erman k 12/20................................................................................................................................................ Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a very important movie. It portrays the maximum outcome, of a - sadly - too normal interpersonal situation, where a grandiose personality disorder, born out of deep self-hatred, and steelified by desperate surroundings, has pumped up exaggerated ambitions, in order to project out, the attached feeling of hate, from the subjects own self-hatred. This towards a certain group of victims. That is my interpretation of the title, MAX. Maximum Outcome. Storyline In the environment of war torn Germany, we find a young war veteran, Adolf Hitler. He is loaded with humiliation, shame, anger and hatred. As so many other Germans, from that period, he also finds the peace terms of Versailles, humiliating and provocative. They make all their war efforts and sacrifices at the front, useless. So Hitler wants respect and he wants revenge. Not only for him, but also for Germany and the German people. As so many other hateful veterans, throughout the bloody history of mankind, Hitler also attempts to find activities, enabling him to let off steam, and make him feel respected. And in this movie, destiny pick a Munich art dealer, who happens to be Jewish, helping Hitler out of fear, to figure out what type of activity, will help him the most. Eventually, Hitler figures out, that Art + Politics = Power. Maximum Power, naturally. His lust for power is a narcissistic effort, distancing him from his own dysfunctionality (read: self-hatred). The movie also portray the young Adolf Hitler, developing in two stages; 1. from desperation to control behavior 2. from control to dominance behavior It is an important movie, to anyone wanting to understand, why humiliation turn into violence.  I give it Top Rate and thank the entire crew, for making it happen. The humankind need many more movies in this category. They can save lives.  Michael, Denmark. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Great movie about ART and WAR with Hitler and an art collector as vessels for those ideas. Some artistic liberties are taken but in emotion it is a representation of Hitler's life Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Hitler was not sporting a mustache at all in the movie.
