Another kind of view to the history

Rating: 10/10 (10 July 2005)

Okay, so before you watch this movie clear your mind from all prejudices and think again about all Nazis being dead hearted monsters. Der Untergang is a very interesting example for every monster is ALSO a human being.
For me the best thing was, that in school they taught me six times about all the crimes that happened during the time of the 3rd Reich but never anyone told us about the humans that were involved. I once wanted to know, where Adolf Hitler was born, and I asked a teacher, he told me, that he didn't know, and it doesn't matter, for the only important thing about him were the 6 Million Jews he killed.
Please do not misunderstand me. Adolf Hitler is at least one of the worst, if not the worst criminal in history, but it makes me sad that nearly nobody thinks about him being human, and a disturbing realistic movie like Der Untergang becomes necessary to show the people that even he was.
