mvie mu-1049318: If You Know The Name, You Know Too Much About "Schindler's List," Spielberg's Perfect Film!

Mon, 9 Nov 2009 13:57:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author wlswarts - There are certain things we seem to take for granted with modern cinema. Movies about the Holocaust are pretty much money in the bank (unless, I suppose, you're showing your movie in Iran) and the generally-assumed best movie about the Holocaust is...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author thewasp - Part of me did not want to have to review "Schindler's List" when I got a call from my girlfriend just as the movie was ending last night. But once she was off the phone I turned it back on anyway, although by that point the only scene left was the...

mvie mu-1049318: ~~ THIS LIST IS LIFE ~ OSCAR WINNER SCHINDLER'S LIST ~~

Tue, 4 Mar 2008 00:17:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kbolton72 - Brace yourself, this is not a feel good, popcorn & twizzler movie. This is a step back in time, to World War 2, to walk in the footsteps of the Nazis, the Jews, and those caught in the middle. Steven Spielberg of ET and Jurassic Park fame created a...

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 14:51:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kylewc316 - Steven Spielberg has directed many 'silver screen' masterpieces, this being another. The audience is guaranteed to be touched by this rarely seen serious side of Spielberg. The audience is also bound to be captivated by the events of the movie,...

mvie mu-1049318: One of the finest films ever, and essential viewing.

Thu, 1 Feb 2007 06:03:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author magiclips - It has been more than thirteen years now since Spielberg's masterpiece first appeared, but it is as relevant as ever. Indeed, one might say that, in this post 9/11 world, its themes of racial hatred (or at the very least, racial mistrust) are more...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cync - Winner of seven Academy Awards in 1993, this three hour epic is based on a true story, by Steven Spielburg, it very well portrays the horrors and sadness of the Holocaust. Although three hours of black and white may put viewers off, once you give it a...

Wed, 29 Dec 2004 17:38:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ninput - There came a point in time where I knew I had to go and see this movie. There was simply no way around it. Everyone kept talking endlessly about it, even though the film was more than 10 years old. If I were to have any credibility at being a film...

mvie mu-1049318: Pays deep respect to a tragic part of history.

Fri, 13 Aug 2004 02:30:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author amberlin - I first saw this movie when I was ten and I have to admit that I couldn't sit through it. Obviously at ten years old, it's hard to appreciate such a long and complex movie. I saw it again at 18 because I wanted to see the phenomenal performance by Ralph...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author choppyburn4 - I preface this review with the fact that I knew very little about this movie as far as plot and characters before I watched it. I will attempt to reveal as little as possible as I attempt to review the film, while still giving you a good idea of whether...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author alexdg1 - Even though Steven Spielberg had made some of the most successful -- and profitable -- films in movie history (E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, Jaws, the Indiana Jones series), he was always perceived as a master craftsman but never as a "serious" director...

mvie mu-1049318: Sobering look at the Holocaust

Tue, 9 Mar 2004 08:31:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SKAD13 - Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List (1993)--a clear-eyed, flawless look at the Holocaust--is a movie filled with infinite paradoxes. The most obvious paradox is its true story. Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson) was a German businessman who ran...

Fri, 27 Sep 2002 22:54:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ecn71270 - There is very little doubt that the Holocaust was pretty close to being the most barbaric example of Man's inhumanity to Man in our entire history. We can never fully conceive of the hatred that one man--Adolf Hitler--could have that he would kill...

Mon, 2 Sep 2002 13:44:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author cripper - When looking back at the 90s, there were quite a few good films that were made. In 1991, the horrific, psychological thriller, Silence of the Lambs, was a critical success. Braveheart was an epic film that also gained both critical and...

Fri, 4 Jan 2002 04:50:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author dlockeretz - Many film critics have pointed to the Holocaust as a particularly difficult subject for directors to handle effectively. It seems impossible to capture the enormity of the destruction without somehow diminishing it. Most importantly, this episode of...

mvie mu-1049318: Sad, but true. 20th Century cruelty at its worst

Fri, 23 Nov 2001 00:30:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author beeracuda - Schindler's List is a very long movie. However, the time passes by so quickly, the viewer almost feels cheated. Why? Because it's so easy to get caught up in the characters, as well as the plight of the Jews.

The movie is set in WWII Poland,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author telynor - If Steven Spielberg is remembered for only one film, please let it be this one. Adapted from the book by Thomas Kennealy, from the memories and stories told to him by Leopold Page, it's almost four hours of very intense moviemaking. Spielberg poured his...

mvie mu-1049318: Good but not the masterpiece the critics say it is

Tue, 8 May 2001 19:10:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author andaloo - This may well be Spielberg's best film, and it succeeds on many levels, though a masterpiece it is not. Depicting the horrors of the Nazi holocaust in vivid detail, the film does well in presenting an authentic eastern european perspective of the terror...
