This movie was amazing

Rating: 10/10 (28 December 2019)

Coming from German heritage, the first 10 minutes of this movie made me squirm uncomfortably as I looked around the theatre too see whether Nazi humour/satire was now OK. The opening shots also showed the fanatic crowds from Hitlers rally's which left the viewer in no doubts about the sway the National Socialists had over much of the German public. In this context, the film displayed the comic genius of the director, as well as the most moving acting by the main child actors and Jo Jos mother beautifully played by Scarlet Johannson. Hilarious and moving. You won't be disappointed.
