Schindler's List is a beautiful drama and one of the greatest movies ever made

Rating: 4/10 (6 February 2013)

Schindler's List is really Spielberg's first movie that deals in the genre of Drama. Up until then, he had done the Indiana Jones trilogy, ET, Jurassic Park and so on.
Schindler's List is simply the tale of a wealthy German businessman named Oskar Schindler who begins to save the lives of Jews as World War II continues. The premise to the movie is that simple and so, its wonderful The pacing of the movie can be a little slow and I did find myself bored at the start of the movie. The movie does feel long, clocking in at over 3 hours long. Some parts of the film seem quicker and better than others but by the end of the film, everything turns out well.
The acting by Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley and Ralph Fiennes is just brilliant. The music in the movie is brilliant, nothing less than John Williams' expected standard and the directing and writing of the film is superb.
The characters in the movie are relatively good though I feel some characters could be fleshed out more The movie, however, is very emotional in the last half hour which really changed the movie. Had it not been for the way the last 30 minutes was, I would've probably given this a 7.
Schindler's List is a well told emotional drama of Oskar Schindler, with brilliant acting and directing, solid writing and superb music as well as good characters. Do I think its one of the best? No, not really but I certainly think this is a very good movie. Definitely a movie that is worth to see for any movie fan
