Very important

Rating: 10/10 (17 August 2012)

This is such an important Film. A masterpiece crowned by exceptional acting from two little boys Asa Butterfield and Jack Scanlon. Being German this film hits very, very deep and brings our shameful history to painful life... again and quite rightly so. We shall never forget and we won't. Having just watched the movie, I still feel stunned, saddened and hurting from very deep within. I am glad I stayed up and watched it... and so should you. The storyline is brief and to the point, beautifully executed, intense without being artificially dramatic. It does not need to. The story itself is very believable, which makes it even more important to watch as it exposes the madness of Hitler and the Nazi regime through the innocent eyes of a little boy.
