Szabó Szilárd Liked the first half of it. I didn't know what I was going to watch. Downsizing and this movie has a problem in common. Downsizing failed because it started out serious then it went into a comedy.This one started out as a comedy and it kept being funny even in a death camp which is a pretty serious thing. Which it seems by the reviews only a problem for me. Not realistic at all by any means. Not even the time spacing is realistic..Utterly overrated.( Seen over 2000 movies, about 180 of the top250, I gave them about their imdb score. I love movies like Citizen Kane, Casablanca, Star Wars, every work of Hitchcock and Kubrick, Nolan movies, etc.. I can enjoy every genre, I have a great taste. That's the reason when I'm saying this is overrated you should atleast just think about it.)
adonis98-743-186503 When a Jewish librarian and his son become victims of the Holocaust, he uses a perfect mixture of will, humor, and imagination to protect his son from the dangers around their camp. Life is Beautiful has Benigni doing his usual things both in front and behind the camera and unfortunately his humor is quite dated. (4/10)
cathylr The title is voluntary naive. Roberto Benini puts a lot of energy to try to convince the ones around him that human being has nothing but good intentions. Life is certainly not beautiful but this film definitely is.
pardojoan The movie is split in two different movies. The love between a man and a woman. And how a father explain the crude reality to his son like a game.
