From the very beginning this film draws you into the story with ease. A small town is occupied by the Nazis. The allies are about to liberate it so the Nazis boobytrap the town square, causing all the residents to flee. Our reluctant hero is sent in by the allies to find out more, only to discover the lunatic asylum is all that’s left. What really makes this film stand out are the performances from the childlike lunatics taking over the town. There are quite a few bellylaughs in this film and it doesn’t drag anywhere. Very pleasant film to pass the time.
Rating: 3 / 5
