  • New Zealander channels Charlie Chaplin and Mel Brooks with story of a Hitler Youth trainee and his imaginary best friend Adolf Hitler, played by the director
  • The most irreverent anti-war satire in years, it repeatedly ridicules fanaticism. It could not be more relevant with far-right extremism again on the rise
