I don't know what to say, honestly. It's like Taika Waititi took The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and turned it into a comedy.
But aside from that, there really isn't anything we haven't seen before...except for the fact that the boy's imaginary best friend is Hitler. Take that away, it's a typical story about someone questioning their ideology for the sake of someone they care about. Fortunately there is a take in the idea that's rarely explored, and that is watching someone living and breathing everyday life as a Nazi. You normally would see that in a secondary character except for that one movie I mentioned earlier.
I'm unsure if it's really worth the go or not. I'll get back on that.
In theaters: October 18, 2018
