10 stars - no doubt!

Rating: 10/10 (30 July 2006)

This is simply one of the best movies I have ever seen. The screenplay and direction are just perfect. The way the movie starts off with silly comedic and romantic situations really are very important in explaining the character of Guido. So, if you're not impressed in the first 30 minutes, wait up, keep watching. You'd have had a pleasant surprise by the time the movie finishes. Benigni has ensured that he does not show the gory gory images of holocaust. Also because this movie is not about the holocaust but only a simple romantic story with hope and optimism. This movie is a great family entertainer that will touch everybody's heart. 10 stars - no doubt!
