Summary

Christian Schwochow's film is a disturbingly topical dystopia, an incursion into the renewed modes and operations of the new neo-fascist youth movements in Europe and which find their replicas in other parts of the world, such as the so-called "libertarians" of Argentina. For instance. A pan-European phenomenon with TED conventions and progressive clothes and manners that will reveal, with the excuse of insecurity, his white supremacist motivations against immigrants and his vocation for power. And that raises a question: how solid do our principles stand when we become victims?

Review

After suffering a family loss, Maxi, a young student (Luna Wedler) is seduced by Karl, a young far-right activist (Jannis Niewöhnner) and introduced into a European neo-fascist youth movement.

Maxi is seduced by the beautiful Karl (a Machiavellian Jannis Niewöhnner, in a character reminiscent of the protagonist of Hater) and invites her to meet Re / Generation, an organization for "change". To what extent will someone who is processing a grief allow themselves to be used? Will it follow the path of the protagonist of the film Hadewijch, by Dumont? What ideological changes can the condition of victim produce? Luna Wedler (the protagonist of the Biohackers series) deals with an ambiguity that makes her character very interesting. The opposite of her is Alex, her father (great performance by Milan Peschel), who has other ways of processing a duel that will distance them.

Beyond some script weaknesses, Christian Schwochow's film is a disturbing foray into the renewed modes and operations of the new neo-fascist youth movements in Europe. It should be noted that the phenomenon is not limited to the Old Continent, since it finds its replica in the so-called "libertarians" of Argentina, for example.

We are far from the world of proletarian neo-fascists sons of German reunification. It is now about organizations (in this case the fictitious Re / Generation; attention with its logo) to which middle class young people adhere, many of them students, who organize conventions with TED talks and new age airs, making intensive use of social networks and who spuriously seize slogans, topics and ways of the progressive left. The mask of false progressivism does not take long to fall and show its true face, its obsession and its fanaticism: a pan-European white supremacism whose target is immigrants and which agitates the issue of "insecurity" and "change"; It is a phenomenon that does not end in watertight nationalisms because "they - immigrants - are everywhere." The film, focused on young people, leaves out of the field the economic interests that move behind and that sustain these movements and groups, very organized and with a vocation for power, and who do not repair the means to achieve it.

Je suis Karl describes a real state of affairs and goes one step further, painting a disturbingly topical dystopia.

I take the bad reviews here are due to this film either not are being understood, or that some refuse to take it in - the danger of youth wanting to change society from what it is today, maybe drastically. It's not a coincidence this film is made by Germans. It comes with a warning.

A reference to this film would be The Wave, which is filmed both by Amercans and Germans, based on a true story.

This movie starts off very interesting, and within 15 minutes I'm sold.

We see a young couple driving across the border into Germany hiding a refugee which they smuggle in. Then we wind maybe 20 years forward, where we see the same family being freak hit by a terrorist attack. And this leads to us following the daughter Maxi and father being left broken. The daughter is being approached by journalists and others, among them a very charming an pretty young man, in whom she involves.

The film is well mde, but doesn't overexplain. It's down to you as a viewer to decide what you see. I think many modern viewers watch movies while they look at their mobile phones. This makes them need aoverexplaining to get the point of a movie. They are easily confused by narratives and jumps in time.

This film gives warnings. Warnings which makes me think of the environmental movement more than nazi- or terrorist-movements, but this is fiction which comes with a warning, put into an interesting story. Just watch it with an open mind!

I rated this film 6/10 because of its sensitive and believable build up of how someone might be drawn into "the scene".

Radicalisation of any kind starts with either desperation or charm. The film builds this up slowly and sensitively, with a youth scene which is attractive and seemingly advocating a "new" right movement. This part was well handled and explained. The ending seemed glib, rushed and unbelievable. The actors were charismatic and deserve credit.

Je Suis Karl may be cliched in many respects but the movie does represent the chaos, confusion and resultant dangers of our times.

A scared, young survivor of an attack becomes another victim of a radical, extremist group plotting to shift opinion through the savvy use of social media.

For some, the film will be an eye opener about the lengths to which some groups are willing - and able - to go to further their political agendas.

Je Suis Karl is a believable story set in the backdrop of the political polarization found not only in Europe but across many parts of the world.

The movie may move slowly initially but the story picks up pace as the plot unfolds. A worthwhile film for the politically inclined film goer.

Very simple, out-of-the-box story. I think most people can figure it out in no more than 30 minutes. Me too. But then? In for a penny, in for a pound. I kept bingeing it and the the atmosphere got a bit tenser afterwards. With a simple story like this, it's really up to the director and the protagonist to prevent u from getting bored. They've done well. I would say they are above average.

Luna Wedler is a bit overact in certain emotional scenes. Yet, all in all, she is a bright actress and I love her performances in several films including this one.

Not an easy subject matter - but the message is clear. And violence never is the answer ... uncertainty isn't either. But it is something that some people are able to tap into. If you are afraid, if you think certain things may happen, if the press is reporting on things ... you may be subject to something ... you may be used for something ... and you may become the face (or name, no pun intended) - unintentionally.

Rough on the edges and within, this has quite a few issues - again no pun intended. I wanted to watch this at the cinema, but was not able to go there. So now that it was released for home viewing, I did just that. Maybe in cinemas I would not have noticed some of the flaws, but I reckon I would have there too. The pace is a bit all over the place - still the issue at hand is more than important.

I'm really not sure what show those who've written these gleaming reviews watched. Or perhaps they're actually network shills, which makes quite a bit more sense.

So painful to watch. Bad story, obviously written by a sensitive millennial. Zero chemical between the main characters. Bad music, bad dance, ridiculous.

Literally so many things wrong with this movie it would take an essay.

Cannot rate it lower.

Let's first start with the most important thing: don't look at the rating.

First, look at the comment and you'll understand why the general rating is so low: people obviously didn't get it and decided to put a 1/10 just because of it.

The truth is: this movie is a very good one.

People say the acting is bad: I hope those saying that are actually producers, actors, writers because: how can they judge ? Especially knowing the actors have both very good references, as well as the creator.

People say the story is bad: well if you don't get the details and the story behind, maybe.

But if you do, what a movie!

The true face of the far-right, far from what you would initially think. How someone can come from an extreme and reach the total opposite due to a single event.

The kind of movie that will make you think about the society, politics, and maybe even yourself.

Bad script, bad dialogs, unlogic behavior of the characters, too long, boring... I can't recommend this movie at all...

You know that feeling you get when you see someone dancing really badly, so much so that it makes you feel embarrassed? That's kinda like what watching this movie is like. No redeeming attributes whatsoever.

And why did Netflix produce this nonsense? What was the point behind making this movie?? Was someone so frustrated during COVID times that they just opened their laptop and started typing some garbage from all around world events, compiled it and sent it to the director, who for some reason thought ok let's get into the mind of people cause people will watch anything.

This movie has Zero characters, nonsense story right from the beginning and most annoying screenplay.

Avoid it like a sneeze during COVID.

This movie relies on controversy to draw attention.

As European, I found the story to be pure propaganda. In reality, no side is thoroughly blameless, but this movie wants the audience to think that one side is all evil, and the other completely innocent and good. I call BS!

The story slowly grows into a great pathos architected in a very smart way with feelings and weaknesses exploited in directions that are unexpected first and amazingly obvious in the aftermaths.

Drawing on the fears that are often attributed to immigrants, it could be easy to trigger an avalanche effect among the populations of western Europe (and maybe the western world in general) by using the new media in a poisonous way.

This movie is simply genius and does a great job in alerting possible escalations that make you think of how the same situations that brought to the second world war can be made possible today in a different sauce.

Besides the fact that the acting is just beyond magnificent, the whole story is shocking. I literally cried at least three times while watching & I'm definitely going to rewatch.

Some people might think it shows a way too one-sided perspective, but if you think about it a little it's actually a lot deeper.

The film shows that extremism can come from all sides & can be equally dangerous & dangerous. Instrumentalization goes undetected for too long & not everything you think is really right. Complex thinking is important.

I rated 9/10 stars because the age restriction should be significantly higher in my opinion. Young people could be misinfluenced & misguided if they do not understand the message.

I've clarified this flic for myself: youth distracts themselves by partying as if there's nothing going on to try to prove what's going on.

How come?

The rich sacrifice their own people to prove their power while they actually prove their FEAR

Je suis Alone?

It seems difficult for so many to watch a movie these days simply to be entertained. I found the acting, story line and production to be top-notch. It's not a documentary folks. Just enjoy it!
