Atom User Reviews for White Bird
Such a wonderful movie! Bring tissue because it’s sad, but oh so beautiful.
One of the best movies I've ever seen. It's a movie that our youth need now. There is no religion in this. Just moral teaching and essential history.
5 stars! A truly wonderful movie for the entire family
Wow!!! Soooo good! Made me cry!!!
It was ok a bit boring
Wow! Outstanding performance by all. Superb movie that should serve as a reminder to never let this happen again. I only hope the younger moviegoers can appreciate the world they live in today and.preserve its freedom.
A movie that you can actually apply to your life!
Beautiful story telling, Helen Mirren moved the narrative along and tied the two timelines together. A tear jerker, but the themes of resilience, kindness and coming of age were so prevalent. Worth it!
Well made, well projected message! Thank you!
Beautiful movie. We loved the whole story.
I thought the movie was phenomenal and it kept me in suspense and I would recommend it to anyone looking to see a good movie
Great moving story about one of the most horrible events in human history. It will remind you of the power of kindness; love in action.
“Live Humanity” message at the end is beautiful
Great movie! Bring tissues.
Excellent movie.
Great story of the importance of being light in dark times/situations. We need this reminder today
A great thought provoking movie.
This is a touching and wonderful film with a timely message. All that's needed to allow this to happen again is for good people to do nothing.
This bright spot was a timely reminder to persist and be light in the midst of darkness. “The courage to be kind” is real now more than ever and I’m grateful for beautiful this work was expressed. Thank you for reminding humanity that love is normal.
This was such an inspiring movie! It showed what kindness could do and how important it is!
Great movie about bravery and kindness
It was a good movie with a timeless message!
It was okay. The storyline was sad and the cast was great.
I'm buying it!
Wonderful movie. I lost count with the # of times I cried. I brought my 13 year old and she thought it was a great movie. Great storyline & it’s sad when you put in perspective it happened not long ago :(
Love and courage come with a sacrifice. All great heroes movies demonstrated courage and sacrifice. This shows how an ordinary weak physically but strong mentally person could save life/lives. Ends bullying with a simple gesture.
one of the best movies I have ever seen. A story you can never forget.
A must see movie about humanity and the acts of kindness, love, and perseverance.
Beauty from ashes…must see!
I became immersed in the story line of the movie. Having spent some time in Germany, and visiting some of the camps, it brought back several emotions about the resilience of the Jewish people and the exposure to inhumanity that can come from mob madness.
It was so inspiring and great!
It was a film depicting human resilience in very tough times. I don't think it was based on real people, but it felt like it could be. The lesson being taught is a lesson we all would do well to learn.
Oscar oscar
That movie was also me and sad
Great Story!!!
I was enthralled for the whole show! I would like to watch again.
Read the book and was not disappointed. Beautiful story that applies to everyone. Touching and sad.
Get your tissues ready! A must see!
This movie is the best…… haven’t seen a movie this good in a long time! The cast did superb!!!! This movie is a must see for the whole family….
Super good made me cry
We really enjoyed this film, the cast was amazing and it all felt very natural and was not heavy-handed, despite the possibility that it could be. The perspective taking and learning of the main character also felt more realistic, when you understand someone else’s struggles it really helps you understand your own. (My husband was a little put off by the use of the wolves in the forest, but other than that really liked it.) The music was lovely, the cinematography was enchanting and the costuming was very good. I highly recommend this film.
An insightful and intriguing movie, telling the necessary narrative during the Holocaust.
must see movie
This movie made me cry. We need more light and kindness. We cannot let darkness over come us again. Thank you for the reminder .
Worth watching
Great must see movie 🎬 that if I could I would give it 10 stars 🌟 because it was just that good. Very inspiring movie needed in today's world.
Excellent movie.
Beautiful message that I'm afraid will get lost on most people. Nicely done and helps us remember of times when the world was not a good place.
Excellent and believable cast as well as a great story. It is very good for people to know the inhumane suffering experienced during WWII
I cried a river, but it is a great movie. It's inspiring, lovely and sad
Metacritic
With elegant acting from its two young leads and picturesque cinematography from Matthias Koenigswieser, it serves as a competently executed morality play for audiences craving a bit of unambiguous humanism.
One could argue that Forster and company calibrate their anodyne effects to make a Holocaust narrative that’s palatable for younger viewers. But what mostly resonates is a particularly lachrymose brand of show-business hedging.
It’s a little by-the-book — exactly, perhaps, what you might expect from elevated historical fiction aimed at young adults. Being a good-hearted, straightforward film that might even have you shedding a few tears is no crime against cinema.
