Life is beautfiul without retarded games that powerful lunatics force us to play.

Rating: 6/10 (18 February 1999)

I dislike everything in this movie. I hate the story! Some game! As if survival were not difficult enought without the extra added torture that those who command us impose. Those characters should not have had to use up their lives playing that retarded game. Mental patients belong in asylums, not in power. I guess as a homage to good fathers, the movie is somewhat more tolerable. Many children of families with limited means grow up thinking that they are first class citizens thanks to protective fathers that sacrifice to give them that impression. But why should dad have to sacrifice so much?
It's a silly movie. I guess they are running out of angles to examine the holocaust from. I know eventually this will happen. It has to.
The movie itself is a competent offering. I thought the first ten, fifteen minutes were intolerably boring. It becomes more entertaining with the visually stunning party and street scenes. It certainly doesn't offer much hope for the Guidos of this world. I don't see any reason to nominate this film for Best Picture.
