This movie contains some emotional things, maybe you would find hyperbole. Because of you can feel who produce use your feel about a kid at the end of film, like I feel. But generally theme was good. Yes, we know there are many 2nd war scenarios and sometimes they are copy of each of them. But this movie wasn't without end. It has extremely original story. Yes I didn't like end, but it is best appropriate end for this movie. Because story has to be end stunning as possible as.
Everything about this movie is bad. The acting is bad. The plot is bad. Except for like one or two things nothing is historically accurate. The script is terrible. Its boring. The cinematography is passable. All the characters act like total idiots. No I do not recommend this dumpster fire.
During WWⅡ, Bruno from a wealthy family, whose father is a German soldier, moves to the countryside in Germany where a concentration camp for Jews is back yard to his house. When exploring around his house secretly, he meets a boy dressed in a striped pajama, Shmuel. They are good on terms little by little... and they attempt to conduct an irreversible matter. One thing that I am relieved is that not everyone in Germany agrees with taking part in the WWⅡ, even the top military's relatives as well. Also, it proves that children don't care about their race and background. This needs to be taught to adult at once seriously. This film is one of the best and touching ones that I have ever seen before in regard to WWⅡ. You'll never expect the ending literally and the story goes on making us breathless all the time. I would like people in the world to watch this and this will be helpful to change a way of thinking concerning war and discrimination.
A classic subject and an elaborated time period. All people have something they have heard/ watched about 2nd World War and the applications of the Nazi Germany. This time it was illuminated for both aspects, neither for the German soldiers nor the Jewish people back then only. Cast choice is definitely perfect and indeed reflects the national appearance of the people. The only part I didn't enjoy was that how people didn't speak German in the movie. It's really OK for a quality audience to watch a subtitled movie, I guess and thus national differences and the realistic atmosphere is conserved. Especially German people shouldn't have a British accent, NO. It really spoils the realistic atmosphere. Other than that the tragedy of the movie, the annihilation of childhoods and a dictator's pressure on people was shown very adequately.
