Meticulous, thorough, but not entertaining.

Can I possibly be one of the first Americans to comment on IMDb about this film? Oh well...I don't pretend to represent all of America...just me. Although I'm sure that those from Europe will have a much different perspective of this movie than me.
This film was seemingly very meticulous and thorough, but not at all entertaining. I'm just really surprised at how much American film critics liked this movie. "Downfall" was almost documentary-like in form. And there's a reason why most documentaries don't do well at the box-office. They're just not very entertaining. So now I know what Hitler's last days probably looked like. Educational? Yes. Informative? Yes. Was I entertained? Nope.
