3 Seasons in Hell (Czech: 3 sezóny v pekle) is a 2009 Czech film directed by Tomáš Mašín. Set during the Soviet Union's takeover of Czechoslovakia in 1948, it is based on memoirs by Egon Bondy.
Ray Bennett praised the performances of Krystof Hadek and Karolina Gruszka, saying that although initially shallow and inconsequential the viewer came to feel deeply involved in them. Variety praised the cinematography and production design while finding the lead character annoying and unsympathetic. What Culture found it balanced and interesting despite flaws, giving it 3/5.
