Wonderful Movie

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2016)

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is a film worth the time and heartache. This movie will teach you something about yourself and the world around you; it asks you tough questions. This movie, although set in the past, gives truths that are no less valid today. I have watched this film critically many times, and each time, I find something new to learn. I do not have expertise in film but I find this movie well-made. I have studied this period of time to some extent and have found this film to be close to historically accurate. I would highly recommend The Boy in the Striped Pajamas to someone who is looking for a film to study critically or who likes a good tear-jerker. I would heed the pg-13 rating however, the realities of the prison camp may be too much for younger kids. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is a wonderful film for anyone who wants more than entertainment, it leaves you with an impression you won't soon forget.
