Video Review – Jojo Rabbit (2019)

November 6, 2019 by EJ Moreno

Jojo Rabbit, 2019.

Directed by Taika Waititi.
Starring Roman Griffin Davis, Thomasin McKenzie, Scarlett Johansson, Taika Waititi, and Sam Rockwell.

In this video review, EJ Moreno shares his thoughts on the controversial Jojo Rabbit. The latest film from Taika Waititi is a satire that touches on what propaganda can do to a young mind.

EJ explains that while there is plenty to enjoy in the film, it doesn’t quite hit its mark.

Writer-director Taika Waititi (THOR: RAGNAROK, HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE), brings his signature style of humor and pathos to his latest film, JOJO RABBIT, a World War II satire that follows a lonely German boy (Roman Griffin Davis as JoJo) whose world view is turned upside down when he discovers his single mother (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a young Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. Aided only by his idiotic imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler (Taika Waititi), Jojo must confront his blind nationalism.

Jojo Rabbit is set for release on October 18th in the US and on January 1st in the UK.
