Audience Member Extraordinary performance by young Nicolas Vogel grounds and elevates "The Inheritors" into a very powerful film. Thomas (Vogel) is a lost teen, failing at school and physically abused by his psychopathic mother. After a chance encounter with another delinquent he's drawn into a burgeoning community of neo-Nazi youth. The film shows the inner workings of Austria's extreme right wing. Frightening without being preachy or heavy handed, the film has a great unpredictable plot. Without Vogel's stunning performance "The Inheritors" could have been just another artsy homoerotic European coming of age film. But the lead is intense and understated, at times you forget it's not a documentary. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Right wing neo-Nazi organization in Germany preys on disillusioned youth to build their ranks. Not a feel good story but I'd be looking for a way out too if I had a mom like Thomas. Has brief but surprisingly graphic sex scenes involving teens. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Impressionable youth finds sense of belonging in a neo-Nazi group. A film that demonstrates how a young person with troubles can be lured to a radical cause under certain circumstances. German film with bad dubbing to English takes away from overall effect but worthwhile overall.
