Critics Consensus

Jojo Rabbit's blend of irreverent humor and serious ideas definitely won't be to everyone's taste -- but either way, this anti-hate satire is audacious to a fault.

Film Companion

Combining a tragedy of this proportion with humor, even if it is satirical, is a precarious tightrope walk that director Taika Waititi performs with panache.

Surprisingly charming take on such a heavy subject matter. Taika's a great director and the cast is excellent as well. Pretty funny throughout with the occasional too-on-the-nose gag. Highly recommended!
