Summary: An instant classic
Review: This is possibly the best movie I've ever seen. It filled me with joy and a sudden love of the world despite the harsh realities it deals with about the holocaust. Roberto is captivating and steals your heart for the first hour and by then you are so in love you find yourself laughing and crying all at once...I did at least.

Summary: Bravisimo!
Review: I'm surprised no one else has pointed out how "Life is Beautiful" compares to "Titanic." (Okay, I haven't read all the reviews, but...) In both cases we have the proper woman who is supposed to marry the very proper man. Instead she falls for a vagabond; someone who is far from "proper" but someone who definitely knows how to enjoy life. And in both cases the story is told against the backdrop of disaster."Life is Beautiful," however, is a fantasy. No, it could never really have happened. Yes, the Holocaust was far more horrible than this movie shows. But we already know how horrible the Holocaust was. That is not what this movie is about. Instead, this movie is about a father's love for a his son, and how that father will do anything under any circumstance to protect that son. So Roberto Benigni, I say "Bravisimo!"

Summary: One of the best film in the last few years
Review: Words cannot express how beautiful this film truly is. Roberto Benigni will show how life is really beautiful. Being swept away to the concentration camps in WWII and still being able to find moments to laugh and take his five year old son out of the camps with only imagination. When I get frustrated at the little things in life, all I have to do is think of this film to realize how lucky I am. This is the only film that has ever made me cry by just thinking about it.

Summary: Bellissimo
Review: To say that I loved this movie is not enough. I laughed and cried throughout this movie. The characters are so real. I wanted to help them while they were in the concentration camp. When the little boy thought that it was a game and they won I cried for him and his daddy. They became a part of me. I want nothing more than to have this movie in my video collection.

Summary: Impossible
Review: Having a positive attitude and a creative immagination is one thing, but this movie asks us to believe that for the love of his child, a father is able to convince his son that life in a concentration camp is a game. Albeit a hard and difficult game, but worth the sacrifices and suffering in order to win the grand prize, a military tank. The denial is overwhelming. In fact, the denial is so overwhelming that my mind found it impossible to accept the fantasy, no matter what the reason.

Summary: Wonderful movie on love for son, thru wit & humor!
Review: The first 1/2 hour sets up the personality of the Father. Showing how he tries to make life beautiful no matter what situation he is in, but to me the REAL story begins when he & his son are taken to the concentration camp; and he gets the boy to believe it is a 'game' to win 'THE BEST PRIZE." Very touching movie I'd love to watch again. Will buy it as soon as the price goes down. Even my teen-age grandaughter watched it and enjoyed it very much.

Summary: A brave masterpiece.
Review: Firstly, why do some critics seem to think this was laughing at the Holocaust? Anyone with half a brain can see this was concentrating far more on the love between father and son and the lengths some go to protect the ones they love. This really is a deeply effective film that is very funny and deeply sad. If you dogmatically hold to Hollywood plot construction and devices, you'll no doubt be confused. It's true that the film is in two parts in narration, but that really doesn't effect the feeling. Also, Benigni uses surrealism to a certain degree to illustrate his point. It's quite ironic that the critics who have denounced this film have applauded amoral films like Pulp Fiction and Silence Of The Lambs which seem to glamourise their subject matter.

Review: Quite the correct shot for classical movie collectors. Even after 30 years I'm sure people will be watching this film again. While you are watching this film you'll laugh and cry lot and see that the performance of acting is unbelievable.
