Audience Member Not subtle in the least, but pretty watchable, at least with the commentary by Scott Zee from The Turkey Shoot added. And actually, the film makes a very good point, one that people should have applied to Osama Bin Laudin. After the conflict has started, the "leader" is almost irrelevant. The enemy is the ideology, and it is the ideology has to be defeated, whether it's Nazism, Islam, or Communism. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Anti-Nazi fictional propaganda movie. 5 Gangsters go to Germany to kill Hitler for one million dollars. The beginning is slow and only the ending is worth watching, On wikipedia they connect this movie with inglourios basterds. Somehow the story is a bit the same. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member 4 American chowderheads go to Nazi-land to kick the stuffing out of Hitler and in the end, everyone dies! More laffs than Adam Sandler & Will Ferrell combined. A must own! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Another film from the weird cinema collection and this one is actually pretty good. About some gangsters getting out of prison back in the forties and a millionaire has put out a bounty on Hitler's head, one million dollars which the 3 gangsters tend to collect. Made during war time to build up the sprit back home, lots of war propaganda, good story line. Worth 3 1/2 stars Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A millionaire hires 3 mobsters to 'rub out' Hitler. If you like outrageously stupid movies, you'll get a kick out of this. Like "Plan 9 from Outer Space" for war movies. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member If you thought it was daring for Quentin Tarantino to completely disregard historical accuracy in "Inglourious Basterds" and change the ending of World War II, imagine making a film in 1942 that ended with Hitler getting assassinated - despite the fact that he was still alive in real life! Oh, and the only way for the movie to explain why the War II was still going on when audiences left the theater is to claim that a double took Hitler's place! This hilarious piece of propaganda is one the strangest historical curiosities a film buff could ever see as I guess it wanted to build up public morale by showing that a group of patriotic American gangsters could successfully sneak behind enemy lines and kill Hitler; Operation Valkyrie it ain't! The film is very low-budget and the first half is fairly dull, but it eventually becomes a laugh riot since Hitler (played by an actor named Bob Watson, whose unfortunate resemblance to Der Fuhrer caused him to be typecast in the role in no less than NINE films!) and his fellow Nazis are portrayed as a bunch of incompetent buffoons who look like they've wandered in from an episode of "Hogan's Heroes". And how does Hitler eventually get killed, you ask? Because the good guys shave off his mustache, so that his own troops don't recognize him, mistakenly think he's an enemy, and decide to shoot him! I couldn't make this shit up!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
