This has to be the best film I have ever seen. The portrayal of the completely loony Hitler is a masterpiece. However, we do see that he was not without a sensitive side, despite being corruptingly evil.

The sound effects of the film will be lost away from the cinema and if ever a film had to be seen on the big screen, this is one. The performances by all the actors are superb bar none and I would certainly give an oscar to the guy who played Hitler. Mr and Mrs Goebels are also masterful and chilling.

This portrayal of the last days of the 3rd Reich must be the most challenging and thought provoking film for many years and Prince Harry might not be so keen to wear the Swastika if he sees it.

Please go and watch this film. You will be left speechless.

In what sense was I not left speechless? Are you classing the written word as speech?

I don't usually do thought-provoking films. They tend to make me think too much.

It does sound good though.

It has been known for people to write a speech. If you leave it behind prior to a talk-you would be speechless!

It sounds a boring film to me so I will give it a miss.

But then you're shallow.

That sounds so arrogant Bounty. Lou is NOT shallow. Just cos you're wetting your knickers about the film doesn't mean it appeals to everyone.

I had tears in my eyes a minute ago, honestly.

The film does sound interesting to me, to be fair. It is just that I have trouble puting that key down.

I asked 6 people today if they thought of me as shallow and they all said no.
