The director simplifies the film itself for the performance of the film, and he leaves a lot of room for the audience's imagination, such as not showing the living conditions in the concentration camp until the last 10 minutes, and after the release of the poison gas, the gate and the concentration camp covered with "striped pajamas" are two. A close-up still shot. But at the same time, the director made the film too dramatic again, the open back door, the undiscovered child, just happened to be killed...
I think the reason for the high score for this movie is obviously because of its subject matter and the sheer shooting, which of course would be impressive as a child's perspective on the war, and first of all the child himself has to be like a child (in Empire of the Sun) That is so neurotic). All in all, it's all about winning.
And the reason why I don't give high marks is that the movie didn't make me particularly emotional (which is of course the direct reason). Maybe Bruno's apparent fate in the end made me a little nervous, but the other aspects, including the expression of Nazi beliefs, the distorted image of the central defender, etc., hardly attracted me.
Maybe the movie itself is too real.
