Negative Positive
Title: Badly Made and Imitative
Review: The filmmaker apparently wanted to make her own version of "Schindler's List". She does so, and imitates all that film's faults : it's overdone, manipulative, garishly melodramatic, and vulgar. Would that she had focused more on "The Pianist" instead, a film that demonstrates the power of realism and understatement, and is the polar opposite of this one.
