JoJo Rabbit is Taika Waititi's (What We Do in the Shadows) latest film. It is a magnificent heartfelt drama/comedy. Set durning World War II, the story follows JoJo (Roman Griffin Davis) a ten year old boy who is being raised by his mother (Scarlett Johansson). His dream is to one day become a member of Hitler's personal guard. To help JoJo to fulfill his dream is his imaginary friend, Adolf "as in Hitler"(Taika Waititi). JoJo is injured in a terrible (and hilariously acted) accident, durning his first outing with the Hitler Youth.
Upon his recovery he finds his mother has hidden a teenage Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic.
Every actor in this film is perfect in their roles. perfection. Young JoJo and his friend Yorkie (Archie Yates)
are both charming and believable. Sam Rockwell is great as always in the role of Captain Klenzendorf, leader of the "Hitler Youth" and Rebel Wilson is at her over the top best as Fraulein Rahm.
The story was thought provoking, heartbreaking and hilarious all at the same time. This was Taika at his best. Taking him back to his indie roots. Go check this out, you won't be disappointed.
