this movie be a disgrace while it try to hide the collaboration of italian fascist to the deportation of thousand of jew and non jew to death camp during wwii in italy . believe me and italian fascist be a obnoxiously criminal ( and sometimes even more ) a their german peer . in this fascist revisionist libel italian fascist be depict like harmless comical character untouched by the crime against humanity and they and their german associate be responsible for and crime that live and will live in infamy until the end of time . death camp accord roberto benigni be some kind of poorly manage boot camp in which you could mange to survive by mean of be slightly more intelligent than the average prisoner . there a moment of the movie when benigni manage to reach the low an endeavour you have think not possible after one hour and a half of the previous ordeal it be when he and very underhandedly and provide the viewer with a thick mist in order to veil and that be to hide and a pile of corps of prisoner murder by the nazi . let u suppose and just for the sake of the present argument and that a fascist movie can be funny this be arguably a fascist movie well there isn not a single funny scene in this poor excuse for a movie and the joke be trite and all of them can be predict by someone who have see at least one cheap comedy before . this thing have be unjustly compare to the great dictator and which be maybe the bad movie charlie chaplin do and but the the comparison be still unfair and the great dictator be an overrated sentimental bad movie and but it be not fascist propaganda like roberto benigni . if you want to see an excellent italian comedy deal with the same subject try lina wermüller pasqualino settebellezze ( 1975 ) http represent or or imdb . com or title or tt0075040 . you will not forget the sequence in which the great giancarlo giannini seduce a two ton whale sized s woman officer in order to save his life .
