The Holocaust trivialized into a self centered flick

Rating: 2/10 (5 February 2007)

Once again Mick LaSalle, movie critic for the San Francisco Chronicle hits it on the head. Mick is one of the few, non follow the leader, mainstream movie reviewers.
To me, the movie crossed the line into Hogan's Heroes territory. I felt the movie trivialized the Holocaust. The "hero" makes the great self sacrifice at the end but life was too easy in this movie.
I didn't find the humor to be uplifting or awe inspiring ie: Chaplin and/or Keaton.
And, of course, the world media went ga ga again. Roger Ebert stating that if you didn't like the movie then you were probably a right wing fanatic.
Oh well, it's now 10 years later, is this picture still a classic?
