Hitler's Hollywood Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
[Critic Rüdiger Suchsland is] a careful and observant critic.
POV Magazine
Pat Mullen
Hitler's Hollywood is as thorough and informative as a Master Class seminar, if as dry as Melba toast, and the collage of classic images presents snippets of film history that are both beautiful and unsettling.
Citizen Dame
Lauren Humphries-Brooks
Hitler's Hollywood is an essential critical work, not least because it shows just how apparently safe propaganda appears.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
Suchsland has created an important film which documents a strange time in the history of world cinema through the lens of authoritarianism and dictatorship.
Riot Material
Alci Rengifo
Suchsland is exploring the past while challenging us to apply his method to the present. He is implying that we will better understand who we are, and where we are going, if we awaken from our trances and look upon our own dreams and nightmares.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
There's a great deal to process and absorb here. We are the images we make of ourselves and our times, for better or worse.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A sad story all around.
The Film Stage
Tony Hinds
Suchsland's verbose essay film never successfully surpasses the realm of mere academic curiosity.
RogerEbert.com
Godfrey Cheshire
A cavalcade of images, icons and ideas that, while less innovative, are every bit as eye-popping in their own way as The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu, and Metropolis are in theirs.
Film Journal International
Doris Toumarkine
A fascinating but often pummeling blitzkrieg of clips, commentary, fleeting names and film titles.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Fascinating for history and film buffs alike.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
Rdiger Suchsland's film is a master class in the relationship between image production and ideology writ large.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
Part of what's alarming about "Hitler's Hollywood" is that it's easier to be seduced by these comedies and melodramas, at least in excerpts, than it is to endure Leni Riefenstahl's propaganda film "Triumph of the Will" today.
Maven's Nest
Nora Lee Mandel
Expands..seeing more of Goebbels' propaganda films...to burlesque comedies and musicals...That Third Reich was cinematic self-delusion is intriguing but repeats the obvious.
Modamag.com
Harvey S. Karten
Goebbels knew that movies could influence the masses of German people, so he picked particular films using the commercial Hollywood style to show in theaters. A top-notch collage of such works.
