If you don’t like drama movies, this might be the movie that makes you love them. It also happened with us, the diehard humor, action and thriller fans, who seemed to love a good drama. The movie is another movie on the 9/11 drama. But not JUST another movie. This movie is more dramatic, more personal and especially more compassioned. It looks through the eyes of an extraordinary 9-year old little boy called Oskar Schell who has a high IQ and loves his father (almost literally) to dead.
The movie starts with some nice family shots of Oskar with his father and mother. This makes it visible how inspired Oskar is by his father. Than on a day (which is later constantly refered to as The Worst Day) Oskar walks home from school, on his way home he hears something is happening. However, he doesn't have a clue what is going on yet. When he finally gets home, the Voicemail is full of messages from his father. Terrifying, he listens to them. Hearing his father is in the particular building while the plane is crashing in to it makes everything meaningless.
The, he starts looking for clues that his father might have left to him. This is triggered in his mind because he used to play difficult questionnaires with his father. Strongly believing in this information seeking game, he finds a small envelope in his father’s closet which is hidden in a small blue vase. The envelope says Black and contains a key. This makes him look for all the people who live in New York with the last name Black. For this, he visits a total of 374 families, all telling his story his father dieing and the key that he left for him, which needs to fit in a lock that is owned by one of the families.
The movie has too many details that should be known to write a short review that consists of all that should be known. Therefore, we would like to ask you watch this movie. It will truly grab you and get you into the mind of Oskar, maybe even dropping a small tear.
Rating: 4,5/ 5
