A well told story, scripts, similar in genre to others who assisted Humans from a certain death. Well paced, interesting, and very good acting.
I would give much higher stars if it had not had a major plot oversight. It is the same error in every Hollywood or otherwise production. In the 1930s, Germany had AntiSmoking legislation. This legislation was very Strict. The only people in Germany who smoked from the 1930 until after 1945 were Foreigners. Showing nazi military staff, especially officers smoking in Uniform did not happen. No one smoked in public, in shops, when working, when on duty. Nazi officers were always in Uniform because they were always on duty.
Smoking only returned to Germany after 1945. UK and US created the huge market or their tobacco products. Post War Germans took up smoking in as a very high proportion of the population because to be a smoker was to portray one's self as... I was not a nazi, see... I smoked, the nazis did not smoke.
To this day, many decades, generations later, Germans still smoke far more than most other parts of EU and developed world. The stigmas of a previous eta still linger many generations later as exemplified by the percentage of smokers and the failure to fully eradicate smoking in places where people work.
Antismoking legislation in UK and PSAs have reduced smoking from 80% a century ago to 8% today.
