Jojo Rabbit Reviews

The film does have the power to make you laugh and cry. At times it may not be easy to watch but at the end of the day this is a film so powerful that it deserves to be mentioned alongside great Holocaust films such as Schindler’s List.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 10, 2025

Jojo Rabbit is a parody of Nazism, where the idea of ​​a fanatical child who dialogues with the “spectre/presence” of Hitler is very original. However, all subsequent development loses originality since it seems like a fusion of previous films such as...

| Original Score: 6.5 | Aug 15, 2024

It relentlessly mocks not only the disgusting prejudice woven into extreme right-wing ideology, but, frankly, the inherently ridiculous nature of many Nazi beliefs.

| Jul 14, 2024

Ultimately, the power of perspective is a phenomenal approach to making a satirical film of such a heavy topic. But satire without challenging the way we as viewers think and feel is just cheap parody without actual criticism.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 14, 2024

Taika Waititi's Nazi comedy Jojo Rabbit is delightfully absurd and surprisingly poetic, and unlike anything you've ever seen before.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Oct 30, 2023

Delightfully one of the year’s best films.

| Original Score: A+ | Mar 8, 2023

Much of the comedy is too broad to truly satirise the subject matter... unable to nail the emotional beats when it finally confronts the true reality and horror of the situation.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 11, 2022

The film’s ability to make you laugh, cry, or be utterly appalled is one of its many strengths.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 22, 2022

This is a great way to deliver such a powerful message… under the guise of comedy.

This was the movie that made me laugh and cry the most in 2019. It created this absolutely perfect mixture between satire and drama. Every joke hits all the good spots. Waititi's best work? Probably. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 9/10 | Jul 7, 2022

War is absurd. Art has been making this point for centuries now, but few pieces of art have fully embraced that absurdity as much as Taika Waititi’s Jojo Rabbit.

| Original Score: 8/10 | May 13, 2022

Waititi's message of anti-hate proves resounding and good-natured, leaving the audience firmly dismissive toward the film's target: the hatred inherent to Nazi ideology.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 23, 2022

Its trying to question what youre taught, its trying to empathise with being villainised into something less than human, and its trying to give you the ability to laugh in the face of hate so that you have the strength to fight it. It does that.

Episode 52: Jojo Rabbit / The Lighthouse / Parasite

| Original Score: 80/100 | Dec 1, 2021

Taika Waititi's hot streak continues with whit and whimsy...

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 14, 2021

Much of Jojo Rabbit's comedy works in the moment.

| Mar 3, 2021

Weak satire almost saved by a surfeit of heart.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 16, 2021

Jojo Rabbit isn't simply an anti-hate movie as the ads say. More importantly, it's a pro-love movie.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 31, 2021

Is Waititi's film provocative? Yes. Silly? Undeniably. But it is also surprisingly tender and moving.

| Dec 21, 2020

Humorous, touching, and devastating in equal measure.

| Original Score: 10/10 | Dec 7, 2020
