muzzypatmn This movie was well done. Christopher Plummer, as always, was wonderful playing the demented man. Started out slow, but the ending was not what I expected. Shocking twist.

cheergal This movie reminded me the other one, "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas". Besides both stories were setting in Nazi area, there are not much in common. However, the originality and creativity of their unique storyline might put them into the same category. Nevertheless, I preferred this one better. "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" did not resonate with me in the same way as this one. The likelihood of this movie happened in real live might be possible. That intrigued me. The settings and scenarios are well though out. It is not much to be elaborated. But it would surprise audience with its ending. I am not so impressed by "The Boy in the Striped Pajama". The main reason is from the start you already could tell how it would end . The tragedies were well written every step away. I would not suggest parents to let young kids to watch it because of the cruel ending. It will terrify them. This one is better plotted to its ending. Although its ending might not be pleasant, it was logically unfolding.Watch it and you will not be disappointed.

Stephen Conway Well what a surprise, my wife popped this on and I thought it would be less than average; however what a film. Excellent screenplay, superb acting, and beautiful cinematography. Slowly developed but yet perfectly paced. However, do yourself a favour - stop reading now and watch it; trust me you will not regret it.

Floyd Shoemaker I wasn't sure what to think of this movie when I started watching it. I had no idea what was coming. It is a fabulous movie from beginning to end. It is definitely a new twist on the subject of WWII, Nazis and the extermination of the Jews. Watch it now and don't talk to anyone who has seen it until you have!
