Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and little lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for people who'll be looking things up afterwards and anyone interested in what war does to ordinary people. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards. Shelve it next to Michael Collins or Born on the Fourth of July.
The mood
Intense.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 41 min.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1944: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

The Hitler Gang adopts the style of a gangster film as it charts Adolf Hitler’s rise from small-time politico to dictator of Germany.
