The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas-Film review

I'm sorry to have to review such a sad, true and realistic film.  As many of you know, World War Two was a tough, brutal and terrible time. The Nazis, (the Germans) were attacking Jews, gays and people with anything other than blue eyes and blond hair. They would pack them up into a truck and after a period of time, gas them. The useful ones that could be used to do things for rich people would go and work for wealthy families, who often treated them like the back of a muddy shoe. 

In the film Bruno, a young, innocent and harmless boy is moving to the countryside with his older sister, his mother and his Nazi General of a father. Bruno is used to the smell of the city so when the country air is inside of him, it is a change, but he doesn't like that. The air is really filled with smoke, coming from a nearby concentration camp. People are being burned to death. 

 He looks out of his window and sees lots of people behind a barbed wire, in striped pyjamas. He is a curious young boy, who is wondering who these mysterious people are, in a dull, dusty yard. He tries to explore but the first time, his mother catches him and tells him not to go anywhere outside their grounds. He tries again and this time, he succeeds. He runs through a leafy jungle to find the back of the barbed wire. A boy is sitting there, looking hopeless and alone, he has a bald head and is wearing the enigmatic striped pyjamas that Bruno is wondering about. 

To cut a long story short, the two boys become friends and near the end, the mother decides not to live with their father anymore because he lied to her about the fact that there was a camp nearby. Bruno is sad to leave his new friend but he won't be for long. His friends Papa is missing and he goes into the camp to look for his dad. His friend gives him some pyjamas to look like one of them. Bruno looks like him. He climbs under the fence...

What will happen to Bruno on the other side of the barbed wire?

This film was a huge contrast to Despicable Me 2, don't you think? I cried so much after watching it, I probably cried off a few pounds. It was the fact that what I was watching, was something that had happened in real life. 

You have to be prepared to be emotionally drained to watch this film.

Despicable Me 2 - Movie Review

Right, so, have you ever laughed so hard that your insides hurt and your eyes start watering dramatically?

Well, if that doesn't happen to you often then maybe you should ... Ya know, watch the most amazingly hilarious film in 2013!

I loved the first Despicable Me very much. Especially since after going to my dads house, my two little sisters have made me see it millions of times, therefore, I could probably tell you what happens in just about every scene in the first hour of watching it. It says a lot doesn't it...

Anyway, I am not here to tell you about my experiences with being tortured into watching movies tens of thousands of times. I am here to tell you about my trip to the cinema to see Despicable Me 2.

Ok, if there was one word to describe the film it would be ' hilariously-fantab-ulosous-ly-tremend-didly-endous. ' I learnt that one off of my friend Alice!

So, in the film, ex-villain 'Grew' is hired to catch another villain who stole a potion to make a harmless bunny into a man eating monster. Grew and his 'partner', Lucy go undercover (as cake makers, in a mall) to try and find out who has it. Grew has a hunch about one of the other shop owners and his hunch is correct. I shan't tell you who or what happens because I guess you'll have to watch it!

I went to the cinema with my Dad my Step-Mum and my two sisters, Olivia and Annabelle. They were so excited to go and see the movie, that they wanted to see number three, directly after the fifth or sixth showing of the brand new number 2. There is no doubt that I could, by the time number 3 comes out, know the entire film of one and two!

Please go and see it, I think that you will love it!
