"19.2. (Yle Areena) Lue kommenttini Dunkirkista. Saulin poika yrittää auttaa ihmisiä hädän hetkellä. Minua alkaa jo kyllästyttää tämä keskitysleirielokuvien määrä. Jesús teki nämä paljon paremmin. Luin tämän aikana Wikipediasta Auswitchista ja Mengelestä. Taidan jatkossa kiistää holokaustin ja lähteä Brasiliaan etsimään kuoleman enkelin ruumista."

"What a great piece of art. The camera starts rolling and Saul walks towards it. We got a Close-up from our character, and the camera will stay as close as it can to the face of Saul. Lots of long tracking shots and a gut-wrenching story about Capos on the concentration camps during WWII. "

Note: With this movie, right from the beginning, you are immersed in some kind of chaotic and irrational mayhem, it's so relentless that the makers don't give you one single wide shot in order to breath, to take a few seconds to understand what j"

A very good movie

“Since I kept hearing some really good things about this movie, I was quite eager to check it out and, eventually, I was definitely not disappointed by the damned thing. Indeed, it turned out to be the best movie released in 2015, no less than that. I have to admit that I was 'glad' that I saw 'Shoah' not so long ago as it greatly helped me to understand what the hell was going on and to appreciate this impressive movie. To be honest, I'm not sure if you can get into this movie if your knowledge about the holocaust doesn't go beyond 'The Schindler's List' or what they teach you in school.

" Out of the countless movies that have depicted the holocaust, I can't imagine a single one of them feeling more "real" in their depiction than Son of Saul. Probably because the movie shows us every atrocity with a completely unwavering eye, and shows characters who have become so desensitized toward the horrors surrounding them that they show little emotion, rather than the usual Hollywood tearjerker treatment."
