Downfall (in German)


Rating = B+

This depiction of the final days of Nazi German in and around Hitler's Berlin Bunker is well done and manages to show two sides of Hitler — a mad man and a man who could be gentle and concerned in one-to-one situations, especially with people menial positions. But mostly he was a mad man, and one wonders why one of his generals didn't kill him months before the end.
