8 / 10 One of the few boy films that is genuinely spooky. Sad and true to life as so many foreign films tend to be, 'The Devil's Backbone' brings out great performances from the boy actors involved.
My Movie Rating: 8 / 10 8 / 10 I thought this film was very good and the story was very touching. The film brings a lot of good meaning and it tells a story like a actual story of a war that took place, a bomb that took place, and a lot of children and people dies in that aspect including a innocent boy. The story brings a lot of good attention into its place because as of today many things takes place so as you watch this film you'll feel good things because helping people and children from this situation can change everything and more, but this film brings more than one meaning. I loved the storyline I thought the writer did fantastic bringing all the pieces together and colors; awesome sizzling. Also the cast did fantastic too I thought they had a good personality and more. I recommend this film.
