Maan, this is just getting harder and harder...



Is Downfall really that great? It defeated Rear Window in the previous round and is currently beating Blade Runner.
I would take Rear Window ANY day over Downfall, but I've never been a fan of Blade Runner that much, so that's why I see Downfall as being better.

It's a pretty much a perfect movie for me, until the last 20 minutes or so, but still, one of the best WW2 movies and it receives big props from me from being different and focus on Hitler and the last days in the bunker in Berlin. It's not just "another war movie".

Yes, it really is great. But then so are Rear Window and Blade Runner. Tough decisions all round.
