Rise of Evil Review

In my opinion, the movie Hitler Rise of Evil was a very informative movie, it was very accurate and gave some great insight to me. I thought the costume design was very accurate and good, as well as the portrayal of the lifestyle of back then. One thing I found with this film is that I found it to be accusative of many people in the film. It makes the whole thing seem as though everyone was completely brainwashed by Hitler and that everything was entirely his fault. Although he had a great deal of power and influence, he could not have done what he did without people who chose to believe in him first.

If I had to summarize this film in three sentences I would say it opens with a determined young Hitler. Hitler rapidly gains popularity, as well as a few enemies. Hitler has control of everything he needs to proceed with his plans, and is very well on his way there.

I learned many things from this movie, but I think the most important one is how he manipulated and persuaded people to do what he wanted. How he pressured President Paul Von Hindenburg into giving him political power. How he was able to get away with murder, because before I had seen the movie I thought majority of the people did not want to side with him but it was more of a do or die situation, but from what I have seen, there was a bit more of a mutual feeling throughout Germany, Austria and those other countries about the Jewish population.

I liked how real the movie felt, there was a mood about it that seemed very true to the era. I liked the reactions to Hitler the many different characters had, some were fond of him, others weren’t, but if they made it obvious that they weren’t fans, they wouldn’t have such a happy ending. What I didnt like about the Movie was how insane they made Hitler look from the start, yes, he was a mad man, but he wasn’t always that way. If he had been then who would have followed him. The whole film was also built to be a

    Valkyrie

    I watched “Valkyrie,” starring Tom Cruise, a movie that depicts the plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler during the height of World War II. It brings to light the events leading up to the assassination, as well as its aftermath. The failed July 20th attempt led to the execution of around 5,000 Germans, ordered by Hitler. Although World War II was not impacted very heavily by it, the war certainly would have been had the attempt been successful. Because of the armistice that would have been signed, nine months of war could have been avoided and hundreds of thousands of lives could have been salvaged. The attempt shows the world that not all Nazis were evil; some followed their conscience rather than Hitler’s orders. People should either watch the movie or research about the attempt; they need to know how brave the conspirators were and how much they were willing to sacrifice for the greater good. Of the fifteen assassination attempts made on the Fuhrer, this one came the closest to succeeding.…

    By making connections to the text, Resisting Hitler, I am able to further my understanding of how the characters feel and where their motivation comes from. When watching on TV about all those rebellions around the world in the past years and even now, it isn’t that hard to see the fire that sparks in the people’s eyes. I automatically see their energy and motivation within them, that drives them to do whatever it takes to get their opinion across, even if it means dying. By being able to realize the reality of wanting something so bad, I can understand how Helmuth did everything he could to go up against Hitler.…

    I looked up some reviews on the movie this weekend and saw that in some way it distorted history. Those people who said that weren’t alive when all of this happened so how would they know what happened or didn’t happen. I don’t know why people would dislike this movie, in my eyes it is one of the best historical movies I have ever seen. Also I was not alive when this happened either but I believe that these actions showed were true.…

    The film is based on the memoirs of Wladyslaw Szpilman, this is a true story of what this man went through during Hitler’s reign. I feel like the plot of this film immediately sets it up to convey the information in a factual but emotive way, although because it is a memoir it also leaves it open to withhold a lot of information that might not be know and because they didn’t want to make parts of the story up they left the audience with quite a few unanswered questions.…

Hitler became known to the German people the leader. He believed that the German nationality was a superior race. Like other fascist governments, he waged endless war against the Jews, Roma, Slavs, and other nationalities that he considered to be inferior.…

    He monitored and basically controlled every aspect of the news. Hitler controlled the news and radio stations and said what can be said and what needs to stay a secret. Instead of saying what was really happening to the Jews, Hitler brought up political and economic fears to distract everyone. Also,when he harshly rounded up the Jews and put them in ghettos, he told the rest of the world they were going to better places to get a fresh start and jobs, when in reality he was killing them. Hitler would take the sick, elderly, and young children to extermination camps and all the others to concentration camps to work as slaves.…

    He did many things that were wrong and actually hurt many people, but to him it felt like he was doing the right thing. Mainly, because he thought "The very first essential for success is a perpetually constant and regular employment of violence"(Adolf Hitler Quotes). This was a quote that represented him greatly, because his success was based on violence that, he caused thinking that all what was happening to Germany was the Jews fault. He would always say the struggle for what is happening in the world dominant will be fought entirely between us, between Germans and Jews. Everything else is illusion. Behind England stands Israel, and behind France, and behind the United States. Even when we have taken all of Jews of Germany, and remains our world enemy. His childhood, ambition, and beliefs where each a great impact in all of his actions towards all of society. He was always paying attention that no one would try to be better than him, he was the one and only and no one can do anything to change…

    First, Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 in Austria. His father dies in 1903 leaving young Adolf and his mother, his mother didn’t seem to be a strong influence on Adolf because he started failing school and eventually in 1905 left the conventional school system all together. In 1907 his mother died, he dreamed of becoming a famous artist so he moved to Vienna where he enrolled in the famed Academy of Fine arts. He was denied admission so he tried again the next year and was again denied. That started his period of deep depression where he left his friends and society. While he was in his own world so to speak he found fascination with the idea of mass political manipulation. Following in the footsteps of Vienna Mayor Karl Lueger he developed extreme anti sematic feelings (anti Jew feelings). This was in essence the beginning of the Nazi party. In early 1913, he returned to Munich Germany, a year later he volunteered in for the German army in the fight against Europe and America. He earned the rank of corporal and then was never promoted past that, he also won awards for bravery and among those the highly respect iron cross (Adolf Hitler…

    Night and Fog

    • 589 Words

    I must say that this film is very traumatizing. There are some images in this film that will be burned and scarred into my mind for as long as I live. I have seen many holocaust films, but no one was as near as dramatic and depicting as Night and Fog. However I did like the theme of this movie. It is very sad but yet realistic. Our minds are murky and dull. We tend to only remember the important situation in our lives. Yet we don't remember the importance of our own history. I say OUR history be cause we all are human beings on this earth. Whether we believe in Allah, Jesus, Jehovah, or whatever higher power, we are all one race, and that the human race. It is very sad to know that human beings were treated and slaughtered just because of an ideology of superiority complex. Al though the Jewish people were massacred I learned that we must always keep a sense of hope in order to assure our own survival. When I saw in the movie the moments where there were journals that read about favorite foods and important dates, my heart was filled with sadness. Not because these victims didn't have this to eat but because of the false illusions that they had to dream in order to stay sane.…

    It opens with caricatures of the Axis powers marching up and down the street singing a song about how much they love the “Fuehrer”. Everything, even the farm animals, heil Hitler. Donald Duck is depicted as a worker in nazi Germany, reading Mein Kampf over a breakfast of wooden bread and a single coffee bean dipped in water. He goes to work in a factory making shells and constantly heiling Hitler. Donald works nonstop with no breaks before waking up in his own bed in good ol’ America. The purpose of the film was to portray life in Germany as it actually was. Hitler described it in his speeches as the greatest country in the world, a paradise for the people he deemed worthy. Obviously, he was not telling the truth. Nazi Germany was unpleasant at best even for aryan…
