The breathtaking story of a man who nearly would have changed the world. In 1939, when Hitler tricked millions of people at the height of his power, radical Georg Elser — disparaged as an assassin — is one of the greatest resistance fighters.

An intriguing if ultimately unsatisfying film, this biopic of a man who almost killed Hitler at the outbreak of World War II splits the narrative between the central figure’s life leading up to his attempt and his subsequent interrogation and incarceration. The scenes set after the attempted bombing are the most successful, as the central characters struggle to answer whether this attempt was by a lone individual or supported by the Allies, but unfortunately for the audience, this is never really in doubt. Less successful are the scenes set before the attempt – the central figure’s life is largely unremarkable and the filmmakers seem more intent on depicting the gradual capitulation of those around him to the Nazis, while offering very little insight into either.

13 Minutes reminds me mostly of two things: Sideshow Bob’s “Do they give a Nobel prize for attempted chemistry?”, and Dominic Toretto’s “It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning's winning” — and, by the same token, losing is losing, whether by 13 minutes or 13 hours.
