One of the best movies dealing with WWII ever!

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2004)

I saw the movie in the cinema today and it was definitely one of the best movies dealing with WWII, especially with the person of Adolf Hitler ever. The scene when I saw Hitler the first time, my heart almost stopped beating. It was as if I looked Hitler in the eyes, he was so "present" during the movie, and I did not only see the dictator Adolf Hitler, but also the human Adolf Hitler, smiling and hugging people.
Bruno Ganzs acting was astounding. He did not only look like Hitler, he also talked and screamed like Hitler. Nominating him for an Academy Award won't happen I guess, but he would deserve it nevertheless.
I watched the movie in a big cinema together with 500 other people, and during some scenes (e.g. when Miss Goebbels killed her children), it was so quiet, I thought I was sitting there alone.
This is definitely not a "popcorn"-movie, it is challenging, it takes your breath from the very first second on. Very well made. My rating: 5/5
