hopelessly naive

Rating: 3/10 (16 November 1998)

Despite the rave reviews from numerous critics, this film has little to praise; its treatment of the Holocaust as a game is ludicrous, beggaring belief at almost every step. Never mind that the characters spend their internment at the cleanest, least guarded concentration camp ever seen, or that the characters are utterly empty-headed, the main conceit, that of the "game," simply doesn't work.
