Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

"La vita è bella" has always been my favourite movie since the first time I saw it. I can't find the words to describe the magnificence and the beauty of this movie. Roberto Benigni has really taken the love, that machinery that moves the world. Life Is Beautiful is about love, between father and son, between husband and wife and between every single persone that lives on earth. He found the love and the positive energy in a tragedy. and he was not hilariously about the holocaust, he made a movie that's about the love that saved people in that horrible history moment that gave hope to those to continue; the love that everyone should have but that they have forgotten because we have everything and we don't remember importance and value of things. This movie marked my life forever. I don't understand how some people doesn't take the sense. It's a geniusly thing, if I can say that. It's above all things. I have never found a movie that can be compared to it. This movie is about a Jewish family who live in the holocaust period, so it can not be that sad. But yet the tears coming out of your eyes are not of sadness, are of joy. Joy that you feel when you see the beauty of the humanity, in contrast of the tragedy. You see what love is able to do to a us. A father who saved his son from (maybe) the worst tragedy in the world with the humility. How can you make a child (the hope, the future and the innocence in the world) understand genocide if not by its means. To the person who said that this film is sucks because you can't be hilarious talking of what happened in the Second War World, it's no hilarious, he reflects all the feelings that every feel.

For me, this movie is the most beautiful that I have never see. The story is so powerful, we can prove many feelings. First, we can see the life of the main character who is peaceful and enjoy. He would have a job and he is determinated to realised his dream. And this adventure to find a job is the begining of his beautiful love story with Dora. And after their wedding, they have a son. But it is also the begining of the World War II and they are taken in a concentration camp. But Guido, the father explains to his son, Giosuè that the camp is just a complicated game. I think that the most touching in this story is the relation between Guido and Giosuè. The father think just at the serenity of his son. He knows that the situation is desperates but he continues to say that it is nothing. He does abstraction of his feeling and his sadness to be sure that his son doesn't be stressed, and that until the end. When German officer take Guido to kill himself, he continues to act like it was in a game. Actors are exceptionals and we can feel all the sadness of this moment!!!
