Movies like this should not see daylight
uplink-2084212 November 2022
Few words are by far not enough to describe the worthlessness of this flick, which was brought to this world by the FTV owner Adam Lisowski, who is notoriously known by bringing extraordinary worthless, shallow and cheap creations to this world. For some reason, though, he thinks that he has a vision, but the results of his attempts to create something innovative and meaningful speak for themselves.

Bottom line - this abomination does not worth a second of your life, unless you study cinematography and need an example of how movies shouldn't be made. Please don't be mislead by the relatively high score - most of the voters didn't actually see this.. thing, they just here to please the creator.

How is Anthony Hickox still getting funding
Pzachlen27 April 2021
I was fortunate or unfortunate to have worked with this director on many of his earlier attempts at directing. Hickox made his career on the names of his parents work in the industry. However Anthony is a talentless director which for some reason he is till able to command millions to make films, none of which are remotely any good. That is not to say that I do like him as a person , but as a film maker he needs to find something else to do with his life.

Tarantino-style war film
petedrisc00725 November 2015
Exodus to Shanghai is one of those stories about a real hero of the atrocities of war. It tells the stories of a man who is focused on freeing people from war.

The film is similar in ways to Tarantino-style films which short catchy scenes that are at times not in chronological order thus having the audience engaged from the very beginning saying "Ok well what happened to lead to that?"

There is a lot of comedy in this film although it never loses its dramatic feel.

David Lipper as Kurt shows off his comic timing as well as his outstanding acting ability.

The sets and art direction on this film give a real lively feel to it

Exodus to Shanghai mood

After attending the premiere screening of Exodus to Shanghai at the Chinese Theater in L.A. I am overcome with emotions and happiness. From the first frame on wards the film captivates the viewer! I laughed at the jokes, cried at the hard times and cheered as the heroes beat up the Nazis! The film provides a new perspective on what happened back then! It shows the Jews in a strong light and as courageous standing up for what is right! Fantastic film and great actors, director and producer! I recommend it for everyone who loves action, love, drama and documentary! Exodus to Shanghai left me with deep insights for which I am grateful.

Supermodels turned great actors!
vic-1535417 December 2015
After seeing Exodus to Shanghai behind the scenes I am super excited to see the full movie! I was really surprised how well the supermodels completely transformed themselves to play their respective characters perfectly! Yaara I know from the covers of magazines and am always inspired by her beauty. I also always followed Jahni on YouTube and am really excited that she blossomed so well in her emotional role. Alexandre really seems to shine in his role as Bruce and I cannot wait to see his martial art skills in full. I really fell for the love story and cannot wait to see how their romance blossoms on the big screen! Go Exodus to Shanghai!
