Cuck (2019)
JoJo reading the letters from fake Nathan were exceptionally funny, and at the same time, poignant in the wake of the reveal.
I adored this film.
That movie looks so WesAndersonesque
Yeah.

Honestly this movie was alot better than I expected.Far from perfect, though
Corpus Christi
I wanted this movie to be an unabashed comedy about Germany that jokes about the funny and doesn't hide behind the coattails of yet another "Jew victim Nazi monster" political message, like Heio Honey I'm Home was youtube.com
Instead we got another pandering movie to add to the "could've been" pile.
Pity. They could've made this an actual fun film.
Midsommar

Jojo Rabbit Mocks Other People’s Fanaticism.
A childish exercise in self-congratulation: ‘F*** off, Hitler!’
Bad ideas are in vogue, which makes Jojo Rabbit a candidate for this week’s zeitgeist movie. It’s a two-ton whimsy about Jojo (Roman Griffin Davis), a ten-year-old German cherub during World War II, so fascinated with Der Führer, the leader of his country’s ideals, that he envisions Adolf Hitler as his imaginary friend.
As played by Taika Waititi, Funny Adolf behaves childishly and runs alongside Jojo with gangly, clown-like gestures during an outing with Hitlerjugend troops. Although given to making angry-face speeches about Aryan superiority and silly anti-Jewish pronouncements, Funny Adolf represents Jojo’s ignorance of Third Reich ideology and his pre-adolescent hero-worship.
But don’t worry, writer-director Taika Waititi, best known for the Marvel movie Thor: Ragnarok, hasn’t made Hitler a superhero on the right side of history; instead, Waititi’s calculated political correctness lampoons political idolatry as immature, low-information folly. Jojo Rabbit ought to expose the projection of fears and self-loathing that’s become the common feature of far-left ideology, but it avoids that realization and settles for being a zeitgeist satire that targets the political infatuation of others, not your own.
No wonder Jojo Rabbit won over award-season shills at the recent Toronto Film Festival, where it took the same audience prize as last year’s Green Book. Award-givers have become as obtuse as little Jojo in conflating political self-righteousness with artistic excellence. This foolishness recalls what Pauline Kael ridiculed as “Nazi junkie” movies; only now it happens with flicks about identity politics.

Underrated kino and actual best movie of 2019. Only a woman would disagree.
Waititi follows trends through a third-rate sensibility; as in his breakthrough film Hunt for the Wilderpeople, he strives toward banal idiosyncrasy in Jojo Rabbit. Its Third Reich setting is presented in deliberately artificial, childlike context, although intended to appeal to adult sophistication. Each character is lovably idiosyncratic, from innocent Jojo, his freedom-loving mother (Scarlett Johansson), and his HJ commander (Sam Rockwell) to his roly-poly best friend Yorki (Archie Yates) and the teenage Jewish savant Elsa (Thomasin McKenzie) hiding in a crawlspace inside the bedroom of Jojo’s late sister, like Anne Frank. They inhabit the brightly colored storybook compositions –Wes Anderson knockoffs, straining toward the eccentricity of Jared Hess figures.
Acclaim for Jojo Rabbit indicts our pathetic film culture that refused to acknowledge the ingenuity of Anderson and Hess’s best films (respectively The Darjeeling Limited and Gentlemen Broncos). Waititi’s simplistic view of human behavior and political history isn’t even as sophisticated as Indiana Jones’s witty cultural summation: “Nazis — I hate those guys!”
Jojo Rabbit blends the ahistorical idiocy of Tarantino’s WWII folly Inglourious Basterds with the far-left imperative to demonize through ridicule. (Nazis weren’t really funny in Mel Brooks’s The Producers, and they weren’t merely funny in Lubitsch’s To Be or Not to Be.) Waititi’s gimmick evokes the recent “punch a Nazi” meme, a feature of the #Resistance following the 2016 election. Jojo eventually outgrows his childish identification with power and rejects his demented role model (“F*** off, Hitler!”), and the childishness of this predictable, crowd-pleasing moment confirms Waititi’s unsophisticated response to contemporary political idolatry.
When will non-europeans stop making movies about WW2?
Waititi makes warped populism cute. Jojo gets his titular nickname when he runs away from a Hitlerjugend dare to kill a fuzzy wabbit — ending with a grenade accident that leaves him cutely scared and with a Forrest Gump limp. His mother advises him to be shrewd and wily like a woodland creature, and his attraction to the Jewish Elsa helps contradict the anti-Jewish rhetoric he’s heard without being able to process.
Jojo Rabbit reduces Nazism to naïve modern Hollywood morality. Even Rockwell’s “sympathetic” Nazi is conveniently gay. When he pretends to repeat ethnic calumny and suggests that “someone should write a book on the subject,” the line is so poorly planted that it seems like another snarky reference (this time to Mein Kampf); it barely registers on Jojo, who fills a drawing pad with his kindergarten daydreams about Hitler, Jewry, and his own childhood.
This mélange symbolizes Waititi’s self-congratulatory project. His sentimental ploys lack the emotional purity of the boy’s tale in Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s wondrous Young and Prodigious T. S. Spivet, and the offensive use of David Bowie’s “Heroes” is worse than merely anachronistic. Somehow Waititi mongrelizes Gunther Grass’s The Tin Drum and then fails the critique of idol-worship that made Marco Bellocchio’s Vincere — with its full-out correction of Mussolini’s impact on the romantic imagination of a subjected populace — a perfect allegory for Obama-era idolatry. Vincere is a major film that never became a great zeitgeist movie because its warning was out of step with “progress.” Jojo Rabbit is minor, but its zeitgeist appeal as childish political projection insults us all.
This is correct
Uncut Gems
So, do you have an actual argument? Or are you just going to passively aggressively call me a Nazi?
>war ends
>girl goes dancing in the street
>girl doesn't get raped to death by advancing allied soldiers
I can suspend disbelief pretty well, but that just ruined the whole movie for me.
Not him, but don't you just want a boring film with Nazi aesthetics?
this nigger mad

Eh, went an hour longer than it needed to just like NASCAR
my pick would go to OUATIH. other good films I saw last year were under the silver lake, uncut gems and a hidden life.
I liked this a lot and it is v underrated but thought there were lots of weird tonal shifts and the structure of the film could have been better planned out when they were drafting the screenplay

System crasher
Why you gotta make me feel like an uncultured plebe? I barely understood half those references
I mean, no? I enjoyed Into The White, because it didn't try to pander to the "Nazis demons" meme. Instead, it had a purpose, and didn't overvalue one side over the other. In fact, it could be argued the Nazis were more human than the other side.
In the end, they were all people fighting a war they had no real stake in.
If you want to make a movie the message of which is "Deez peepol baaaaad", it's bound to get stale after the first ten or so times.
And I gave an example of cinema I enjoyed. Heil Honey I'm Home was funny because it was irreverent to both sides. Neither were above comedy nor parody. There was no 'protected status'.
Like they say, "if you wanna know who's in charge, try to find the people you can't make fun of". If you're making a comedy movie, make it about THE FUNNY, not the bleeding politics. Coincidentally, this reminds me of that Linette shit where it wasn't a comedy but a "revolutionary form of unfunny comedy".
I'm tired.
>Make WW2 movie
>Don't show any nazis
Unironically bravo nolan.
It's meant to make you feel disoriented. The amount of gibberish White expels from his reviews only one has one purpose, to confuse.
Don't say "in terms of" - just say "cinematography"
I thought this movie was just pure comedy. All this drama fucked the movie for me.
Joker and 1917
I wouldn't say it's the worst movie I have ever seen but it sure isn't anything to write home about
This. I was watching it while being surrounded by couples and they were all gasping and horrified, kek.
I liked Parasite. Family Dynamics were fun.
Okay, not even trolling. How the fuck do you snap your fingers? I have never in my life managed to understand how its done
>Like they say, "if you wanna know who's in charge, try to find the people you can't make fun of"
While I agree with your post, dont use this quote. Its not gonna make you look anything other than a neo-nazi.
But actually some heer were Nazis and they were really wrong, morally speaking, to do what they did. Other heer we're wrong to support them. It's like working for Stalin is pretty Fucking dumb and immoral. The war they waged early on meant they would not get any quarter from their enemy, unlike ww1. Anyway, it's just obvious that one side did bad things for bad reasons and the other bad things for better reasons.
>the other bad things for better reasons
Or at least that's what they made you believe.
