This was a great take on a dark past, bringing comedy and satire to the forefront, and I absolutely loved it! While being comedic, there are many emotional parts to the film, which I was rather surprised to see. One moment you're laughing hard, the next you're on the edge of balling your eyes out. I never would have expected to see a film quite like this done on Nazi Germany, it was very well made.

With this being Roman's first-ever professional acting job, I was incredibly impressed - he is awesome, and I certainly look forward to his next project(s). He was able to capture the rollercoaster of emotions, thoughts and feelings that may be going through a child growing up in Nazi Germany—who is being told who is okay and who is not—with ease. Taika never fails to please me with his work, and Stephen is a very funny actor. The way that Hitler was mocked through Taika really adds into the thought that not everyone is as strong as they are said to be. Thomasin brings in lots of emotion, and Roman just blows the film out of the park.

Seeing it for my 7th time, I think I'd probably upgrade this from one of the best films of 2019 to one of the best films of the decade.

I shall certainly be seeing this several more times, and I definitely recommend it.

A young German Johannes (Roman Griffin Davis) loves Hitler. So much that he imagines him as his imaginary friend (Taika Waititi). He’s naive to what being a Nazi really means and the lives it ruins.
Until he meets a Jewish girl and must decide if he wants to turn her in. Which is a dilemma because his mom (Scarlett Johansson) is the one hiding her in the attic.
Instantly the best movie I saw from 2019. It’s touching, funny, charming and well acted. Also occasionally takes darker turns than you don’t expect. Which does make sense after all. Jojo Rabbit is a film about Nazis.

What an absolute joy of a film. At different times it was hilarious, absurd, poignant and inspirational. While Scarlett Johansson was at her absolute best it is the young actors that absolutely stole the show. While watching the film I couldn't help but think that all of the themes that existed back then (bigotry, jingoism, hatred, etc) that we thought were gone never really left.

I was so looking forward to it and I’m glad to say it didn’t disappoint one bit. One of the best movies I’ve seen in a while. The third act had me bawling my eyes out till the end of the credit. So much heart and soul in this movie. Can’t recommend it enough.

I thought this was such a good movie, Scarlett was such a well picked role for this film as well. Elsa Core was amazing for it being close to her first film. Just overall such a fantastic movie
