A beautifully shown story of a mans mission to preserve human life.

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2011)

This film, for lack of better words, is breathtakingly amazing. To film it in black and white was sheer genius. This most definitely is Liam Neeson at his best and as many people have said, I find it absolutely hard to believe he did not win an Oscar for best actor. Certain scenes from this film, for instance the liquidization of the Jewish ghettos is hard viewing but completely spell-bounding at the same time. Watching this film for the first time will leave you in many ways; shocked, chocked up, amazed, saddened and hopeful, (I say hopeful because this story proves that people like Schindler did have a heart and not every German or even Nazi during the Second world war was a callous heartless murderer) if not all of the above. This is worth watching 100%, if not, re-watching quite a few times, as it is a compelling, heartfelt story.
