Let's mock Nazis, that always works.

Rating: 9/10 (26 February 2020)

It's been awhile now since I watched a movie that was special and by that I mean a movie that you will remember for a long time. Most of the time you only remember movies that were extremely bad or/and the ones that are worth winning awards. Jojo Rabbit deserves its award, Taika Waititi did an excellent job with this war satire. As a comedy it's just genious, the mockery of the Germans or more specifically the Nazis, the satire just drips off it for the entire movie. Making fun of one of the greatest tragedies ever, it's delicate and doesn't work all the time, but in this movie they just laugh about anything and everything, sometimes subtle and sometimes very obvious. I thought it was great and I won't be the only one thinking like that. The cast was top notch. The young Roman Griffin Davis did a great job playing that little Hitlerjungend Jojo. The imaginary Hitler played by Taika Waititi was a great addition to this story. The whole cast added everything needed to make Jojo Rabbit one of the better movies of 2019. If you need to relativize life a little bit, if you like to mock Nazis, Jojo Rabbit is what you need.
