First half 'OK' second half 'RIDICULOUS'

Rating: 3/10 (16 July 2013)

I'm a big fan of IMDb and I was really excited to watch this movie as it was rated at #55.
When I finally had a chance to watch this movie, I was really disappointed.
I've seen many holocaust movies like The Pianist, schindler's list etc, considering the good reviews for this movie, my expectation level was really high but I'm afraid this movie did not meet my expectation.
The so called comedy of the lead character just made me laugh at few places, apart from that there is nothing in the first half and second half was very disconnected.
I was just wondering what made the female lead to fall for this clown? nothing was properly established in the movie.
Half way through the movie, story takes an sudden twist and travels to Nazi & JEW problems of WW2.
Here are few scenes which were really artificial 1. The female lead commanding the German guy to stop the train and ask her to let in and he immediately does.
2. The male lead and his kid roaming around the Nazi concentration camp very freely.
To summarize, the first half of the movie was just 'ok', second half was ridiculous.
My rating 3/10
