Different experience at the movie

Rating: 9/10 (9 November 2019)

If you believe the old saying that comedy is tragedy plus time, then you can get the first part of the movie. The comedy only lasts for so long and it is not a rollicking romp poking fun at the Hitler Youth throughout. It is an exploration in how easily manipulated, molded, scarred and indoctrinated youth are and the preciousness of life. We are all one race and those that try to divide us with looney tune notions need to be laughed at. The youth look at us for their cues. We hate; they hate. We love; they love. Let us teach children love and acceptance. Obviously Hitler was unredeemably evil. This movie takes Hitler and Nazis and removes the power of the image and makes him and Nazi notions the clownish nonsense they are and that should be laughed at. (Yes millions were killed in factories of death but this is not that movie - It tries to make you laugh at them instead of being overwhelmed by their power and savagery and trail of countless bodies). If you are an adult and look fondly to the Third Reich, you need serious help and deprogramming.
