Gandhi to Hitler

This is one of the most worst movie ever.. Topic seems innovative but the presentation, direction, speech delivery etc etc is worst in the history.. Invest your time in watching the ceiling but Don't WASTE A MINUTE by watching this pathetic attempt. If Hitler would have seen the promos, he would have shot himself AGAIN.. They call this as a documentary on this serious history event, which achieved its success in comedy genre. This is the reason Bollywood couldn't make progress, as they are wasting their time + investing their money in such a bullshit.. I would recommend the producer & director to watch "Downfall (Der Untergang)" & then later watch their movie for realizing what sin they have committed !!

Humble request: stop spoiling image of Bollywood..

This Indian movie is an absurd, ultra low budget unofficial remake of the German movie Downfall, about the last days of Hitler (despite the title, Gandhi appears only briefly in this film).

Since Britain came out very weakened after World War II and very soon had to give out her empire, I understand why some Indians might feel some indirect sympathy for Nazi Germany. But still, it's not clear to me why this remake was filmed, though it provides some amusing scenes in their ludicrousness (because it has some entertaining value, I did not give it a bottom rating).

None of the terrible actors looks German, which is quite obvious since they are all Indian. Some of the scenes in Downfall, especially those set in the Fuhrer Bunker, are copied almost verbatim in this film. And it is quite funny how a massive battle like the battle of Berlin (which resulted in 200,000 dead, 500,000 wounded, 500,000 prisoners) is acted with just a few extras. Or how outdoor scenes that are set in Europe were clearly filmed in India. Some viewers might be offended as well that the crimes of National Socialism are not mentioned in the movie, and Hitler is portrayed as an honorable patriotic German, a very angry guy but not an evil person (the scene where "Hitler" dictates his testament is outrageous in this respect). Also, I don't get why the actress playing Eva Braun speaks in English in this movie while the other characters speak in Hindi, is speaking English a sign of superficiality/snobbishness in India?

Characters are well accounted for from Hitler to Subhas Bose and others like Himmler and Eva Braun. Well researched story. Involves only the end of WWII at which the Indian National Army contacted Hitler. Like Neville Chamberlain, Gandhi believed in " peace in our times". That gave the world WWII and Gandhi's legacy of Partition and massacre of one million lives in 1947, India's independence. Worth watching.

I absolutely love this film - it is brilliant .... totally bizarre - an Indian actor plays Hitler .... WOW! This has to be seen to be believed!

Well, as emphatic as the name sounds, Gandhi To Hitler is nothing but a sheer act of lunacy. The idea is taken from a popular stage play and the limitations of the concept show on the big screen. The film comes across as nothing more than a cheap elementary school's staged version of Der Untergang (2004). Some scenes (almost everything shot in Hitler's bunker) are a straight lift from the German original. The sets look cheap and why on earth were Indians wearing SS uniforms? It seems the filmmakers really didn't want logic to be part of the film. Performances at best can be called hamming. This is a real sham of a film if I ever saw one.

The attempt might have been a novel one, but trust me if ever execution of a film went wrong this was it. It's one of the worst films I've seen in a long long time.
