movie review



Last Sunday I went to my friend Jason's house to watch the movie "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas". It's a movie I wanted to see for a long time, but I don't think it was in a theater in Austin. Anyway, if you are looking for a a feelgood movie, or a movie to cheer you up, this is not for you. It's about a 8 yr old boy who's father gets a new job which is the head of a Nazi concentration camp. From his bedroom window he can see it. He thinks it is a farm. One day he is bored and takes a walk and finds himself at the fence. He sees another 8 year old boy on the other other side, & they become friends. The rest of the film deals with him about his trying to find the truth about the farm (camp). I liked it. Not much action, but a good story. Jason thought there was no connection between the 2 boys. They should have spent more on their friendship.
