Russia MocksThe Nazis With The Help Of Britney Spears.  Here Comes HITLER KAPUT!

Just a couple of days ago I commented that a major trend in current Russian film seems to be the big historical epic.  Well, there are a couple other trends also making themselves clear in new Russian film.  One, obviously, is effects heavy sci-fi and fantasy film.  The other? Broad, Zucker Brothers style slapstick comedy.  The latest to come from that latest trend is the upcoming Hitler Kaput!, a World War II farce.  It’s a surprising choice in subject matter given how deeply Russia was affected by that war - the war also provides fodder for current serious minded box office hit We Are From the Future - but production values look fantastic and pay particular attention to the soundtrack.  Hilarious!  Check the trailer in the Twitch Player below the break.
