It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

I have just finished watching this movie for the first time and OMG how on earth did I let this one slip by! It has to me one of the most powerful, moving and thought evoking movies ever produced, made even more so by the fact that it is a true story and these atrocities actually happened. This is not my usual genre but I was engrossed for the full 3 hours 15 minutes that the movie ran for. Spielberg really brings this one home! This is arguably his best movie to date and he has some great movies to compare against. I have also seen Liam Neeson in a completely different light and this performance really highlights what a truly great actor he is.I know there are some views on here stating that we don't need these atrocities spelled out to us in such a brutal fashion but actually I think we do. Yes we all know that atrocities happened during WWII but watching Schindler's List brings home the reality of it and really lets you empathize with the plight of not just the Jews but every other persecuted people in nearly every other war throughout history and the genocide that is still happens today. We should never forget that this and other atrocities actually happened, which some quarters seem to want us to do in today's politically correct society. It also shows us that even in the darkest hour there will always be a light of hope and humanity and that there are still good people in the world.Everybody should see this movie once and even if you think it is too much and score a 1, you can't be human if you are not moved just a little.

This movie is one of the greatest films ever made. Liam Neeson should of won the Oscar for this film. You can watch this film as many times as it is a reminder of what could happen again in the future and how strong the human spirit is

A film shot in a documentary style can be wrenching and brutal, but can it also be as poignant and touching as usual great drama films? Yes, Spielberg proved this is very possible! I was overwhelmed with all different feelings throughout its 3 hours and 15 minutes runtime. This movie's catharsis is even may be stronger than any movie I've watched in my life! Neeson's performance as Oskar Schindler is easily his best performance ever. He brought his character to life which is already can be top any list for top 10 most complex and compelling characters in film. Schindler's List is undoubtedly a masterpiece, and easily one of, if not the best Spielberg's films, and its greatness made it the most rewatchable hard-to-watch movie ever!(10/10)
