Downfall of Hitler!! Rise of the Cinema and Bruno Ganz!!

Rating: 9/10 (14 April 2008)

This movie belongs to Bruno Ganz for depicting the title role of Hitler, and believe me it is one of the best acting in a biographical role I have ever seen on screen. Maria Lara as Hitler's secretary too is very well depicted role and the story is from her point the way she sees Hitler in his final days. Acting from others too is very good, direction is excellent, music score is good, and camera work too is top notch. I didn't understand how to react to this movie after first viewing, should I be sympathetic to the characters or should I be happy for the end, as WWII and atrocities of Hitler is the worst in the history as far as my knowledge goes, but I will say this that I was stunned by the movie 100%. It is that good. The effort by the team of this movie must be applauded for there amazing work and bringing history closer to us in the movie in a best form possible. Watch it if you like the subject of war, knowing more about Hitler and his last days. Or just watch to see the amazing work of Bruno Ganz.
