Highly recommended! Best movie I've seen in years! It had good action, romance, drama. You know a movie is very good when "Rotten Tomatoes" movie review website audience score is 4.2 out of 5 stars with 1,066 reviews. Newsweek review stated: "An important movie everyone should see".

This movie is terrible. The horror of holodomor is not shown objectively and the sole purpose of Stalin's regime appears to be suppress Ukraine's desire for independence. Unfortunately for the movie, it was an issue of class rather than nationality. Stalin's regime left a lot of examples of successfully destroying cultures it did not like. Read the stories of Russian Germans, Koreans or Tatars. It killed or relocated anyone who did not agree or could resist. In Soviet Union, individual farmers were considered dangerous and Ukrainian strong agricultural roots were something Stalin was eager to get rid of by starving millions of innocent people to death.

Very powerful, moving movie. The atrocities that were depicted were difficult at times to watch but needed to be seen. The mass genocide that transpired in 1932-1933 was a horrific act by the Soviets against the Ukrainian people.

This story needed to be told. The Bolsheviks did mercilessly starve and execute thousands of Ukrainians under Lenin and then with a greater vengeance under Stalin but this movie loses its focuses by becoming a love story with excessive special effects and violence. The director and writers should have spent some time studying the artistic elements of "Schindler's List" before they made this film. The story is sad and shocking which it should be, but the acting and the script were weak and undermined the message of the film. I wanted to give this film a better rating but it really did seem to be amateurish. The young actors were not competent.

Hugely informative about this historical event that did not receive world wide attention for the last 80 or so years. It was sheltered from the international press. Reminds me of the movie REDS where a journalist was able to get into Russia and Ukraine but was not able to publish any of what she experienced there. Blindly, pro-communism was popular at the time.

Very well done movie! At times disturbing, however this was what they endured.Last night I took my father (93) and his friend (95). They both survived this tragedy in Ukraine. One of their many comments was that not only food was withheld from them, but also livestock and horses were taken.

Excellent! This film finally depicts the horrors of this era that connect to the horrors Ukraine experiences today. Bitter Harvest is a movie no one will ever forget. It is time for the world to understand the times of the Holodomor. A must see for all.

User review rating: 5 February 26, 2017

A live story spun around the great Soviet crime of the holodomor. The intentional ruthless starvation of millions of Ukrainians for the sole purpose of subjugating a nation to the will of Stalin's communism . A must see movie.

Great eye opener!The World should now the truth about the past that the tragedy would never happen in the future!

User review rating: 5 February 23, 2017

For a Hollywood epic dramatization, the movie's backdrop depicts a tragic period of history with good accuracy. The story is moving and well told and provides a subtext for today's current events.
