Phantom Roxas Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 I watched this in my German class, and I have to say, I hate this film. All but two characters annoy me, those being the uncle and the character, and I actually didn't care whether or not the main character survived. The fact that this is a comedy-drama set during the Holocaust does not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 The fact that this is a comedy-drama set during the Holocaust does not help. Isn't it, like, against the law to make fun of the holocaust in Germany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted July 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 It's an Italian movie. It starts off as your typical slapstick comedy, but it kind of drops that in the second half of the film. From that point on, Our Hero hides the truth from his son and keeps telling him they'll be let free if they win a thousand points since they're apparently playing a game, and the winner gets a tank. I get that he doesn't want to break the horrible truth to his son, but his "charismatic" way of doing so annoys me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Roxas Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 I tend to have a horrible habit of liking some stuff, but when you have comedy-drama set during the holocaust and the main characters are incredibly annoying and the only likable characters get little screentime, something is very wrong.

It's straight up drama. Do you realize how soul crushing that movie would be if the main character didn't have a sense of humor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 The first half is outright comedy, so it counts as a tragicomedy. I get the main character's sense of humor is meant to lighten the mood, but the lengths he go to irritate me. He has good intentions, yes, but he's annoying.
