I genuinely understand what this film tried to do, and I'm sure it does it pretty well. Once you get past that, you should accept that in this film nothing much happens. It has no beginning, middle or end.

It successfully shows how Germans in WWII lived what they considered normal lives through close contact with the holocaust.

If you already suspected that and can digest that idea within 10 minutes then this film will feel 1hr30 too long for you.

They give you a warning sign of the slow pace to came in the opening scene, which is some sounds and fading occurring for about 4 minutes. Take the warning.

This isn't really a movie. It's just a cynical effort to extract some more money from the Sopranos.

Really nothing much of note happens at all.

You get to see a very brief cameo of a bunch of characters at a different age than they were in the series. Not enough to know or care for them. All of the main characters aren't known to fans of the show.

The action is underwhelming and low budget.

The acting and accents are bad enough to take you out of the movie.

I'm thinking anyone who gave this a good review did so for nostalgia reasons only.

Don't even think about watching this on its own merits.

I loved this film. It was so stupid and so clever. So deep and so silly. It takes a decent amount of time, but what starts out as a comedy, then kung fu flick, turns into a lesson in life which will leave you in tears at its profundity.

The action and comedy serve their own purpose and would be enough to get a decent movie together. This film weaves them seamlessly into a solid and novel plot, though.

A multitude of concepts I've never seen mentioned, let alone explored in movies, are swirled together into something really special.

I really have no idea how a human can imagine this and then film it into reality. A visual and emotional masterpiece like you have never seen, guaranteed.

What a thing to make.
