I don't think it's boring, I think it possesses the wrong tone
Kubrick had it right, it's about 6 million people who are murdered not 600 who were not.
Life is beautiful, the guy sacrifices his life
Schindler's List, the guy sacrifices his fortune
A great movie to be sure, but not "essential" nor is it the definitive movie on the holocaust (there isn't one) yet it is treated as such

You can't tell the complete story of the Holocaust in one movie and do it justice. And if memory serves (and it does because I just watched this film again last night) there were mountains and mountains of dead people throughout the film. Schindler's List pulls no punches when it shows Germans killing Jews.

He also risked his life. Had the SS found out what he was really up to he would have been killed. But never mind that.

If Schindler's List isn't an essential World War II film then there is no such thing as an essential World War II film.
