Realistic view of war
You can compare this WWO2 movie with the style of Dunkirk. That means that the movie is not for everyone, but if you can appreciate this kind of movies, it’s magnificent. The movie doesn’t want to be a hollywood blazing brainless action movie, but wants to portrait the germans on an individual level. Like @barta-46978 says, the movie is about authority and gives yourself an insight in what it must have been at the time, and even how you would react in the given circumstances. The movie is explicit and kind of shocking. It really intrigued me, we need more movies like this.
Interesting, novel WW2 drama
Germany, April 1945. WW2 in Europe is almost over, resulting in mass desertions and disorder in German ranks. One deserter, Willi Herold, is on the run when he comes across the abandoned uniform of a Luftwaffe captain. Impersonating a captain he gathers together a rag tag group who assume the role of an anti-deserter/looter task force. Things come to a head when he is given responsibility for a camp where deserters, looters etc are detained, with dire consequences.Interesting WW2 drama, based on a true story. Quite novel in that it doesn’t involve any confrontation with the enemy (well, except for one scene): the struggle is all internal. Also covers areas of WW2 that don’t get much attention: the post-apocalyptic-like final days of Nazi Germany, the treatment of deserters etc and this series of events in particular.
Plot is reasonably engaging, though a bit too drawn out. It could also have been more powerful: despite the events portrayed it really didn’t feel that gritty or shocking. Everything just seems to happen, sometimes as if in slow motion. Maybe that’s the effectiveness of the film: by the time you reach the critical moments you’ve become desensitised to all the killing, anarchy and atrocities. Still, it felt a bit flat to me.
Great performance by Max Hubacher in the lead role. Solid supporting cast.
Worth watching for a different angle on WW2. Not a must-see though.
