@@miguelrivera5430 In your opinion. What is the criteria you base that statement on? Is it merely because his films don't appeal to you? He gets the performances he wants from his actors, and delivers fun films on relatively low budgets that more than make their investment back. I'm sure there are plenty of worse directors out there that don't fulfil either of those two basic requirements. His films are popular, if a little self indulgent, but always great fun, and even profound sometimes, such as Dogma. They're not art, they're entertainment.

I'm English, so sarcasm is my native tongue. I've met a few people from New Zealand in my time and I've known people who have lived over there. What I've learned and heard from those experiences is that on many occasions they don't have much of a sense of humour at all and Kiwi's like Taika are very much the minority. I was expecting them to be like us, but I was left really disappointed. Many of them were actually quite rude, rather than sarcastic. There wasn't a glint in their eye or a wink and a smile, it was straightforward blunt rudeness. Sour is a word that comes to mind.

The part in particular of that film was when Ryan first shows him the suit, and Taika's reaction is like Woahhhw. We were instantly laughing, like; not bad, I guess he's all Hollywood now, hahahaha.

This was not my favorite film of the year BUT it was one of the few that I watched more than once. It had that magical quality that reminds me of films like Matilda. Aside from the rating due to the language...it could be a childhood classic. It took a very delicate topic and made it palatable even for children without pandering to their age group. The boy who played JoJo was fantastic, and the director was phenomenal as the Hitler imaginary friend. So campy, hilarious, but even sinister at times. Scarlett Johansson is a show-stopper in everything she does. She is like the Meg Ryan of modern film in that the screen naturally lightens up when she’s on screen. She is one of the most relatable and comforting faces to see in any film. I love everything she does. This film gives you a warm cozy feeling throughout, and the boy truly made this film. He carried this with his gentle handling of the hard emotional points he had to navigate. Hits you right in the feels. I adore this film, and it’s added to my collection.

Jojo rabbit has EVERYTHING i love in a movie. Comedy drama action romance. Funny and sad and inspirational with messages of life. An all around fantastic movie... So well put together and cast was great with great chemistry. Imo. I recommend to everyone give it a shot. I was hesitantat first but decided to just see it n was hooked in first couple minutes and am a HUGE fan of it now!!

I have to point out a slight inaccuracy at 9:02 ; after the war many Nazi’s were tried but not prosecuted. A lot of them were not even tried. It’s well known that a lot of the older German judges presiding over these cases were Nazi’s themselves, or at very least Nazi sympathisers. Anyway, as a Kiwi could not be more proud of this guy, GO TAIKA!

@Cheesepuff8 4 жыл бұрын

Isaiah T Yeah very true, I'm sure Taika did know that but he was making what he was gonna say up on the spot so ye

@kidunderabridge 4 жыл бұрын

I think he meant it more like, if you declared yourself a nazi back then, you got a lot of looks and scrutiny, you kinda had to hold your head down and act like it wasn't a big deal what you did to basically have the sympathizing judges be like "yeah I don't see any problem". But nowadays, people can just declare themselves nazis or breathe hate speech and people openly and freely rally around them. I think that was more the discord he was trying to paint a picture of.

@@galaxyspace76 It's not always convenient to just plug in an external wherever he needs to write. You kind of want the inbuilt keyboard to not be garbage so you don't have to do that.
