Movie Reviews of Europa Europa
Movie Review: A gem!
Summary: 5 Stars
Agniezka Holland retakes one of so many stories lived through the bloody WW2. But this time she presents us an epic, courageous and epic (if I may) stoy, about a German-Jewish teenager who could survive in the WW2 concealing his own identity and living as a Nazi citizen during seven long years through three countries. A valorous and worthy to mention anecdote that shows us even in the most horrid and hopeless moments the human soul always finds an occasion to survive.
As a curious fact, the title of this film matched with the film of Lars von Triers, and that was the reason why Europe of the Danish director was modified by Zentropa.
Movie Review: Excellent Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is amazing, it gives great portrayal of both life as a Jew under Nazi rule, as well as simply showing the timeless themes of growing up and making your own way in the world. My history teacher showed this to us in class and it exposed laughable nature of Nazi ideology, as witnessed during the humorous yet all too real idea that people believed this nonsense wholeheartedly. The story shows a side of the Holocaust very few ever see as Mr. Perel's extraordinary experiences are revealed. I reccommend this movie to anyone with its great comical scenes along with its stunning drama of the atrocities that are all around themMovie Review: Europa Europa
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought that the movie was depicted well. Although, there were some truths that were stretched and some imagination was used. The story of Solomon is a story of great luck, and a boy's struggles trying to survive during the Third Reich. Solomon is greeted by many people with different beliefs than him and he is very open to them. There were some unnecessary parts, such as some of the train seen, and the extended barn scene. Our history teacher wanted us to see what life was like for a teenage jew living in Germany, and I believe that this was illustrated tremendously in the movie.Movie Review: Watching this movie with Solomon Perel
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time I saw this film was in Masuah, Israel in the same room with Solomon Perel after hearing him talk about what he had gone through. Watching it with him was an amazing experience. He made jokes and sarcastic comments through the movie, and corrected the points in the movie that were exaggerated.
Some of the people I was with had studied the movie in a course or read the book and they said that the movie had touched them the first time, but meeting the man who had inspired the movie as something they had never imagined.
Movie Review: I love this movie !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is excellent! I can't believe more of my friends don't know this movie. It is truly an underrated movie by mainstream people, especially since it's a true story about a holocaust survivor. Even the music score is awesome. The music was written by Zbigniew Preisner, who has the most intense and sad music ever written for a holocaust movie. It's a crime that this movie is underrated by the mainstream. At least it won many film awards by independent film makers back in the early 1990s. There is justice afterall!!!
