This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

In June 2012, "Hitler: The Last Ten Days" was released on DVD in Brazil and I have just watched it. I found it boring and weird, with Adolf Hitler and his high command speaking British English. Alec Guinness is kind of histrionic and seems to be in a theater in London instead of in a German bunker. Eva Braun, performed by Doris Kunstmann, looks like a dull soap opera actress. Maybe the greatest problem is that I have seen this dated movie after watching the magnificent "Der Untergang". My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "Hitler - Os Últimos 10 Dias" ("Hitler: The Last Ten Days")

Many inaccuracies. First, Hitler and his bunker crew were German and spoke German. The actors in this film were British and Italian speaking English. The layout of the bunker is way off; it was more cramped. The entire final scene where Eva Braun and Hitler kill themselves is complete and reckless conjecture. How does anyone know what transpired between them in their final moments? Much of this film seemed to about giving a history lesson, what with some characters unnaturally giving historical background while engaged in conversations with one another. It was also awkward to have Hitler discussing the map situation, then the camera cut to a map with subtitles giving the date and how far from Berlin the Russians were — obviously not what Hitler was looking at on the table before him. The film makes Hitler out to be a bad guy, which is as it should be, but make him out to be a bad guy accurately!

Alex plays Hitler so well, I do not think anyone played Hitler as well. Maybe, tomorrow's CBS movie on this will give such a accurate portrayal. The sad part of this movie is its budget. It's done on the cheap, and is more like a play that is set in his bunker. This makes the movie a bit long. The strong acting makes up for this shorfall. Worth watching on the History Channel. 7 out of 10.

Truly on the level of "Dr. Strangelove", "Hitler..." details the last 240 hours of Mr. Schicklegruber's life. We see him surrounged by his bug-eyed, fanatical Party people (the liar Goebbles and the piglike Bormann), paralyized Army Fieldmarshalls, the SS schemer Fegelein, and the rest of the army, navy, SS, and air force hangers-on who are mostly young, drunk, and making love to the female staff. For some reason, all shots outside the bunker are monochrome (to represent reality?) while everything within those 60 inch thick walls is in a gauzy technicolor. The action is seen by a young blonde Army officer who arrives to brief his Fuehrer on his General's advance. He is made Gen. Kreb's deputy and hangs on untill the 9th night. Though him we witness the general insanity of Hitler staying on in his mangled capital, the plotting of Hitler's entorage to hide the truth from him, listening to Adolf's interminable stories, etc. In short, you get to see what sort of madness goes on when a country invests absolute leadership in one man. Hitler's rant to his three Army commanders and Bormann is hilarious as we see him scream them against the walls of his war room. Nothing comes out right for the title character, an inverted Chaplin. Hitler walks stiffly, is bag-eyed, and has a semi-useless arm thanks to the 1944 bombplot. All of these aspects, and Hitler's general character, are masterfully acted by Guiness. This film is only depressing if you are a Nazi or a Buchanan supporter; others will cheer when the credits roll. I didn't know smoking was such a central component of the failure of the III Reich...maybe tobacco company execs will use this film in an anti-anti-smoking campaign.
