Just saw JoJo Rabbit and thought it was terrific.

A hilarious quirky original film. Taika Wattiti is a genuine talent. Again, one of the best films of the year.

The Academy has done well with its nominations this year.

Just back from a well-attended screening here in the UK where the film has just opened.

I thought the first fifteen minutes or so were merely fine, but then it really hit its stride and was excellent from then on. Casting was spot-on. If I had to choose a star it’d be Sam Rockwell, but everyone was terrific and in my cinema Stephen Merchant got the biggest laughs. Rebel Wilson did very well with a limited screen-time too.

Visually it looked amazing with the era beautifully recreated.

My only real qualm with it was

Spoiler

that it implied that American troops executed newly-arrested German POWs and even grabbed an obvious young boy (Jojo) to be essentially murdered. That seemed a hell of an accusation to make.

Yeah. Regarding your spoiler it was definitely

Russian troops

Saw this back in October and it's one of my 3 favourite films of the year, alongside 1917 and Avengers: Endgame.

Last night I had a miniature Thomasin McKenzie marathon. I watched Leave No Trace followed by Jojo Rabbit.

I’ll likely be watching Jojo this weekend.

Saw this last night on Amazon Prime and was blown away by its quality. It covered such a range of emotions and the cast was outstanding. I will definitely be purchasing this on disc to add to my movie collection!
