Diagonaldi Very well executed

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

spades-65703 A movie, may be called a classics for the genre of parody. It has a good budget, spent due to the aims of filming, not fore a sake of one's pocket, well detalized in images and dialogs, with a great idea in the final. Despite any jokes it shows the real nature of any war: somebody dies on the front line, somebody enjoys life and makes money. As well, contains a lot of satire on modern russian bohemia.

ufsb It's very hard to sum this movie up. If you think of cinema as a conscious process, then you'll find this movie quite bad: the green-screen effects suck, the acting is bad, the jokes are flat and unfunny, the story is nonexistent and could be retold in a single sentence, the musical segments are way too long. But, by trying to bring contemporary Russian culture into the Third Reich (for example, Schurenberg and Garik talking about money laundering schemes; all the office work jokes; Russian celebrities) the authors have unconsciously spawned something truly post-modern, an unaware auto-portrait of the nation.

Taburetka13 If you are not familiar with Russian pop culture you will not get anything out of this movie besides grotesque scenes of action and bizarre dialog. In reality this movie pays a great homage to the old soviet spy movies. Especially the cult spy series "twelve moments of spring", from which it borrows most of the characters. It is also relentlessly pokes in the most satirical way at todays new Moscow corporate Russia, by presenting it in the form of the third Reich. This movie is comedy genius. Great selection of actors, with some Russian comedy heavy weights. I struggle to see how anyone non Russian would get what the movie is about. But if you watch it, don't judge it as it is not made for the Western audience.

writeagain Looking for Western analogies to "Gitler Kaput!" won't lead you further than to the latest silly parodies of "Meet the Spartans" sort. But in this case a parody ("Semnadtsat mgnoveniy vesny" (1973)) is just a skeleton, and the meat is Russian pop-culture, pop-music, popular jokes, all sorts of silly internet memes. So you don't have to be a cinephile to enjoy this movie like you do in Hollywood parodies' case. Just watch and listen like you do in circus. Busty beauties, special effects, acrobats in nazi uniform but incoherent in each and every detail - sorry if it's not your cup of tea. Don't expect too much from a trash comedy, which is a pretty new genre in Russia. One can only wonder if it matures in the years to come.
