Boring, but one the bright side, It DID inspire an internet meme.

I'm not sure where the value is supposed to be in a film like this. Personally, I found it interesting to get this perspective--it illuminated the level of insane idealism and self-deception required to fuel support of Hitler when things got unbelievably bad. But it didn't make me understand them, or their feelings or choices.

a brave film. the level of dramatization is perfectly set, so that it doesn't degrade the authenticity of the real events. it tackles on some serious subjects about how evil is a state of mind, and how people will get entangled with cruel ideologies given the right frame of consequences. Top drawer acting from entire cast keep the movie believable, even through some truly blood chilling moments.

many films deal with World War II, Nazis, and/or the Holocaust, but this is the only film I have seen that puts you in the heart of Hitler's government and stays there there the whole movie. All your characters are in the bunker with Hitler and so for better or for worse this movie does something few have dared to do: humanize the Nazis. I think this is a terribly important thing to do, and the result is quite provocative and moving. There are also some worthwhile performances here. Check it

Join Hitler in the Bunker in this lighthearted romp. Fun for the whole family, if you are trying to convince them to join your suicide pact.

The most powerful aspect of this film is that it portrays those responsible for one of the worst genocides in the history of mankind as human beings, and attempts to put human faces on monsters. You *almost* feel sympathetic for Hitler when he shows compassion to his secretaries and the young children (of Goebbels). You're slapped back into reality when Hitler dictates his political testament, however.

Engrossing look into Hitler's final days. Based on a novel written by an eyewitness to the events. Recommended.

Why did the filmmakers feel that they had to improve history? Hitler kissing his bride in front of his generals? Goebbels shooting his wife? Good scenes and performance by Ganz but these idiotic liberties with historical facts kill it. `

Mostly very powerful and effective but at times drags a bit. It works well primarily thanks to Bruno Ganz's unforgettable performance. Chilling.
