Reviews
RottenTomatoes Score: 63% Fresh
MetaCritic Score: 54/100
IMDB Rating: 7.8/10
My Response: This movie is supposed to be a very well made Holocaust movie (and based on the well reviewed novel), which means that it should be pretty depressing. While depressing isn't a good mood for a first date, it's great for award shows, and this British film is generating some buzz in that department. Seeing the Holocaust from the eyes of a child is a great new perspective, so I think this film is worth a look.
