A hilarious movie that can also be serious

Rating: 9/10 (25 December 2019)

First of all, this movie does an incredible job of juggling around its tones. This is a comedy movie at its finest but it's also a serious movie and Taika Waititi, who wrote, directed and plays Adolf Hitler, did a spectacular job of juggling them and knowing when to make a joke and when to hold back for the more serious scenes. Not a lot of movies are able to this and it helps this movie stand out among the rest. With the movie switching tones, the cast has to be able to switch to and man oh man did they get great actors for this movie. From the seasonal actors that we all know to the up and coming kid actors everybody just did a stellar job. There were two actors that really stood out to me and that was Roman Griffin Davis and Taika Waititi. I learned this online and I wanted to share this because it's just funny but one reason why Taika Waititi was amazing as Adolf Hitler is because he's Jewish so getting to play a silly version of him is just the biggest fork you, sorry but I had to say it, to him. Even not knowing that information he's still hilarious in this role. But the real stand out definitely was Roman Griffin Davis as the title character. This is his first film role, at least that's what IMDB told me, and he definitely has a bright future ahead of himself. He easily switched from comedic and drama so effortlessly that it made for an interesting main character with depth to him. In the end, Jojo Rabbit is a great movie that when it's released on DVD and Blue-Ray I highly recommended checking it out, you won't regret it.
