Title: Accurate Historical Portrayal
Review: I got this movie because I wanted to get a sense of what it was like in the bunker when Adolf Hitler committed suicide. The director and producer take great pains to research the events of those final days. The bunker is recreated from architectural plans of Hitler's original bunker. The uniforms are authentically re-created. This is a good movie in that respect.However, it is not a particularly moving movie and it's not meant to be. It's meant to give a historical account and to make us think about how destructive an ideology can be. I was moved a bit during the moments when Goebbels's wife poisons her six children. It made me contemplate to what extent someone will go to be true to their beliefs.I watch Saving Private Ryan, The Pianist, Schindler's List, The Sound of Music and a few other movies over and over again. I wouldn't watch this film again as frequently, perhaps a few years later.I'm still contemplating buying the Blu Ray version if it is not too expensive.
Is the review positive or negative?
