IMDb 6.0 Metacritic 25

The Passage has an intriguing WW2 premise with cat-and-mouse tension across the Pyrenees, but the critical consensus is brutal—Metacritic's 25 score and IMDb's 6.0 suggest the execution falls flat. Skip it tonight unless you're a completionist for every obscure war thriller.

Plot

During WW 2, a Basque shepherd is approached by the underground, who wants him to lead a scientist and his family across the Pyrenees. While being pursued by a sadistic German.
