I can't say I loved this but it was good. The acting from the mostly unknown cast was surprisingly good. The weak plot was just about bearable and the SFX were top rate, if a bit overblown at times. Did the final giant Nazi spacecraft really have to have so many moving parts ? That was just showing off by the computer guys.

The really surprising thing was that the real Nazis turned out to be the other countries at the UN with their secret space programmes. Really brave parody, when most US film presents a world view of imperialism and 'might is right.' It made a refreshing change to see a different slant. But then it was a Finnish/Australian/German production. Only the South Park team have been brazen or crass enough to attempt similar digs at the USA.

I loved Julia Dietze. We haven't seen the last of her, that's for certain!
