IMDB

An epic film about the final days of Adolf Hitler, as told from the perspective of his secretary.  Hitler is paranoid and nervous as he and some of his closest staff hole up in a bunker in Berlin.
An excellent film that is long without managing to feel overly-long.  The actor who portrayed Hitler did an excellent job, as did the actress playing his secretary.  Not a fun movie, of course, but an interesting one.  The special effects were very good.  Lots of realistic looking (and they probably were real) explosions.


8/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
