Reviews:

“Schlöndorff’s best film since his classic ‘The Tin Drum.’”
-Jack Mathews, NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

“Thalbach is a feisty delight.”
-V.A. Mussetto, NEW YORK POST

“Ms. Thalback is a lively and forceful screen presence.”
-A. O. Scott, THE NEW YORK TIMES

“A deeply affecting drama that pays tribute to a woman who's little known outside of Poland.”
-Maitland McDonough, TVGUIDE ONLINE

“Strike is a charming film with a big heart. Katharina Thalbach brings heart, wit and beautiful blue eyes to the role of Agnieszka.”
-Nicole Ankowski, NERVE.COM

“An impressive film about the birth of Poland's Solidarity movement from master German filmmaker Volker Schlöndorff.”
-Andrew O’Hehir, SALON.COM

"I’m sort of in love with Agnieszka, the heroine of Strike: As conceived by director Volker Schlöndorff (The Tin Drum) and played by the superb German actress Katharina Thalbach, she’s a tiny, bug-eyed bundle of energy who single-handedly brings down the Polish government, armed with nothing but humble proletarian determination."
-Julia Wallace, THE VILLAGE VOICE/LA WEEKLY
