Antonia Tejeda Barros Oh, Germany suffered so much in the war!!! Poor blond German Nazi children, running in the woods without food... The movie shows the "suffering" of the poor Germans who, after killing 11 million of innocent men, women, and children (6,000,000 Jews, including 1,500,000 children!) and after having seen the photos of the extermination camps still loved Nazism and hold their hatred towards Jews. Pathetic. The character of the protagonist made me almost puke. A Nazi teenager. Racist and so ugly inside. Despicable. I don't know how this movie got even released. The director should be trial for Holocaust denial. The last words of the Nazi grandmother say it all: "Your parents didn't do anything wrong". Right: nobody in Germany did anything wrong but the chimenees of Auschwitz worked without stopping. A garbage film. Despicable. Never forget the victims and never forget who committed the crimes. Peace.

zaradees This review contains spoilers. If you have not seen the film then please don't read this review.My thoughts after the movie: I think the movie is about how everything Lore has been told to believe has been a lie. I think "Thomas" was not a Jewish survivor but someone on the run. I think he may have worked at the camp and therefore had stolen the ID of a real Jewish victim. He may have even given himself the tattoo. The signs pointing to him not being an actual refugee are: 1) we first encounter him at that chicken farm. A woman had been raped and murdered and the egg shells leading from that crime scene lead to "Thomas". He had been hiding there. I think he raped that woman. 2) When he sexually assaults Lore, he does that in front of photos of the victims of the holocaust. A normal survivor would be sickened and would not want anything to do with a German girl. 3) He follows them and it is in his interest to be seen with the group so that not to raise any suspicions. 4) For a holocaust survivor he is remarkably in good physical shape. He is resourceful. 5) He is aware that all the bridges have been destroyed. The German army destroyed the bridges to that the Americans would be delayed. A prisoner at a Concentration Camp wouldn't have known that. 6) He is too sexually interested in Lore. She calls him with anti-Semitic insults and he is not bothered 7) he escapes when he loses his papers. He was probably SS and using every trick to escape 8) One of the young boys had taken out the photo of their SS father. "Thomas" was close by. he did not get bothered by it. 9) He wanted to be under cover and under the radar. He was a Nazis and he was on the runLore sees all the lies at the end and everything clicks for her and that is why she breaks those figurines because she realises everything has been a lie and therefore she believes that Germans murdered Jews and she has had enough it. She doesn't want to be part of those beliefs. She is sickened by it.

MattyAndAnnika Lore released in 2012 directed by Cate Shortland was an amazing film with very few negative points. Lore is a film about her leading her siblings on a journey that exposes them to the truth of their parents' beliefs. In the days of Adolf Hitler when all came crumbling down and finally to an end. Lore in this film was the daughter of a Nazi militant, who he in the end was running to hide. Lore and her brothers an sisters didn't realize what her family was, they only knew what they we brought up to think. Lore ends up having to take her brothers and sisters far from the area being if they were found they would be put to death.This movie is outstanding! Caught it last night on Netflix based on the ratings of Lore on Rotten Tomatoes website. Netflix rating had a low score of which usually when we see a low star count we don't bother watching. Now Rotten Tomatoes had a score of 96% Tomatoes which states the movie is awesome based on real peoples opinions, so we watched it. To our surprise this film was remarkably put together, the acting was top notch, and the affect omg; so realistic. Lore is a sad film being that the eyes & the mind have to endure the thought of what mankind in that era had done, and become. It is a slow film working off of every detail, keeping you on your toes to watch; it is impossible to stop viewing it. It's a frightening film, knowing that things on both sides of the spectrum can be so easily misplaced within morality.The only thing that was bad or upsetting about the film, is the way it ended. You'd have to see it to decide for yourself, But think it's brilliant work! Check out the trailer below.

MartinHafer "Lor"e was the entry from Austria for the category of Best Foreign Language Film for the 85th Academy Awards in 2013, though it was not recognized as one of the final nominees. While there were some aspects of the film I liked, the overall package wasn't especially strong and perhaps this is why the film did not receive a nomination.When the film begins in 1945, the Nazi government is toppling. This is impacting one particular family in the movie, the Dresslers. Apparently the parents were war criminals—though exactly what they did is never really discussed in the film. All you know is that the mother and father are gone and the oldest child, Lore (Saskia Rosendahl), has been told by her mother to get herself and her siblings to their grandmother's house near Hamburg. Considering that they have no money, they are in the far eastern portion of Germany (or perhaps in Poland) and want to travel hundreds of miles to the west as well as Lore appearing to be about 15, this is a very daunting task. Most of the film consists of the children scrounging for food and scheming to make their way to safety and shelter. Eventually, however, Lore becomes disillusioned and their reunion with Grandma isn't so happy after all and the film ends.There is so much about this film that seems unanswered and vague. Who, exactly, the man was who teamed up with them and helped them is never really revealed—nor his fate. Similarly, why the parents (especially the mother) are war criminals isn't too clear. But, most importantly, exactly why Lore becomes disenchanted isn't really 100% clear. You assume that she has become skeptical about the Nazis and the rightness of the cause…but her actions in the end of the film could be attributed to many things—such as the repressive atmosphere at Grandma's. And, if she was disillusioned by the Nazis or horrified at their evil, what exactly caused this change in Lore? Could it simply be looking at the identity papers and photos from one supposedly dead Jew? And, apart from Lore growling at Grandma and stomping on some trinkets, how are she and the siblings going to deal with all this? All I know is that so much of the film is left to the interpretation of the viewer and had I not read a brief summary on IMDb, I would have felt lost.The idea of a girl slowly coming to realize the evil of her country and parents IS intriguing—and in the documentary Hitler's Children you see interviews with surviving family members of many of the worst Nazi butchers of the war. However, with "Lore", the message seemed muted and not nearly as compelling. This, combined with the extensive use of the hand-held camera and a slow plot, made this film a bit of a letdown for me. While it's not a bad film, it sure could have been a lot more interesting. If you do want to see the film, be advised that there is a decent amount of nudity and rather graphic depiction of suicides that are unsettling. I would have expected Lore and her siblings to perhaps see photos of dead Jews or concentration camp victims—but you don't. These folks were mostly Nazis who either killed themselves with gunshots to their head or were murdered brutally. "Lore" was just released on DVD and is also available through Netflix.
