Look Who's Back (German: Er ist wieder da, lit. 'He's Here Again' pronounced [ʔeːɐ̯ ʔɪst ˈviːdɐ daː]) is a 2015 German satirical comedy film directed by David Wnendt,[3] and based on the bestselling[4] satirical 2012 novel of of the same name about Adolf Hitler by Timur Vermes.[5][6][7] The film features unscripted vignettes of Oliver Masucci as Hitler interacting with ordinary Germans while in character, interspersed with scripted storyline sequences.[8] It was listed as one of eight films that could be the German submission for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 89th Academy Awards, but it was not selected.[9] - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
The storytelling style of this movie is a true masterpiece. It hooks you in with the comedy and goes hard into the philosophical commentary in the end. Love how they had the balls to have hitler win in the end too. Not too many movies where the antagonist wins.
What do you mean antagonist?
@@DavoidLife AH is the antagonist
Technically he is the protagonist. Protagonist doesnt always mean good guy, it just means main character. The bald dude is the antagonist
In my opinion Hitler is the protagonist in this movie. Protagonist doesn't always mean good guy and antagonist doesn't always mean bad guy. To me, protagonist means main character and antagonist is simply the main opposition. Protagonist and Antagonist should simply refer to the role of a character, not whether their personality, goals or intentions are in the side of good or evil
@@anm10wolvorinenotapanther32 The problem is that people have used protagonist and "good guy" togheter so much that the antagonist becomes "evil" by default,like walking dead where Rick's crimes are whitewashed or forgotten.
That silence you speak of was an actual tactic that Hitler used in all of his speeches. He'd pause, and draw everyone's attention. Sometimes for minutes on end with thousands looking to him...
Yes but its pretty unusual to pause for a minute since it will confuse the audience normaly its only below 30 sec ut most but ofc sometime its can beyond 30 sec but beyond that it's too long.
@@nazigorfurher4403 People just have short attention spans nowadays that's all.
@@gamechanger8908 it would probably be even more effective now, imagine how uneasy and terrified folks would be if a speaker just went silent. Some would laugh but the truth is I think today it would be even more effective
The man was one hell of a demagogue. Have to give him that. He knew how to speak, how to read people, lead them to where he wanted them to go.
it's honestly fascinating how good he was at public speaking. i'm sure many people learn from him -- just the public speaking part, i mean, is worth studying. i guess it is true that it was his fate to become... a notorious politician. definitely changed the world
The darkest part imo is that movie Hitler had enormous success with his speeches while the only person who saw the truth and tried to stop him ended up in a mental hospital.
Because they were crazy
One of the hardest movies to watch and at the same time an absolut brilliant one. You'll spend the first 30 or 40 minutes laughing your ass off and then it gets darker and darker and you'll have a hard time keeping a straight face. Believe me, if you are not totally stupid you will recognize the turning point and identify the message behind the movie. A must watch.
Where can i watch it?
@@dlpgaming8000 netflix and there are some versions on you tube
@@szampon.1145 I don’t see it on Netflix ?
@@GrindersLifestyle maybe region blocked for you ?
To me the turning point was when he was first on tv, and kept silent, and then started talking about the state of Germany. Nothing too spectacular, untill you see the people watching tv agreeing with him..... It became frightning when he was touring Germany and the kids all wanted to have a picture with him, and were shouting "Deutschland!!!". He is never far away...

I didnt even know this movie is available in other Countrys than Germany. As a Person that lives in Germany im realy happy that foreign people can watch an apreciate this movie! (Great Video btw)
@@theyoungcynics3177 Honestly im not the biggest fan off most off the german movies, but i would recommend most movies by the German director Bully Herbig(most off them are Comedy movies).But most german movies are just realy boring. If you want to check out a realy disturbing horror movie, watch "Der Golden Handschuh", its realy brutal.
@@theyoungcynics3177 Try these:
'Der Untergang' (downfall) - incredible performance by Bruno Ganz as Hitler and in my opinion the best movie about (the end of) the 3. Reich ever made!
th-cam.com/video/htvYfe6wz_8/w-d-xo.html
'Das Leben der anderen' (the life of others). Equally well done, it's about a Stasi Captain (Eastern German secret police), really worth a watch. Won an Oscar I think.
th-cam.com/video/n3_iLOp6IhM/w-d-xo.html
'Lola rennt' (Run Lola run) Movie is from 1998 and still just awesome.
th-cam.com/video/YWb1XVcN3iY/w-d-xo.html
Bonus: 'Funny games'. It's austrian and all I can say is that this is the definition of a "hooooly shit, what did I just watch"- movie. Definitely one of the most disturbing films I've ever seen. They did a US remake in 2007 - but fuck that :D
th-cam.com/video/tkbG1uSH0to/w-d-xo.html
But you shouldn't watch the trailer if you want the full experience...
If you try one of these, let me know what you think about it :) Greetings from Germany!
Canada here.. watched it loved it! My ancestors are from Germany
i found out outside of europe they mostly use the titel look who is back instead, er ist wieder da
Is this movie available in the USA?
Fun fact: in the beginning of the movie, you'd see H. waking up in a specific spot. This spot is where he was carried out after his demise in the Führersbunker in 1945, where his remains was burned by his bodyguard, and seen by Joseph Goebells (Reich's Minister of Propaganda) and Hitler's other officers.
Yea they directly referenced that in the movie..
The movie starts funny, but then when you realize something is off, your eyes widen right fucking open. Spoilers: When he stares silently at the crowd in “Woah, Dude!” You know he’s going to do a speech, and expect blatant laughter or for them to kick him off, ultimately ending in a bad ending for Hitler, but no, people agree with him, and start saying “He’s right on that”, and then you see newspapers about him and youtube vids about him, you realize this is just history repeating itself. He’s shown on national tv killing a dog, but with the release of his book, he regains his reputation. When he recruits people from Facebook, if you know about history, you realize this is basically the Browncoats, except with black sweaters. Then he rises to power, riots and protests break out, he’s seen as a national sensation, and no one knows he’s about to retake control over Germany.
Watched this movie in a plane(b4 the bug). Was literally laughing my ass off. Found not too odd when people agreed with him because I was aware that Hitler had a way with masses. At the end of the movie tho when he completly shreds any form of charade and clearly states his intention to the protagonist, I was actually scared shitless. The end of the movie left me with dread and absolute horror.
Maybe he had good points....
Wait I thought hitler is a animal lover
@@rocky-zx6kq What do you except from this anti Hitler propaganda? I don't like Hitler, he definitely is responsible for really bad things, but they're trying to make him to be some really evil being and that way destroy all proudness of the German people.
@@homerpoikafani1336 He also tried to make the German people stop using tobacco, by putting health warnings on the packages long before any other countries did, even though Sweden takes the credit for that, and forbid it when people where in the same room as him, as he knew that nicotine can cause cancer and other health problems...
Calling it "The indians revenge on us, for giving them alcohol!"
He also tried to convince everyone he worked with to quit eating meat, as he knew how the animals at the slaughter houses where treated. Not being late to tell everyone about them when he and his inner circle had dinner parties at his mansion like house.
The last scene, when Hitler said "I can work with this" was scary, yet brilliant and well done.
Have you seen the Italian version. Its called I'm back with Mussolini. It's just a blatant rip off.
@@theyoungcynics3177 don't bother it barely changes the plot it's literally just copy off of someone's hard work and change some of the events knowing that they can make easy money

I think the movie perfectly portrayed how nothing really changed and how easy it still is to manipulate people to follow your ideals by just finding the right words
It’s genuinely surprising to see modern day Germans saluting to Hitler
Thats because your brainwashed.
Guiding people is not manipulating them.
@@MintiesPoopin I would salute him too instead of some donkeys in vest trying to sell their country.
@@yasser.r8350 but manipulating people in following you so you can guide them is
What an incredibly poor take. You just pretty much said "Hitler bad".
(Edit, just to clarify I'm not coming out in support of Hitler, I'm Polish)
This movie does more than reveal that some people hold opinions similar to Hitler. It reveals that EVERYBODY has a part of them that is just like Hitler, and that will follow a man like Hitler. It reveals that once certain conditions are met, humans can't help but look to a man who will set things straight with an iron fist.
As such, it doesnt reveal something bad about white nationalism or the far right, it reveals how human priorities change with the conditions that surround them.
Peter Thiels take on this is that democracy only works when the deal is "you get more and I get more". But in a stagnant world someone will start getting less. This will inevitably lead to the scramble to secure as much as possible. Thiel believes that in developed economies this takes the form of fascism, while undeveloped economies turn communist.
Furthermore, the movie doesnt humanize Hitler. It just doesnt dehumanize him. He was a man who did what he did out of deep love for his people (tho this doesnt make his actions right). Seeing him with those simple human traits says more about cultures where he has become a comical byword for boogeyman, than anything else.
My thought exactly
Very well said

great take
Amazing explanation
I've always wonder is there going to be a sequel

Ill answer this guestion with an answer from the film "history repeats itself" dont know if it is a good thing or not but thats my answer
@@texset5815 k
Perhaps another person from the past. Lets say Churchill. That would be great
I hope
Just finished watching it. That plot twist at the end was insane 💀💀💀
The movie is a masterpiece, especially if you read all the behind the scenes articles of the actors and producers. They themselves say how surprised they were that only 1 person stood up against „Hitler“ while all the other people smiled and waved at him, and even agreed with all the racist stuff he said. There was also one scene they set up at a public viewing of a football game, where a paid actor hired by them was going around saying things like „fuck Germany, you suck, I hope you lose etc.“ and the guy playing Hitler deliberately provoked the crowd by saying things like „Are you just going to accept that?“. In the end they started to physically attack the actor and the film crew‘s security had to step in, otherwise they would‘ve beat him pretty bad. The whole crew was pretty shocked after that event.
It‘s a bit sad that all of this behind the scenes stuff is in German, so a lot of people will be left out.
thats very promising
That’s so cool. Maybe Europe and Germany are waking up.

3:05 DEHUMANIZING Hitler is the biggest mistake we do and BTW what this movie tries to warn you about. It makes a point which everyone fears to admit: Nazis weren't monsters, they were people not diffrent than everyone of us. I have very little doubt that Nazism (or totalitarianism in general) would be as possible now as it was back in 1930's. It might look entirely different than you'd imagine, but our precious human rights and freedoms could be very easily flushed down the toilet.
They were under covid weren't they ?
People accepted loss of freedom for promisses of security quite easily
Exactly: most of them were what you would call «normal people». Under the Plan**mic normal people behaved absolutely despicable against the unva**d.
It happened with the lockdown.
The parallels Hitler found in the 1920's and today are frightening! History repeats itself if you let it.
"History is just history based on history."
This is basically what I can get off this movie and real events: there will always be moments in time where history kind of loops back on itself with the same general premise no matter what the hell happened before it. It's the turning point in this movie, *ahem*... recent events, and much more.
It's a cyclotron.
i really liked this movie.
same
@Adolf Hitler oh hello mine fuhrer
Me 2
This german movie is better than one million american movies. At least you will able to understand german cultures and mind
Ferb, i know who were gonna bring back from death today
I really want to add what I think about the film as I watched only a couple hours ago and everything's still fresh. What I feel is the the movie is extremely well done with it as the video says starting out as a bit more of a comedy then it starts to get a little more on the interesting side with his first speech on television and if you've watched the movie I presume you have if your here the first speech is very persuasive, and I just went damn, but after that went that was very good and decided to rethink it while going for a little walk and I'm glad I did, because I realized I was moved and agreed with that speech and by the time I had finished my walk I realize how in 5 minutes not even this man had persuaded hundreds of people, and that shocked me a little, even scared me.
With this first paragraph I want to talk a little more about the end of the movie now we've seen how not even a clip of 5 minutes persuaded hundreds if not thousands of people, now if you watched not just the last ten minutes but the credits and after credits too you'll probably remember Mr. Adolf Hitler saying I can work with this, now I won't say what the complete ending is but there's a single bit of that movie where they show not cut and made scenes but ones of actual modern day Neo-Nazis or people who at least somewhat agree with them, a long with this I realized that there is a line between modern day Europe and 1930's Europe people are annoyed and protesting and rioting against the government and there is a line between these two Europe's, it is not a nice silver line that is easy to see, nor is it a blurred line, rather you can not see this line until you compare both Europe's and only then do you see that line but it is also only then that you realize the Modern Day Europe has crossed that line.
This is why the saying; "History repeats itself like a ripple" Makes sense, it just doesn't make sense until you hear Hitler say, "I can work with this" and compare the two Europe's and realize there is not much difference.
Now please don't hate on me I'm not a Nazi or anything but I know someones gonna hate on me I just simply wanted to add my opinion.
You really shouldn't have added that last sentence, your message was clear enough without that and if somebody assumed you to be a nazi for this then it's them who has a screw lose.
You are afraid just for telling the truth? Why? Do not apologise to those who afraid in their own weak insecurities
@@iwanschani4339 Thank you
i watched this just a few hours ago as well, and i actually feel the same. look, i'm an asian (taiwanese) girl, i hate fascism, i'm definitely not anything even remotely close to a nazi. but i feel the same as you do. during his speech in the movie, even i was touched. and throughout the film i was kind of drawn to his character and even was sort of rooting for him in the beginning. like the youtuber said, the actor really did a good job playing the part and *humanizing* a person who is always referred to as a monster. even knowing all the horrific things he has done, we as humans can still be manipulated. how can we be like this anyway? how can we know history and yet when history repeats, we don't have the ability to stop it? sometimes it feels like this man has a magical power and the ability to really get inside your head and make you see what he sees. it is very scary. i'm just glad that our modern day fascist dictators (xi, putin, kim) don't have even a fraction of the power hitler had.
@@keeptaiwanfree How right you are on that last statement

The scene in reality isn't funny, the troll was an actor, the people attacking him quite fast because someone told them to was not done by actors. In fact people of the set had to intercede because they might have seriously hurt him.
Damn steiners counter attack really worked
Some wild informations about this movie: The Actor which portraits Hitler is no movie actor but an Theater actor thus he really dived into that persona. And also some scenes in this movie were shot while the people walking around in the scene didn’t even know they were part of a movie.
Why hasn't anyone stoped him
He is so iconic
Obviously they don't think it's actually Hitler, because that would be impossible in the eyes of almost everyone. So they believe it's a parody act by a comedian taking the piss out of Hitler. Hence the reason everyone goes along with the 'act' and he becomes popular.

It’s hard to tell which parts of this film has real people or actors.
The movie is like Borat, but actually good. And is the character bad? Or is he actually pointing out real world issues that if questioned gets one ostracized?

Yes
No, he's definitely bad.
Huh, never thought of that.
I now understand why people said they had the chills when they watched/heard normal Hitler, he's just like a normal person, which is what terrified them
Actor did a good job as Hitler, except that the real Hitler had piercing blue eyes. Not sure why they did not have him wear contact lenses.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one wondering about that.
I personally see many similarities between now and before Adolf Hitler first rose to power, civil unrest, pandemic, war and conflict,as well as other racial issues, poverty public and political stupidity.
What war has the world seen in the past 60 years that is even 1/8 of the scale the great war was?

That was Germany in the mid 1920s...

Germany post war was still economically strong, just in serious debt. Middle East countries have their valuables stripped and are left with shit land and no government.

I find it odd that humanising Hitler is always considered a bad thing. To me, showing his ordinariness, rather that painting him as this 100% evil figure, as if he was somehow not really human, masks how potentially easy it is for people such as him to rise to power.

This movie is scary. Without giving away too much, you start identifying and relating to Hitler’s message with full knowledge of who he is. This movie is a work of art, showing how Hitler was in real life. He was charming and charismatic.
I once read an account of a visit by Hitler to Leipzig by a local border official. It is astonishing how much like Beatlemania the whole visit felt

TH-cam has scrubbed the initial promo video from that showed a positive reaction to
I absolutely loved the book. it had so many funny parts and sentences, I couldn't read it on the bus, because I was laughing so badly. but also, the book was incredibly scary. terrifying.
and now, watching some scenes from the movie brings that same amount of fear back. I almost chose history - WWII/propaganda as my subject at the university. I probably watched every single documentary and read a ton of books about the dictatures, propaganda etc.
the first problem is, you get to like this character, who Timur has created. and then, the fact scares you. this Hitler, in the book/movie isn't the yelling monster that everyone warns you about, or the person you see in documentaries. and your brain just becomes confused entirely. you need to sit down and clear things in mind, and I actually do recommend it after watching either this movie, or The Downfall, which is another masterpiece.
the way Hitler's character is built up in the story, is the scariest. what he says and the way he says it, is truly worrying. people could say "ah yeah yet another Hitler parody" but damn, this was something else. the only thing, which pulls me out of this agonization, is that the actor has brown eyes instead of the iconic blue eyes (if I can say that..) and there's many closeups about H. so basically, my brain kept telling me it's just an actor...
This movie is to show what if he come back to life or make the message to tell us.

That part struck a chord, hell you can look up an interview between a british host and Muhammad Ali, Ali said he would never marry someone outside of his race because he wants a child to look like him and his mother. This movie, as much as it is dark satire, makes alot of good points. People (especially Germans) are sick and tired of the multiculturalism destroying their homeland.
@@lvtuckerrvb As a German I can say you are right.
makes ya think.
At 4:24 with the subscribe thing
How did you get it without the green screen?
That movie is epic i feel like damn what if its real holy sht
I felt sad for Sawatzki :(.
Cracking film! I was expecting something a little more lighthearted and while this is still a funny film the ending REALLY made me think. I almost feel like there could be a sequel
Dont know how they even released this.
Meant to be a piss take of him, but he looks like a chad in every scene.
It's a damn good movie...I loved it.
Awesome movie! Loved it
It's not a comedy
It's the realization that Hitler was only a man and he thought like us and lived like us
But most honestly
He was voted in by those same people
Thank you for this review!
People agreed with him in a movie and I think in a real life too.
@Drumslav Czechisenko I guess loving your country is far right
@Drumslav Czechisenko Sure, but it's not natural to commit genocide.
Most people agree with him in every part of the world!!
"we defeated the wrong enemy"
Thank you for giving this amazing movie spotlight. One of the best and sadly most underrated German movies
What's funnier is I'm pretty sure this movie would be more relevant now than ever
I believe the film starts out as a comedy, then ends up as a drama. Because it's funny until it isn't. I mean think of all the people laughing at Trump, now he's president of the United States. And I would also like to mention how this story is really just a retelling of Hitler's rise to power, like instead of him being sent to prison, and writing his book. He is practically kicked out of society for his actions. Then he writes his book. All he has to do is donate to a dog charity, and everybody forgets what he did.
"think of all the people laughing at Trump" Right and Obama was a communist! I wish Neo-cons-libs would not cheapen words.
@@captainruffles5990 I didn't say I supported him or not. But the left thought it was almost a joke. They laughed at the thought of trump winning.
@Brian People are people, wether we come from different places or look different on the outside.
@Brian You will see there will be things that make you the same to. If we traced your lineage back far enough we would find out earliest ancestors came from Africa. Actually all of us come from one singular celled organism billions of years ago. I think if you saw a man in a situation like that you might surprisingly find yourself feeling compassion. And would take a few minutes out of your day to call that ambulance, you say you wouldn't, but he's probably liked by someone in your ethnicity to. Would you be hurting that person by taking or not saving someone they loved?
@Brian I get it's what you believe in and dislike. Humans evolved and spread around the globe, only when they found each other again they decided to hate each other. Those who hated the most, made sure the hatred outlived them. I hope you would let go of it. Because most species other than Polar/Grizzly bears can't make viable offspring with other species. I say you start of each new day with something that doesn't relate to hate or different ethnicities. Just at the very least start of your day that doesn't start with hate. It'll make you feel better I promise.
I thought that this film was very thought provoking and funny. the book is slightly different and the ending is different, but still pertinent.
This film is based off a 2011 book by timur vermes, you can read that if you want
It's a bit on the nose but ngl it made me tear up a bit when the grandma recognizes Hitler. I think the film suffers from the liberal lens of assuming ideas alone illuminate people's thoughts or change their minds when fascism is a feature of our capitalist society, something Hitler paved the road for because of our colonial past 400 years prior.
It was amazing to me that how many of the German people were happy or amazed to see the Big H. I found the film to be very entertaining.
A glimmer of hope, Germany may not be completely lost.
Just saw this movie. it’s scary how a modern day hitler can be easily implemented with the amount influence one person can have. If a strong influencer came up with manipulative words and unusual views with hidden wordplay one could say that a modern day hitler could be as easy as influence. And with the media we have today how easily an ideal can be broadcasted and shared...I don’t doubt it
"holy shit..... this film was like nothing I've ever seen before"....for sure, good review many thanks.
This movie was so good im gonna rewatch it but do you think there could be a sequel or a part 2 to look who's back there are not many like this and i think this is a one of a kind
nah is just a one time shot
@@yelnatsstanley7363 okay well i still really enjoy this movie
@@Devastator21 yeah same. i feel like this move changed something in me. i guess it is true how democracy is easy to corrupt.
@@yelnatsstanley7363 always been. As simple as 3 people say carrot to an apple and 1 person say apple to an apple will makes the apple become carrot. If you want to be elected, manipulate the people decision as most of people cant think for themselves anyway.
@@pz_faust6866 yeah. Since I made that comment, I learned the whole truth about "they" and democracy and everything. We really are living in hell
Does this movie exist anywhere in US? Can't find to rent, buy, or stream anymore.
Jeff it’s on Netflix
@@bemotivated8443 in the US? I just checked and it's not there. Did you search by another name?
Try er ist wieder da
@@mrnukes797 not available in my region. Netflix censoring subtly lol
@@mehtacotute must be the rainbow people
Yes. It is a brilliant script and a frightening examination of ourselves
An amazing film. One of the best of the 2010, and probably the best out of Europe so far this century.
It's brilliantly written, relatable, exceedingly funny in the most disturbing ways, and a deeply philosophical mindfu*k all in one.
By the end of my second watchthru, I even felt as if I understood German.
I would highly] recommend to anyone who isn't sensitive to such things.
Do the same but with Lenin.
Nobody will do. History is written by the winners
@@Unknown-be3fm Go ask the russians dude, last I checked Lenin wasn't German.
The "most ruthless human being in recent history ".
Stalin.
Mao.
Pol Pot.
Sadam.
Ignoring, denying or trying to censor the truth does not change that truth.
Those who will not use the brains and skills they have are no better off than those who have none. They are by their own choice subject to the will and control of those who would be their masters.
Another filthy George not mention churchill among them...
It's painful but it is certainly needed.
Hey mate, my favourite part was the rooftop scene!
This movie depicts perfectly the people who enjoy "edgy" humor. They can literally repeat hitler talks and when someone calls them out they defend themselves woth the "it's just a joke" bullsh*t
I like the scene in the boardroom where the bald corporate ladder climbing guy repeats the scene of the bunker in “Downfall “ where he has certain people stay in the room and for the rest to leave.
I sense a grudge against people with edgy humour. So you're a eunuch? I mean if you had balls you wouldn't care...
The best thing about this film is 0 blck ppl involved ❤
Just finished the movie.
my GOD that ending.
Good film. Very well-written.
They removed it from netflix
Who owns netflix?
@@Willy_Tepes "Who"...w h o...WHO...World Health Organization...
Fuck. You think there'd be some kinda antitrust laws out there.
@@Willy_Tepes Reed Hastings
Stalin and Communism was/is FAR worse.
Ok? And??? Just because one of the two is more evil doesn't justify their actions
@@vuilnisgod4388 One's kinda fringe...and the other not only avoids critique, but is championed in liberal circles.
So just in terms of relevance today with emphasis on "is" in op's "was/is"...
Pink guy and the red power ranger makes a cameo in the internet scene
i remember when i was sick and had a strong fever and watched this and it felt like a fever dream. watching this now makes me scared of how real it is
It’s a brilliant film-funny but intentionally disturbing and a warning! Brilliantly acted and courageously filmed.
