Atom User Reviews
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.
Metacritic
The Holocaust drama “White Bird” is a sensitive, well-meaning but ultimately rather programmatic film, presenting the tragedy mainly as a school lesson for present-day kids.
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.
