Based on the extraordinary true story of Operation Anthropoid, this powerful drama stars Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight) and Jamie Dornan (Fifty Shades of Grey) as two Czechoslovakian soldiers sent to Prague for a deadly mission: to kill Hitler's third in command, the main architect behind the Final Solution, Reinhard Heydrich. Outmanned and facing impossible odds, the two men lead a group of Czech rebels toward a near-impossible mission that may change the course of history forever. Also starring Toby Jones (Infamous), Anthropoid is an intense, thought-provoking thriller.

Wife just returned from a vacation to Prague. This story and the heroes depicted therein is their pride and joy. Highly recommended if you like WWII movies that give other nations' perspectives.
Otherwise the move starts a bit slow. You can tell there was a limited budget. But the acting is great, the final scenes are memorable, and you are left with an appreciation of a historical event you might not have otherwise known about. Worth a watch.
