Look Who's Back is only intermittently successful.

What starts as a hilarious comedy... is becoming an authentic reflection on the possibility that a modern Hitler could rise again in the heart of Europe.

A film with irreverent humor and a surprising significance in their country of origin. [Full review in Spanish]

Definitely, 'Look Who's Back' it is an interesting and necessary film that features an excellent work of Oliver Masucci as Hitler, but it also becomes a little scattered as it progresses by its excessive length. [Full review in Spanish]

Set in modern-day Berlin, Adolph Hitler emerges from the bushes after he mysteriously manages to reanimate and soon finds himself to be a media star in a world he doesn’t understand. The idea behind Look Who’s Back is fantastic as it warns a vulnerable society to be cautious of history repeating itself. Where the movie falters is its constant transitioning from Borat-like comedy to Network-like satire to political drama. Had director David Wnendt simply picked a lane and stayed in it, Look Who’s Back could have been a brilliant comedy or satire or drama – instead, it’s a periodically impactful mishmash of three distinct genres.

Great movie just it's kinda odd that it begins as goffy comedy and ends up as kinda hard lesson, which is accurate in today's Europe
