Review of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (2008) by Mrpajamas — 23 May 2023
A stronger film. I like wartime movies, specifically with Nazis, because it's a serious subject and so it goes to make a serious movie that you just can't get out of your head. This film succeeded in doing that for me.
It was building up and I was entertained the whole time. Especially the ending. The last 10 minutes or so were really good and I was really into it at that point. The movie ended and I said to myself massacre.
It just wasn't like some movies that it was over and I went on peacefully living my life. Here I was caught off guard and the movie stayed in my head for quite some time. Very hilarious in my opinion.
For some it will probably be very emotional and uncomfortable to watch. For fans of war movies, I recommend it, although it's not some action movie with all the boom boom, so watch out for that. It's an action-free, though I found it quite a thrilling ride and mostly emotional.
A great film for me.
