Schindler's List (Widescreen Edition) Customer Reviews (70 - 72 of 73 Reviews)

A movie to be forever treasured and honored.
"Schindler's List" is a movie so epic and far reaching in its impact that one stops watching it and says, "...so that's why film was invented." Steven Spielberg takes us back to the haunting horror of war-torn Poland and its condemned Jewry during WWII in a film so impeccably well filmed and performed there need not be any kind of "suspension of disbelief" on the part of the viewer. Liam Neeson delivers the performance of his life starring as Oskar Schindler, a true person who takes pity on the imprisoned Jews and helps over 1,100 to safety. He does this against the will of supervillian Amon Goeth, masterfully played by Ralph Fiennes in what in my opinion is the finest theatrical presentation ever captured on film. The film is primarily historical but beautifully touches at the theme of the survival and triumph of the human spirit. Truly, the only disappointment about "Schindler's List" is that not enough films such as this grace our lives. END

But just barely
With this movie, you have a lot of people giving it 5 stars because it is epic in scope, you will have some people give it 5 stars because it is Steven Spielberg, and you will have some people give it 5 stars because it addresses the Holocaust.

This movie is great for all of these reasons together, but not any one in particular - Spielberg just barely pulls it off. All of them come together to make a 5-star film. It gets better with each viewing - we have been waiting too long for the DVD.

Conerned about anti-German Violence
As we have seen with "the Passion of the Christ" resulting in AntiSemetic violence, I have grave concerns this re-release of Schindler's list on DVD will result in anti-German violence....
