[15 January 2010]

There are great movies and there are others which can only leave you at the edge of your sit throughout the show. Iron cross is the latter. It captures your attention and at the end throws a big curve ball! Not to mention the captivating performance by the late Oscar nominated Roy Scheider. He plays a role that leaves you at the edge of your sit and thirsty for more. The soundtrack of the movie is phenomenal as well! Overall, it is a must see thriller that is full of substance and surprises! The story line is as follows: Joseph, a retired New York police officer, played by the late Roy Scheider, travels to Nuremberg to visit his son Ronnie years after turning his back on him for rejecting a promising career in the NYPD and marrying a local artist, Anna. No sooner does Joseph attempt to heal the rift with Ronnie, when he swears that living in the apartment above, under the false name of Shrager, is the now aging SS Commander who murdered his entire family in a Polish forest during WW2.
