A Good, Compelling Movie
I first bought this movie in a VHS version. I then upgrated to a DVD edition.

The story line takes place in the early 1960's and deals with how members of the Nazi SS slipped through the Allies hands and attempts to bring them to justice after WWII. It is the story of one man's search for answers and what that search led him to.

As always, the screen writers have dievated from the novel in places, but I like the movie none the less. I view it at least once every 12 to 18 months. If you like a good drama, you'll enjoy this movie.

"I HAVE A JOB TO DO" - PETER
The Odessa File has kept with me for a long time. It is a very well made thriller and has a great twist at the end. I compare almost to the twist in the end of "The Mist". But The Odessa File has a story, a worthy story.

When I was in high school I picked up the book. The move left out some parts But I think it was needed.

Please buy this movie, it has a story. Not like the stories we see now at Movies. and Jon Voight is brilliant. Also go to your library and pick up the novel it's a good read!

I CARE!!!
I really enjoyed this movie from Perry Como's 'Christmas Dream' at the beginning to the end. The only problem I had with it was the implausible part where Jon Voight gets a grey wig and moustache and is suppose to be much older and infiltrating The Odessa. But if you suspend disbelief during this part I think you will like the movie. Very intriguing.

The Odessa File
This movie brought to life secrets about the method the SS used to escape and drop out of sight for years!It is great and the ending will suprise you. It is very well acted,and will open a lot of eyes.

Why not widescreen?
What dvd was William T. Parnell watching when he wrote his review? I bought the dvd of "The Odessa File" based on his review that it has both widescreen and fullframe versions on it. WRONG. I was very disappointed to find that I should have saved my money and stuck with my VHS tape. I love this movie but I try to make it a practice not to buy the DVD unless it comes in a widescreen version (unless, of course, the movie is so old that it wasn't made that way to begin with). Now I have wasted precious dollars that could have been used for something else (like gas money) all because of misinformation. Please, people, if you are going to write a review, get your facts straight first!!!!!
