Great, touching movie

Rating: 9/10 (16 February 2014)

Short & sweet: It's Realistic. It's Heart-wrenching. It's dramatic. It's honest. It connects you to the protagonist's character.
When Oskar exclaims in misery that he could've helped more, could've done more, looks at the ring on his finger, and almost falls the the ground, it makes you cry. You wish you could've yourself done more, even though you weren't there. Liam Neeson is amazing in this movie. I don't cry often. Yet, this movie takes you through such a story, and makes you imagine yourself in this time and place, wishing you could do more. I like when a drama still has enough suspense combined with plot, character development, that it pulls at you from several angles. This is well- thought out and remains at the top of my list today.
