigning drag queen.

After a series a constitution-breaking incidents, his love for a fellow male prisoner brings him to admit his true nature. Features Mick Jagger in a brief role as a drag queen.
