A movie with sloppy writing and pretentious execution that asks quite a bit from its audience. Seems eager to position itself on the right side of history and playfully joke about nazis, but fails to compel us to really join the ride or provide a reason for its existence, merely scratching the surface on both comedy and melodrama levels.
Jojo surfed on some hype, but will prove itself forgettable and cringe-worthy in the future. There isn't even enough for a moral discussion concerning this movie, because unlike The Producers, which at least develops comedy and provokes reflection, this is but cheap opportunistic plastic with decent advertising.
I'm giving it two stars for the adorable Yorki, which is fabulous and should have been the main.
