The film would have been a great SNL skit, but as a film it leaves a lot to be desired. I'll admit that it's hard to get laughs from the Nazis, Hogan's Heroes not withstanding. But it's not merely the juvenile humor that doesn't light the spark, it's the constant lapsing of accents, the modern idioms, and the kid's forgetting that he limps. I left after half an hour so maybe I'm wrong and maybe somehow the film got better.
