I enjoyed watching the film but it seemed as if it was meant for children around 10 or 11 to see. It gives children an idea of what it was like in germany during the Second World war.

Very powerful performances in this story that takes place in Germany during WWII . A very good side of the story of what German families where going through during the Second World War .Very strong performances by Emily Watson and Geoffrey Rush makes this a possible Oscar contender.

This is a beautifully told story. I wasn't expecting much when I sat down to watch it, but within minutes I was totally captivated by the characters. This is an absolute must see!

The film was beautifully acted and filmed. The lead actress was sublime. The story was very emotional and engaging; however, I found the conclusion a bit cold and detached.

The Book Thief is a terrific, heart-warming film that everyone can enjoy... "The Book Thief" takes place during the Holocaust back in WW2 in Nazi's Germany, a subject seen in many other similar movies, but the beauty of this movie comes from the perspective viewers get - that of a child's. There is a great mix of different pieces that move the film along well - the violence and the intensity of the time period, the touching relationships between friends and family, and the humor they all share. Though it's nothing new, the writing and lines are still great and make the characters very likable. Performances by the entire cast, no matter how small or large a role they play, are certainly

I really enjoyed the movie. And I liked the all actors chosen for their part. Some movie parts you tune out-but not with this one, I did not want to miss a part.
