The Book Thief

Well all I can really say i s the director and screenplay writer have done an extremely hard job in order to ruin a magnificent script and turn it into a drab, boring and below average movie. The movie started off with death as a narrator as it is in the novel, things didn't last that way.

This movie has to be one of the best I have seen in a long, long time.SPOILER BEGINS This movies is not about the hardships of WW2 experienced by the British, French, Polish or other occupied country by the tyrannical Hitler, it is about the hardships encountered by ordinary German families, one family in particular.

After I read the book, this movie looks like a joke. They left out so many important things and I didn't understand much from it.

The book thief, Geoffrey Rush, Emily Watson! 2 actors I admire much...

A very moving interpretation of the famed novel is anchored solidly by a mesmerizing, dynamically stunning performance by Emily Watson. While she is aided by a wonderful turn by Mr.

The Story line is not hard to follow, and its not unbelievable. The Book Thief is a great entertaining look into the worlds history, and portrays the suffering each race, went through.

The movie was obviously not as good as the book, but it generally wasn't that bad. The time spacing was really bad, and they missed a few key points to the movie.

First things first: I haven't read the book. This despite the fact that I've worked in a bookstore for nearly eight years.

Best film ever... I only think why they rate it low...
