This is my third attempt at writing a review. The first two were not
posted, probably because I use the word 'n - azi' and that word is apparently a forbidden word. A mockery of course, because in this film everyone talks about n - azi's all the time!
Because my comment is very relevant and is precisely about this hypocritical part of the media, I am writing the piece again, but now I call n -azis: 'nuts'. Let's see if it gets posted. Otherwise, this will be my last review on this site.
The joke with American movies in general and this film in particular is that they always tell stories about the battle between good and evil. The so-called 'good' must then use even more violence to overcome so-called 'evil'. Happiness is a warm gun. To overcome 'evil', 'good' must always use 'ungentlemanly warfare'. The hero is more covered in blood than the villain.
We all know the nuts from the Second World War: the nuts degraded people to animals and murdered them in large numbers. What in the world could be worse than a nut? They are the perfect villains to justify violence (ask Tarantino).
Nuts are a useful tool for films that want to make violence legitimate, so that the viewer can indulge in cruelty without having to feel guilty. In The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, anything is allowed to fight the nuts. Strangling, shooting, cutting throats, you name it. Nuts have been degraded to animals and they are being killed in large numbers. The makers prove that they are also nuts themselves! You can state 'Yes, but then they are nuts for a good cause.' But hey! That's what the nuts from the Second World War thought too, right?
To make matters worse, the film is also boring. Because the bad murderers are only weak and the good murderers are only strong. Moreover, all the players are caricatures, which means there is no real drama. What remains is a group of nuts that degrades and kills another group of nuts into animals. Technically speaking, this is a film by and for nuts.
