Definitely worth watching

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2005)

I find the greatest assets of the film to be its total historic accuracy and complete realism. It is absolutely believable, some scenes are even hard to watch, but this is what it was like. The depiction of the moral decay that overwhelms doomed men and women is awesome in its cruel veracity. In other, I think that Bruno Ganz did a fantastic job in physically impersonating Hitler, but lacked in the oral interpretation (I watched the original German version). Also, I found some of the schizophrenic aspects of Hitler's character to be a little overblown, as well as the characterization of Eva Braun a little superficial. All in all though, a very good film worth sitting in for 2 1/2 hours.
