"Omg. I've never cry so much during a movie"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I have been looking for this DVDs for years and now I've finally found it on Mighty Ape. Thank you. This movie made me cry so hard. It shows histrocial things but also captures you in the thoughts of a young boy who doesnt always no what no means. and doesnt understand how not everythings good for you.

An unthinkable vignette from germany's darkest hours. A compelling storyline underpinned by friendship, naievity and innocence. – compelling.

Critic Reviews:

  • " A superb adaptation of John Boyne's novel bears witness to the unyielding horror of the Holocaust through the eyes of a child. " – Leigh Paatsch
  • " This intelligent film offers a fresh perspective on an oft-portrayed period, asking the viewer to question his own assumptions about what he expects and wants from such a telling. " – Kelly Jane Torrance
  • " We are left in no doubt about the brutality of what's going on there but it's almost entirely off-screen. Still, the film is terribly confronting. " – Paul Byrnes
