7/10
The Full Hitler
3 July 2020
I've enjoyed Robert Carlyle's work very much. His acting was terrific in films like "The Full Monty" (1997) and "28 Weeks Later" (2007). I also liked his work in the TV series "Stargate Universe" (2009 - 2011). However, when I saw that Carlyle had been cast as Adolf Hitler in this production I was a bit skeptical. Well, I must admit that I was wrong. Robert Carlyle has created an Adolf Hitler that is quite manic/depressive and scary. I don't know about the historical accuracy, but the film was quite entertaining. It did have a definite TV movie look so I gave it a 7 out of 10.

I'd like to think that during the epic consumption of alcohol at the wrap party Robert Carlyle and the actors that portrayed his inner circle were induced to don their Nazi uniforms and film a re-enactment of the stripping scene from The Full Monty for an outtakes reel. If they didn't, they missed the chance of a lifetime.
