This is truly Spielberg's masterpiece, i don't think there's any other film he's made that makes a powerful and emotional impact on our lives other than this remarkable film.
This film should be viewed by every person at least once in their lifetime, because the moment we deny and forget that this ever happened; it's the moment we run the risk of allowing such a thing to happen again.
The first time I saw this movie I did'nt like it. Then I saw it again and I was in awe espically at the end, I cried my eyes out. This is a brilliant film and we as human beings need to work together and stop hatred towards each other.
In my opinion, Scindler's list is the best movie of all time - any other film in film making history moves u, touch u, twist u, gets u so emotional involved in the scenes n leaves u so shocked so breathless with impression that doesn't leave u in ur cold dreams like that one. any other movie can influence u in that way that u realize how shocking n vicious hate can b - that's the most important lesson nowadays
This movie touched me personally. This is the only movie on the list to do that. The Godfather I &2 are both very entertaining but they don't really make you feel anything much. Not saying that this is better it's just that this should be much higher in the list.
One of the things that bother me about this movei is the fact that in reality,Oskar didn't make the list,most of the people in it paid to be there.Schindler just put in the list some people he knew.That scene in the movie of him making the list didn't happen.Plus the ending where he cries saying he could have saved more didn't happen either.He just left with his wife,his lover and a few prisoners.
Tremendous filmaking. Spielberg really over-achieved with this film. Great score and extraordinary acting! Schindler and Goeth's characters were some of the most complex characters in film history.
@09tranm Well yea ive seen my fair share of "masterpiece's" which I didn't think were masterpieces but Raging Bull was just so powerful and SHutter Island is his worst film imo lol i'm glad you liked those other two though. Have you seen The King Of Comedy,Mean streets,Alice Doesn't Live here Anymore,The LAst Temptation Of Christ,Casino or The Departed? hopefuly you would like those. I think he's easily one of the top 3 best directors
@09tranm Schindler's List is a greater film that's defiinitely true but saying Raging Bull sucked is just stupid. Have you seen it more then once?, because maybe a re-watch could let it sink in it would be brilliant if Raging Bull swaped places with this though but it didn't suck in anyway, i'm suprised your comment actually got some thumb up's....1.The Godfather.2.2001: A Space Odyssey.3.Schindler's List.4.12 Angry Men.5.Citizen Kane imo... Raging Bull is top atleast top 10
@spxeli Don't start a debate with me on which movie is better because it's all a matter of opinion. I was merely expressing my opinions out loud. So, I'll just say this again. I'm sorry if I offended you, but I really don't want to get into this. If you really like Raging Bull that much go on the Raging Bull page and say how it's a lot better than Schindler's List. I don't care. Just don't try to troll me. Peace out.
@EnterTheWuTang1 Well I thought Shutter Island was just pretty good. Anyways, I've never seen any of those. I've seen the Departed though and I'm sorry to say I didn't like it.I mean Martin Scorses has a slight problem of making his characters cuss wayyyy too much. I mean I don't mind if a character cusses alot it makes them bad ass but every 5 seconds makes it annoying. I mean I just didn't get into the departed. I later saw Infernal Affairs(the original) which was much better.
@ANOMALY1ate Well that's my opinion. If you want to watch a movie that's seriously is about 1 douchebag who's not even cool like Hannibal, Darth Vader, or even the Zodiac Killer(another true story "Zodiac" was actually quite good) then go ahead. I won't stop you enjoy whatever film you want. However(mild spoiler), I found raging bull to be boring, slow, and it seemed to go nowhere except from a guy beating his wife, accusing his brother, and getting fat & ugly.
@spxeli I was merely pissed off. For me watching Raging Bull was a chor. A movie should be enjoyable and entertaining. It should touch a person. That's what a great film does. Raging Bull literally pissed me off. I don't care how original or how good the acting is in Raging Bull it was still a bullsh*t movie in my book. Again, sorry for pounding on your movie. If you love it then go ahead and enjoy it. Now, I know Martin Scorseses is a great director I really enjoyed Goodfellas.
@EnterTheWuTang1 Sorry but I honestly don't care. If you liked that movie I'm cool with it, but for me it sucked. I hated that movie and found it very overrated. I'm not saying Martin Scorseses is a bad director I really liked Goodfellas,Taxi Driver, and Shutter Island was great too. However, Raging Bull come on a douchebag boxer who gets fat at the end. I paid close attention to that movie & really tried to like it, but if a movies really that good you shouldn't try to like it.
Im just wondering how creatures like you can exist. You walk upright. Have hands to grab and a eyes to see. Your head making lies to a much older world whos familys lived in those times. I feel sorry for you to have such hate to write such things.
@stalkervision (cont.) holocaust happen. People who refuse this events are making fun of because of their ignorance. Again you have to show your position is valid first. Where is the document or transcript that supports your claim like the hill between veranda or the false eye witness account. Where is it? Is clearly self-evident that you read haven't read a book about the holocaust or even WWII.
@stalkervision Now please where are this stone cold facts? You shouting saying is true doesn't it make it true. If you don't provide me with facts with sources then I see nothing in the world would make you change your mind.
@spxeli I disagree. It's all a matter of opinion, but I think that Raging Bull SUCKS!! and it's overrated. There, I said it. I'm sorry if I offended you. If you liked Raging Bull that's totally cool with me. I don't care. All I know is that, I hated it, and I don't give a FUCK about Jake because he's a douche, but I care more about Oskar. Schindler saved people, but Jake beat his wife. I didn't find Raging Bull entertaining in any sense. I just found it dull.
@Fredwilson45 Um no. Martin Scorsese's did Raging bull and that movie sucked. It's wayy overrated. Yes, I am the minority. However, Raging Bull was as boring as hell & it's just about some douche bag boxer.The movie keeps dragging on and never really goes anywhere. I think that most people like it because it's vastly different from anything else. That's true. However it's vastly different in a very BAD way. Schindler's List was WAYYYYY better and not boring even though it was longer.
@stalkervision Do you know the definition of facts and reasearch? I don't think you do. Please provide sources! Where can I find these information where its been proven right? Your spouting exxagerated claims with no evidence and yet you want to be taken serious? No way pal. Look up the defintion research, then you actually do it okay? If you keep doing rants instead of facts then im wasting my time.
Ladies and Gentlemen, it breaks my heart to tell you: But this entire movie is a fucking fraud. The film DOES NOT resemble the concentration camps, and the entire movie is based on a book, which is correctly classified as a "novell". Somehow those jewish hoolywood dudes missed that, and printed "everything u see is the truth" on the movie hardcover. Swindlers List is so easy to debunk for a revisionist, that its actually boring. Kind regards

This was a great movie well done.
Angels Anyone? Based on real human compassion in a time of horror. Oscars earned his wings. Brilliant movie.
Great movie!!!!
Genius film.
This movie touched me personally. This is the only movie on the list to do that. The Godfather I &2 are both very entertaining but they don't really make you feel anything much. Not saying that this is better it's just that this should be much higher in the list.
of course
I agree with Amon giving hope is the cruelest thing you can do to people
One of the things that bother me about this movei is the fact that in reality,Oskar didn't make the list,most of the people in it paid to be there.Schindler just put in the list some people he knew.That scene in the movie of him making the list didn't happen.Plus the ending where he cries saying he could have saved more didn't happen either.He just left with his wife,his lover and a few prisoners.
This should be higher. The list should be like this:
1. The Godfather 1 & 2
2. 2001
3. Gone with the Wind
4. Psycho
5. Schindler's List
I put it in the top 10 filmes ever made..
What do you consider a good movie? Who do you consider a good director?
Tremendous filmaking. Spielberg really over-achieved with this film. Great score and extraordinary acting! Schindler and Goeth's characters were some of the most complex characters in film history.
So make an Oscar-winning movie about it and change everyone's minds.
@09tranm It didn't suck; you just can't appreciate great filmmaking.
It's already been done.
@09tranm I see what you mean about the cussing, I usually find it funny alot of the time to be honest. Ive still gotta see Internal Affairs
I think The Color Purple came pretty close though.
If they ever bring back a new list The Dark Knight will be on it.
"i forgot the rest." Then you missed the whole point.
Anyone else hear the Lawrence of Arabia theme at the end?
This is like Steven Spielberg's Raging Bull
Some ppl were jealous, yes, but thats not the main reason.
You are probably right. this movie makes you doubt a lot about this film, besides its pretty story.
Lawrence of Arabia is my favorite film of all time, but Schindler's List does NOT belong under it.
in 1993 is that movie really made in black and white
@09tranm Well yea ive seen my fair share of "masterpiece's" which I didn't think were masterpieces but Raging Bull was just so powerful and SHutter Island is his worst film imo lol i'm glad you liked those other two though.

:14 - :31 Goeth was as dry as a desert.

Your giving them hope!Thats cruel
@supermario0527 Lawrence of Arabia was the next film discussed so it was just about to carry over.
It's funny how you speak of them as ONE MAN. What kind of justice is that?
@stalkervision (cont.) ging their story each time.
this is the only movie in the top ten that i agreed with
i love the godfather, don't get me wrong, but not in my top ten, sorry
@stalkervision (cont.) shown me that what your saying is true. I'm going to ask again where are your sources! Show me!
@Fredwilson45 But this is more serious.
@stalkervision Why do you have to say this? What is your goal? What is wrong with you?
@EnterTheWuTang1 Well I thought Shutter Island was just pretty good. Anyways, I've never seen any of those. I've seen the Departed though and I'm sorry to say I didn't like it.I mean Martin Scorses has a slight problem of making his characters cuss wayyyy too much.

I later saw Infernal Affairs(the original) which was much better.
No But Watchmen was still good though.
@ANOMALY1ate Well that's my opinion. If you want to watch a movie that's seriously is about 1 douchebag who's not even cool like Hannibal, Darth Vader, or even the Zodiac Killer(another true story "Zodiac" was actually quite good) then go ahead.

The Dark Knight sucked. More like Watchmen on the list.
Titanic is overrated
What a mediocre film directed by a mediocre director. How did this make it on the list?
Ladies and Gentlemen, it breaks my heart to tell you: But this entire movie is a fucking fraud.

Swindlers List is so easy to debunk for a revisionist, that its actually boring.
