Great Movie

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 2005)

An excellent movie. Finally, a movie that transmits the bunker mentality. Many films have failed to deliver this impression. This movie is accurate, well written and thoughtful. The scene of the death of the Goebbles children is beyond reproduction. This is how it must have happened. The last scene, with Junge leaving the Russians without interference is amazing. If you want true, historical cinema about the end of the Reich, look no further. This movie is a most for those who teach history. The opening scene re-enacts the famous photograph of Hitler handing out crosses to youngsters. His hands trembling with paralysis. Also, the role of the those who hung "deserters" is vivid. The old man in the cap, who hangs the innocent, yet hides from the red army is all so real.
