Review of Downfall

Downfall (2004)
5/10
Cinematic ally "Downfall" is a non-event
6 April 2005
I found "Downfall" boring and too long. Compared to Hotel Rwanda which was thrilling and chilling, "Downfall" was neither - it was a trivial movie. Don't waste your time and money unless you really want to get the exact "who did what and how" at the end of the Reich.

But if you like historical tales, and you like to see "polite" blood and a bit of guts - this movie is for you.

The movie, like its infamous villain states about himself – has no feeling. Indeed it portrays nothing in particular about this horrific person. Other, than probably like in his personal life, he must have been quite boring.

I guess it could rate somewhat higher if it was a documentary, but it can't even qualify as that.
