The Boy in the Striped Pajamas has a lot going for it, and it may in fact be a very worthy way to introduce younger audiences to the horrors of the Holocaust, as it doesn't feature much overt violence and also offers a nice hook for youngsters in that it's told from the perspective of an eight year old. But the film really doesn't hold up to a reasoned examination once it's over, despite its very visceral shock value in its final moments. Does that defeat the film's purpose? Is it even possible to craft a film about the Holocaust told from a German point of view? It's to The Boy in the Striped Pajamas' credit that it at least has the courage to try, and the fact that it succeeds at all, if not in total, is something of a minor miracle. Highly recommended.
