The impossibility of the head of state appearing again is the only thing worthy of "happiness" in this film

I originally watched it as a comedy, but I basically didn't laugh from beginning to end. The main thing is that the things expressed in it are too heavy.

The specific plot and connotation are not discussed much, and it is easy to take a seat.

The whole of Germany has been charged with Hitler for decades, and it has not dissipated until now, with far-reaching influence. The German people reacted differently to this influence, and as Hitler said at the end of the film, the Nazis still exist in many people's hearts.

Strictly speaking, this is a serious reality documentary in the guise of a comedy. The whole film uses Hitler's travels to express various trends of thought in Germany at that time, and reflects and satirizes the current situation in Germany. That is to say, in the film, Hitler is just a tool of expression and a representation of a trend of thought. And the part of the comedy is filled with a lot of absurd internet celebrity factors, which is just a reflection on the huge influence of the Internet and the rapid replacement of hot spots, and at the same time, it mocks the mercenary businessmen.

Focus on the actors, the actors who played Hitler did not have the aura or image of other actors who played Hitler, that is to say, the appearance and temperament were a little worse, but they performed a terrible sense of reality, especially when speaking in the play. Those few paragraphs make people feel that if Hitler really went back to 2014, he would have this mentality and look, and he would definitely say those words in a very provocative way, and at the same time he was very good at controlling the scene, invisibly becoming a focus. At the end of the film, when he gently waved his hand on the convertible, facing the various behavioral reactions of the people, the slightly disdainful smile on his face that was about to control everything was even more chilling. After watching the nearly two-hour film, people will unconsciously focus on Hitler. Compared with other characters, they are completely suppressed.

This is not the real war madman Hitler, this is the real Nazi leader Hitler.

Worth a look.
