The Reader

The Reader is a tale of love between a 15 year old guy and a 30+ woman though its not a love story. It talks about war crime and holocaust and still not a war movie too. The tender intimacy of the love story gives the film its strongest moments. It’s a simple, sombre, soft, somewhat emotional but confused movie. Kate is phenomenal. Even the young David Kross has done his bit.

But if slightly slow paced movies are not your cup of tea then you better give it a miss. The movie has everything but still there is lot more which one feels missing. It just doesnt give THAT indescribable 'FEEL'. The Movie should be seen more for Kate's acting prowess rather than anything else
