Reviews (2)
A Jew, Hitler and Stalin all go into a bar... Or in this case, they come out of a show and show how it is with that German (non)sense of humor. And it fits nicely into the wave of German cinema through which the Germans have uncompromisingly dealt with its skeletons in the closet in recent years.

Hotel Lux is a great movie and it proves that not only is German cinematography up and coming, but it does a great job of reflecting on times past, which is something I have seen in other German movies as well. Michael Herbig is a great actor and every time I see him, he immediately improves my mood. His actor character was really great and the plot itself provides an excellent comparison of a fascist and a communist. Apart from it being a very good comedy, it’s also a pretty interesting movie, which is definitely worth seeing because it will allow you to think about World War II from a different perspective.
