Jojo Rabbit

gingergirl455 shared a tip "Bizarrely amusing, but very sad. Taika Waititi brings his unique sense of things to this. It definitely gives the sense of the madness of WWII."

SagesRain shared a tip "I am usually adverse to war movies, I find that most of them are thinly veiled propaganda for whichever side the movie is based on. This is an exception. Both sides are seen as very messed up, and both sides are shown to have 'good' people. It's somehow funny and very sad at the same time. Top notch movie."

RicoLoveDinero shared a tip "Heard about this movie a while back and decided to give it a chance. They really took chances making this movie and executed very well to play off such a serious topic and still bring the right amount of humor. A superb cast to go along with it also helps."

donna_thiessen shared a tip "Because I have a friend who understands this and struggles with winners and losers. A personal experience through the lens of childhood but also dose of reality."

becky_woltornist shared a tip "One of my all time faves. So funny. But it also talked about important things through a kid's perspective while Jojo wakes up to the horror of the world around him and does something about it."

adam_ziarnik shared a tip "Who’d have thought that a film following a boy in the Hitler Youth during the closing weeks of WWII would be the premise for a comedy hit? The thing is, IT WORKS! 🤣"

becca_sangwin shared a tip "I love how they used humor to tackle serious issues. If you’re ready to awkwardly laugh at how utterly stupid Nazis are, this film is for you! Taika Waititi is officially one of my favorite filmmakers."

sue shared a tip "Brilliantly written! Watched it last night and am still thinking about how well the story intertwined the horrible Nazis, a bit of history, a beautiful story of human acceptance and love, with appropriate level of comedy inserted. Highly recommended!"

robiamoha shared a tip "One of the greatest movies I have ever watched, but not going to lie I have to build some tougher skin if I ever plan on watching it again 😭"

kelly_haggerty_4138 shared a tip "Fantastic movie that makes the Nazis and their protocols look foolish rather than fierce. I especially loved the effeminate portrayal of Hitler."

kathy_stark shared a tip "Yes, it's filled with many funny & touching parts, but don't forget your Kleenex in case you cry. Me ... I don't usually cry, but this gave me an "ugly cry"."

rookierooster shared a tip "Easily my favorite WWII era movie. I'm pretty sure it was the movie of the year in 2019 and I can't think of a single movie, show or book that I enjoyed better. Taika Waititi has captured something special with this one, I will beg you to watch if you are on the fence about it."

nate_lambert shared a tip "I expected this to be ridiculously dumb, but was pleasantly surprised at how hilarious and heartwarming it is! Definite recommendation!"

natetheworld shared a tip "There is nothing so bad in this world that it cannot be laughed at. “Jojo Rabbit” delivers on this idea. In its near-perfect landing, it sticks a movie that is hilarious, endearing, and a joy to behold."

rachel_klein_1586 shared a tip "This movie made me laugh, it made me think, and it made me cry. Taika Waititi has made an incredible movie, showing the perspective of the end of World War II from the eyes of a young German boy. It is now one of my most watched movies of all time."

j_hayward shared a tip "This might be Waititi's best work to date. Such a well balanced mix of humor and tragedy that makes you feel every joke as well as every issue each character faces. Well crafted characters as well as exceptional work in cinematography by their Director of Photography Mihai Mălaimare Jr. and score composed by Michael Giacchino who's best known for his work on Up and The Incredibles! Well picked crew all around to create a well thought out story."

matthew_dubanik shared a tip "Absolutely funny and heartfelt. It's just absurd and I love it. Taika Waititi really knocks it out of the park with this over the top satire of a Nazi obsessed Hitler Youth who discovers a young Jewish girl hiding in his house."

aster_risk shared a tip "The aesthetic and comedy really help punctuate the tragedy throughout this film. You will definitely find yourself laughing, only to be punched in the gut by a moment that illustrates the brutality of the setting and time period. My husband and I bawled our eyes out in the theater. Afterward, it took us 20 minutes of silently crying and sitting in the car before we could pull ourselves together. This left the greatest impact on me of any film I've ever watched. Everyone should see it."

avery_young shared a tip "Great, just great. Taika is a genius. This movie is educational, funny, heartwarming and heartbreaking. It teaches its audience lessons and the content ironically mirrors America’s current political climate (and leader). Additionally, the movie illustrates the importance of reflecting on the past in order to build a better future for ALL."

wasitheather shared a tip "I didn't think that I would like a comedy about nazis, but I've seen the directors other movies and was a fan of his work and decided to give it a chance. I'm so thankful I did. It has become one of my favourite movies because of how beautiful the story is, and how it is able to make one of the most dark times in history hilarious without being disrespectful or tasteless. This is a most watch."

matthew_austin shared a tip "Taika Waititi is a cinema genius! It was sad, it was hilariously funny, and at the end of it all it is a promise for the good in humans to shine through in the face of atrocity, fear, and darkness."

hartley_colquitt shared a tip "I love this movie! 😋😛😝🤪🤨😆🙂🙃😉😬😮😑my favorite part was when that kid threw a knife at the tree and backfired into his leg🦵 I think the tree has a crush😍😘😘🥰😍🥰😘🥰😍😘"

olivia_shore_6869 shared a tip "i love every detail taika watiti put into this movie. hitlet through jojos eyes is funny, because pf how outrageous he was. he ate unicorn, and hitler was a vegetarian, and he smoked which he was very against. everyone was amazing. love this movie"

jl_boer shared a tip "Amazing!!!! And very comedic even for the era. The writer of the film plays Hitler and he is absolutely perfect, despite not having any acting background!!"

zoe_zamora shared a tip "I am a big Taika Waititi fan so naturally, I just had to see this. Brilliant story and a treat to the eyes from beginning to end. He has a way of playing with colors and contrast in his films that are really satisfying. A funny yet very emotional watch."

bottpop shared a tip "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I LOVE THIS MOVIEEEEEE AAAAAAAA ITS SO GENIUS. THIS IS A MUST WATCH!! okokokokok on a more serious note: a lot of people will deny to see it because of it can potentially be offensive, but there are some things to take into account. 1) the theme of this movie is "overcoming racist ideas in the world", and 2) the director who made this is part jewish... Idk idk idk just give it a thought maybee"

monique_nemchik_3833 shared a tip "I thought it was going to be funny, make fun of Hitler, stupid comedy. I cried so hard too tho. What the heck? But thank you, it’s beautiful."

mariah_ardisson shared a tip "This made me cry and want to dance. It's worth the watch and is not maybe entirely what you thought it was. It's better than what you think."

leslie_ann_9126 shared a tip "This movie is fantastic and ill remember it forever, the scenes are very artsy like Grand Budapest, and while there are melancholic scenes, this movie is overall a feel good comedy"

emmanuel_kebede shared a tip "Nice. Light hearted but can get unexpectedly heavy sometimes. Didn’t make me laugh every second but did get a handful of chuckles out of me. U can play it on the TV when family is home. Maybe not little kids but i usually don’t watch things like this by myself"

dogs_dont_quack shared a tip "An amazing movie the characters all stand out. The way it tells us this beautiful story of a boy who starts to question the nazi government is brilliant. I like how we see this boy kind of lose his innocence through the movie was genius."

andrew_pidcock shared a tip "Incredible.. Taika Waititi does it again. How do they blend silly comedy with such serious topics.. (and who knew Scarlett Johansson could act? SO GOOD in this movie!)"

alex_boyer shared a tip "One of the funniest movies in recent memory, but also hits way harder emotionally than you’d expect. Possibly my favorite movie ever."

amandaplz shared a tip "That's hard because the whole movies incredible, but any scene with Yorkie is fun. I also really like the scene where the Gestapo come to the house and "Heil Hitler". It's funny but has poignancy as JoJo is all in to protect Elsa."

missmallocup shared a tip "Its one of those movies that when it was first being promoted I didn't understand why. But I kept seeing the trailer for it and I knew I had to see it. I really did enjoy it. It had its serious and humorous moments. I actually enjoyed Rebel Wilson in it. I would recommend it."

leia_rasmussen shared a tip "#With great New Zealand humor and same director of thor ragnorok, I highly recommend this movie. It was hilarious but was also a tear jerker.#oscar_nominated"

madison_grace_4040 shared a tip "I really enjoyed the end it was just such a satisfying and heart warming conclusion. I feel like it also really helps show how jojo has grown"

jo_jadhav shared a tip "it's a hilarious satire on the absurd beliefs and propaganda proposed by Nazi Germany, but still has a distinct sentimentality to it. :*)"

brit_ratcliffe shared a tip "This movie was silly and dark and I loved every second of it. Main characters are very relateable and loveable. Hits you in the feels"

frankie_moore_6740 shared a tip "A strangely comedic take on WW2 and Nazi Germany, but don't let that fool you. This story can will have you holding back tears right after laughing at Hitler... LAUGHING AT HITLER. lol"

brittny_paul shared a tip "On the surface, this movie is just a quirky satire about Nazis. But halfway through, the tone does a 180 and will have your heart breaking."

rylee_sauve shared a tip "Beautiful composition. Fantastic cast. Great commentary on how harmful propaganda can be and how important it is to think for yourself. Massive applause to Taika Watiti for making Adolf Hitler (of all people!!) the primary comic relief without being abhorrently offensive."
