[@Iam_Stu]

The bit with the captain and Freddy wearing their custom uniforms really stands out to me, they've both got pink triangles on their uniforms that the Nazis used to put on gay people who were shipped to the camps. So it was definitely them being out and proud in their last moments.

[@CodeeXD]

​@Ben Franklin yeah and they established that despite losing an eye captain K was still a crack shot. So he was very intentionally missing but still "fighting for his country"

[@maiorciprian]

also notice they`re both firing their guns in the air so not actually fighting

[@B3RyL]

That was one of my favourite moments of this movie and beyond. Just a pure, unfiltered, unrestrained, giant "FUCK YOU, I'M HERE!" addressed to the entire world. What a cathartic moment.

[@engagingathena9965]

i never noticed that 🥲

[@calmbeast1329]

To be proud of being a freak...wow😂

[@quiett6191]

The constant "heil hitlers" scene went from humorous to incredibly tense. One of the greatest tone shifts I've ever seen in a movie.

[@bidishah]

Absolutely brilliant! Stephen Merchant was perfectly cast

[@Bookworm8793]

That's one of my favorite moments. The repetition is so absurd and funny, and then Elsa has to say it and suddenly it's not funny anymore.

[@danielcarter94]

It’s also how loaded the Heils were, like they were being judged by their salutes.

[@fyfyi6053]

Right... and how many more Naughtzi films does Hollywood have to make till we finally get to all the... "wonderful" things that communists were doing do Christians?

[@fyfyi6053]

[@mregobuster]

I saw this film in theaters right before quarantine by literally a month. People were still cautious so It was me and 2 other people in the theater. It was a couple, and like them, I didn't really know what I was getting into. Afterwards, I turned to them and both were in the sad/happy emotional state I was and I said "Do you want to get a drink?" We went to a bar and discussed this movie for over 2 hours. Both of them are friends of mine to this day.

[@cristycoronado1279]

That is so cool

[@chamachell0]

Wow thats such a cool way to make friends.

[@willmoffett9929]

Making friends randomly in the real world is so much better than online.

[@engagingathena9965]

yeah i saw this film in cinemas too. a big group of friends and we weren’t expecting that. one of the best experiences

[@renzero9206]

"Why are they showing just her feet?" Oh man, when you said that, I was "Just wait." When that reveal happens, I don't blame you two. I lost it too first time I saw this. Without doubt, one of the greatest films I've seen. Masterclass of writing (sooo damn funny and next scene your eyes are like waterfalls), directing and acting by ALL the cast. ScarJo is amazing as always, Rebel Wilson is hilarious (as is Taika), the kids were awesome, and Sam Rockwell is fantastic. Glowing 10/10 film.

[@paulweston8408]

The director said that he only showed her feet because we haven't earned the right to see what JoJo saw. It was the worst moment of his young life and what he saw was just for him. ps- he didn't mean it in a rude way. It was just too personal for the audience to see.

[@miigi-p4939]

​@@paulweston8408thats fine with me It also makes it seem like the movie is trying to spare us or distance ourselves from it as if his mind doesnt want to think of it and is trying to just pay attention to the shoes

[@DerMoerpler]

@@paulweston8408 Honestly, I love that choice. Shooting it like that works better for this movie than fully showing the hanging corpse. I feel like it hits way harder this way.

[@Cadinho93]

Jojo: "What did they do?" Rosie: "What they could." Rosie (as Papa Lion): "Take care of my Rosie. She's doing what she can." Those lines and the repeated shots of Rosie's shoes foreshadow her death. It took me several watches to pick up on that. This is a very well-written, beautiful movie.

[@PetrolPatrol]

On my second time watching I noticed the focus on her shoes and the tying scenes so much! Like when she's dancing on the wall next to the bicycles and so her feet are at eye level for Jojo, the same as when he finds her in the street... So clever!

[@axlm.808]

@@PetrolPatrol That movie is a perfect example of setup/payoff on so many levels

[@Bookworm8793]

"Jojo Betzler. Ten and a half years old. Today, just do what you can."

I actually worked on this movie as a Post Production Producer!! I'm so excited you guys are watching it, I haven't watched the reaction yet but I am looking forward to see what you guys think!

[@ContrarianCorner]

I spent a dozen years doing post-production in Los Angeles. I worked on many big movies but, unfortunately, never was involved with anything this good. All those horribly long hours would have actually been worthwhile if they had resulted in a film like this. You're fortunate to have worked on such a gem! Best of luck going forward.

[@bidishah]

So cool! Absolutely love this movie

[@5calambres]

Good job Vincent! I never was a fan of war movies but this one became one of my favorite movies. And you contributed to it. Greetings from switzerland.

[@georux6783]

If true... awesome job.

[@moozstreams9680]

Well done mate, it's an amazing movie!!

[@Pxtwny_chill]

Taika Waititi is a legend for bringing us this movie! There was some backlash because certain people thought humorizing Adolf Hitler was a slap in the face to the millions of people who suffered under his regime... but if an ethnic man playing him in a film and absolutely mocking him doesn't sound like Hitler's nightmare to you than idk what does 😂

[@GaunteroDimmm]

I guess no one watched The Producers 😂

[@cubdumpster5422]

I also enjoy that he *actively* wanted to remain ignorant about anything accurate about how hitler would actually look/behave/etc. Hitler doesn't deserve accuracy of his character, only a mockery.

[@MBIRTIRoma]

Nobody understands satire anymore

[@MalcolmWolf]

Not only is Taika "ethnic", he is also half Jewish, further adding to that nightmare 🙂(It was his Jewish mother that first introduced him to the book this movie is based on)

[@itsginofelino]

@@MalcolmWolf everybody is ethnic. its interesting that you mean foreign by it....

[@ScooterSkillsYolo]

One of the best films ever made. That one scene absolutely broke me and everyone else who watched it. I had no idea it’d be as deeply moving as it was. Fantastic reaction!

[@Tzipiii]

@@kevincline3624 it's not pro-natzi tho? the "h*tler"character is awfully stupid.

[@austinferrell4921]

​@@kevincline3624it really makes a somewhat dark comedy type of way but I'd pick downfall as a realistic ww2 type of film since jojo rabbit makes Adolf all goofy and ridiculous in his way.

[@lamsmiley1944]

@@kevincline3624this isn’t a pro Nazi film, what are you on about?

[@REChronic54]

Jojo Rabbit feels like a movie that’s meant to be a classic. Something you rewatch every couple of years like Forrest Gump.

[@AlejoConejo-vb8ln]

AGREED

[@sonnyrockwel1266]

The moment JoJo Finds his mothers body had just one word scripted "No"". Literally had me bawling like a babe in the woods. Very effective Storytelling, Im still bawling .Felt very personal like she was my own mother, Scarlett Johansen was amazing ❤

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

The fact that Hannah early in the reaction really noticed how much they were focusing on the shoes and she said something about it being an artistic choice. Saying this while having no clue what was coming later ... O_O

[@lilscenechick1995]

I cry every time I see it because even if you were expecting Rosie to get caught, the realization happened so unexpectedly it was a solid gut punch to the feels.

[@warrenpoultney8215]

@@lilscenechick1995 Absolutely was a 'gut punch'., For me I had never felt genuine grief in movie as I did with that one scene.

[@endless013]

Niagara Falls, then I watched it again and I Broke when I caught it. They find the hanged bodies the mother said "they did what they could", then the "father" says "she's doing what she can", they foreshadow her hanging way early, then at the end Jojo book ending the movie and completes the character arc by once again looking in the mirror and this time saying "Just do what you can".

[@pia91]

that's what Taika does best, making you cry, laugh and then cry for a completely different reason all within 5 minutes. His films are freaking gems!

[@coreym0]

ScarJo got a well deserved Oscar nom for this role. Taika won the Oscar for best adapted screenplay which was also deserved as the writing in this was just stunning.

[@JonCombo]

Think she needed more screen time to be a contender.

[@coreym0]

@@JonCombo Anthony Hopkins won for silence of the lambs with just 8 minutes of screen time. Judy Dench for Shakespeare in Love with 16 minutes. So it’s possible haha

[@JonCombo]

@@coreym0 I don't think she showcased enough though. This movie felt more ensemble to me.

[@GaunteroDimmm]

I guarantee every man who watched this movie who could call his mother absolutely did. I watched this with my mom and sister and immediately after the movie I turned to my mom and gave her the most love filled hug and told her I loved her. I turned back into a little boy…..I’m 26. Not ashamed to admit it.

[@glyngasson8450]

In case nobody mentioned it, the actor playing Hitler also wrote and directed the film. Loved your reaction

[@axlm.808]

Who's better to play Hitler than a Jewish/maori guy? Also, he didn't do any particular research on Hitler to impersonate him because, in his won words "f*ck this guy"

[@leesloan8216]

he wrote the screenplay, it's derived from a book, caging skies.

[@Rocketwm]

Captain Kelnzendorf definitely knew about inga being dead, the line “get a new picture you look like a ghost in this one” ( or something along those lines) really hits me hard. Underneath that harsh exterior he really was just trying to help their family the best he could.

[@marcharley6465]

I didn't watch this film for many months because I didn't think that Nazism in Germany was a subject for humour. How wrong I was. It's an excellent film and the balance of humour, drama and morality is perfect.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

Just goes to show to not let prejudices get the better of you.

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

This movie has so much heart and somehow manages to balance the comedy and seriousness of what was going on during this time in history. Really brilliant movie... There was a fine line they couldn't cross when making fun of certain things, but they never did. Saw this last year and it's one of my favorite movies out there. Also, Jojo's mom said she never looked a tiger in the eye? That's not true, she looked the Nazi regime (tiger) in the eye trying to help people. The guy that covered for Jojo and the Jewish girl knew something happened to the mother, so he rushed over there after he found her bike without her. When he comes in the door, you can see it with him. He came to cover for them and to protect her kid not knowing about the Jewish girl. You could see the surprise on his face seeing her for the first time. Edit: I was like you both as well at the start of the movie! I had no idea what the movie was truly about and when I saw swastikas and AH, I was in absolute shock. But the storytelling was perfect and this was written by the actor that played AH (Taika Waititi). He wanted to see a movie from a kid's perspective, because he had never seen a film like that.

[@polina_pr]

one of my favorite movies ever! I think it’s so incredibly clever, touching and hilarious at the same time! and the acting is amazing (especially the kid who plays Jojo). loved your reaction, guys, how emotional and invested you get with films like that is why I follow you ♥️

The timing of you saying "This movie makes you almost cry, and then is like, no, no, I'm gonna make you laugh... aaaand NOW you can cry" being IMMEDIATELY followed by what I can only describe as one of the saddest scenes in recent memory, was serendipitous 😂

[@lordskysixss]

[@ismailchettfour2721]

This is hands down one of the best movies I have ever seen. The way it brings out so many emotions and tells the story through the cinematography is just incredible

[@lilscenechick1995]

That reveal with Rosie's shoes dangling into frame has to be the most powerful, ingenious uses of visual storytelling I've seen in film. We (as the audience) didn't need anything explained to us. We knew immediately what happened to her and why. It was such a gut-punch, too. I love this film so much, it deserved all the awards.

[@Fakeaorta]

I remember the whole theater with a noticeable gasp, followed by a "No" then tears from almost everyone.

[@kateanderson8551]

This was so devastating, I’m crying watching you guys crying

[@yulimoonshine]

I would like to also state, as a former Jewish refugee who came to the US out of political asylum and has this history...my favorite aspect of this film was the character Elsa. In Holocaust related cinema and storytelling, it is not often that Jewish people are highlighted as fully fleshed out characters. Rather, it is mainly focused from the perspective of the "righteaous gentile" narrative. And when doing this, especially with such traumatic generational trauma as the Shoah for us, what gets lost are the Jewish characters. We get often put into the backseat of our own stories. We are at worse, window dressing and are just seen as these souls of perpetual suffering without showcasing anything deeper than a characature. Why I love Shoah films like Jojo Rabbit, 1945, Iti Smotri or Come and See (an amazing foreign film I highly reccomend), The Book Thief, Defiance, and The Grey Zone (and Hunters TV series) are that you see Jewish characters as complex, messy, and outwardly human. These are other works I highly reccomend. Elsa is one of my favorite Jewish characters in Shoah films because she subverts EVERYTHING Jojo is taught Jewish people to be. She is a strong, stubborn, intelligent, cunning, beautiful 17 year old girl who is artistic and doesn't allow him to put her in a box of what antisemitic rhetoric tells him to believe. She has obviously had severe trauma losing all her family and her fiance but at the same time has such a strong ability to hope. She doesn't let Jojo's bigoted and limited views throughout the film take away her humanity. And in doing so teaches him all the rhetoric were lies. I truly love this film so much and I really enoyed your reaction! I hope you consider some of the above reccomendations I shared. Thank you for the beautiful video and have a beautiful day!

The camp the boys went to were real. My Opa and uncles were sent there. At meals, there was a clipboard with a piece of paper on it. An officer would walk up and down watching to see who put their names on it and who didn't. This is how my uncle's "volunteered". They thought they were signing an attendance sheet. My Opa refused to sign. At the end of the camp, the boys who signed went home, while the boys who didn't were sent to another camp, for reeducation to be good Germans. People forget that the first country the Nazis invaded was Germany.

I mean....THAT famous scene right after you've had the conversation about the film having you on the verge of tears and then making you laugh again and then bringing you all the way back again? Perfection! I still cry everytime. The whole thing is UTTER perfection!Q and kudos for being so perceptive and noticing the little nuances, that the "gay nazi" was, in fact, gay, and told him to "stay home and take care of his family" because he already knew FYI: unlike the SS or SA or other....installments, where you actively applied and went in voluntarily, the Hitler Youth wasn't an option. Neither was the "Volkssturm" ("people storm") at the end of the war, where they literally forced octogenerians and young kids to fight a losing fight at gun point, especially in the big cities like Berlin, Russians and Americans already bombing and shooting their way through. My grandfather was 15 when the war ended and they made him dig trenches at the western front when he was 14 for the soldiers there, so...yeah. just a little background info for you there.

Taika is the master of "happy sad" cinema. I know I'm not a patreon, but would highly recommend some of his other movies in this same context (both diving into a child's perspective as well). "Hunt for the Wilderpeople" and "Boy." He also has an absolutely hilarious mockumentary called "What we do in the Shadows" about the daily going ons of vampires flatting together in New Zealand. As always, love your work guys

One of the best films I have ever seen. We saw it in the cinema and the scene where you see Rosies shoes everyone just went quiet, everyone was stunned. There are so many details in this film, for example the propaganda you see was based on real stuff that was used at the time. Also the final scene where you see Captain Klenzendorf the cloak he is holding was the one that Finkel had been wearing earlier. They were a couple although it was illegal at that time. There are so many little details in this film that make it brilliant, Taika is a genius and all the cast were amazing.

[@soulscyther666]

That was a serious gut punch when the mom's feet was shown hanging. And another punch when Jojo cannot untie her shoes to remember her by. Anyway, if you want another emotional war effects on the perspective of children, try watching Grave of the Fireflies. It's an anime and it's good.

You're the first reactors to really recognize that this is the war through Jo Jo's eyes. My mother was born and raised in Nazi Germany, and she was Jo Jo's age at the end. My Grandfather was conscripted into the Wehrmacht and never came home. To this day my mother says that the happiest day of her life was when the American tanks rolled into town - just as we see at the end of the movie. I'm proud of my German heritage - in part because they were among those who didn't want to be Nazis. But also so very sad at what they wrought against the world and all of the people. But I am American too, and I fell in love with an American girl who I met in Germany - when I was a soldier there myself. But she just so happens to be of Jewish heritage! Funny how things work out...

[@dgillphotos]

Amazing. A friend of mine dragged me to see this in a small theater. I was blown away. I have watched it a few times since and many reactions. My favorite line is "Germany won." They didn't win the war of course but the people won - they won. He also doesn't want her to leave. There are a few videos about the making of the film. What I love about great film making is the care and thought of the cast and director to do the right thing with the story. This story had the potential to go awry rapidly - but it doesn't. I think I heard Scarlett Johansson signed on as a passion project and she's amazing here. Stephenn Merchant and Sam Rockwell! The kid in the main role - his first major project - knocked it out of the park. Thanks for watching this!

Supposedly, his Dad went off to help in the French Resistance, and may have been killed. Great reaction guys. I cried alot faster than you did at the shoe reveal.

[@CMB21497]

This movie was excellent. It makes you feel. That's the definition of art.

[@RippanCSGO]

This is Taika's best work, he found the perfect balance between comedy and something really serious.

[@mandynewson5373]

As a Kiwi, this is a favourite & that scene, well I had the same reaction, I kept hoping it wasn't her...but my favourite Taika movie is 'Boy', it's a very Kiwi movie so not sure it's up your alley, but it has the same heart & the same moment, althought not so shocking. He makes 'Happy/Sad' movies, that pretend (maybe not the rigft word) to be comdedies but have a very sad/tragic moment, that is soul destroying for us watching from the outside, maybe because it hits too close to home in some respects, but is always a major moment for the main character and their development. His film 'Eagle vs Shark' is very indie, but bloody funny (until you realise what really happened to his brother) but thats Taika, happy/sad movies. Love your channel so much, you always make me smile. Take care, Arohanui

This movie is a masterpiece. PERFECT blend of comedy and drama with a powerful message. Funny when it can, serious when it has to, and it has a heart. Bravo Taika. I only wish Love and Thunder would have been half as good as Jojo Rabbit smh...

[@joenobody5631]

Wildly underappreciated film. Excellently executed rollercoaster.

[@OneAndOnlyMe]

This is a movie that all kids should be made to watch in school.

I'm SO glad you guys finally got to react to this! I love the amazing writing in this movie. I hope you guys can also react to similar stories like: "The Boy In the Striped Pajamas", " The Pianist", "Valkyrie", "Fury", and "Schindler's List". In regards to Jojo being in the training group...this was common at the time because after WWI Germany had signed a bill preventing them from building a proper military so Hitler made up "training/exercise camps" instead. By having camps for kids he made himself seem like more of a savior to the German people because he made sure the kids had at least one meal a day at a time when Germans were starving, nationwide. Jojo kept saying that he was ugly because Hitler had brainwashed the Germans to discriminate against the the deformed, the homosexual, and the disabled. He was afraid that his "hero" would not like him because of his scars.

[@jesses5463]

These ideas were not unique to Germans (or nazis) though. Allies: UK, US, and Russia all discriminated against homosexuals. Margaret Sanger, who is a considered a visionary and hero to many modern day American politicians believed in discrimination against deformed and disabled, and it's not like her views are without validity.

I love the bit where captain K says to Elsa "get that photo changed. You look like a ghost" - which is a clear reference to her not looking like the dead Inge and him showing he knows. Pow. I love seeing people react to the shoe scene after the blue butterfly scene - but your reaction was particularly moving. If you want to see another movie about german kids at the end of ww2, then try Lore - great film but not comedy. Weirdly, Lore is directed by an Australian. So both this film and Lore are from Down Under.

I dont think ive ever been so emotional watching a movie... This and green mile tear me up everytime! 😭 Such an underrated movie

[@gravedigger8414]

Oh come on man. Do not cut out the beatiful ending scene!!!11 This movie is just so damn good, 5 out of 5, pure love for it. Greetings from Germany. 🥰

[@thestingman2966]

I completely agree and I came here to see if anyone else commented about it. The last scene with the boy and girl dancing in the street is my favourite and I can’t believe they didn’t include it.

[@BigMike246]

when JoJo ties is mother's shoes. It is one of the most devastating moments i have experienced in any film.

[@mrkelso]

Such a pleasure when you watch a good movie, instead of trying to make your girl throw up. And this is not good, this is a great movie. You both "got" pretty much every nuance in the writing... this was an excellent reaction.

[@BigSleepyOx]

Great reaction from both of you. Jojo Rabbit was more or less tied with Parasite for my top movie of 2019. I saw it three times in the theater. Almost always results in good reactions, but yours was among the best.

[@LS-tk7hp]

you should also watch schindlers list- no words needed for that movie its top teir

[@DanGer-dw1qx]

The boy in striped pyjamas should be on the list now if you liked this similar themes again with great child actors

[@ravensdark99]

My grandfather was drafted when he was 15 back then...he used to tell me "Those bitches stole my childhood Jörn..they stole my childhood!" that chills me to this day

[@DomR1997]

One of the best movies, a true all time classic. I'm glad you guys watched this. Everyone should, at least once.

[@zethher7452]

Really great reaction video. The way you showed emotions and even were great in interpreting the scenes was really fantastic. And that comes from someone who watches each and every Jojo Rabbit reaction video on youtube :)

[@bossrohan6934]

You guys should watch Empire of the Sun. Stars a child Christian Bale and he puts on one of the best performances ever by a child. And it’s a great movie

[@MsNewsted]

That's one of my favorite movies P-51 Cadillac of the skies!

[@Neotron2001]

One of the top 5 films made in the last 25 years.

[@reddherod7677]

You guys have the exact sort of energy I always hope people when have when watching movies I love. You're both observant, energetic, sincere and very funny. Cheers to you both, your videos are awesome.
