As I left viewing “The Zookeeper’s Wife” I felt it was fine but didn’t have the impact other Holocaust movies had on me after such a viewing. The movie covered all the bases but something kept it small in my mind. For I wanted to believe it was going to be a great movie that I wouldn’t allow my mind to think what is was missing. The truth is a Holocaust movie should not worry about ratings but instead be concerned with the impact the film has on it’s audience and if that means showing more raw footage or brutal actions then that must be done. Characters must be well drawn out if we are to find the tears coming out of our hearts. This is what “The Zookeepers Wife” was missing which left it with a small impact rather then the large impact that it should have had as one family risked everything to save hundreds from slaughter.
