I thought this film was excellent. I'm a big fan of cinematography and architecture so that alone was a big win but I also enjoyed the storyline. At times it was a little slow and was a little heavy handed with the foreshadowing and symbolism but overall I found the story drew you in and I really was invested in the characters and genuinely sad when their lives were torn apart. I would have liked a little more backstory between Liesel and Hana - for example where did they meet and how did they fall in love. Also sometimes it felt a little one sided and that Hana was more in love than Liesel. However overall I would recommend this film. I know some reviewers felt this movie was too disjointed and plot points were missed. The story is definitely not spoonfed to the audience and some connecting of the dots it required but I quite liked that and the overall story was well told and I really believed the love and devotion throughout the story.
