It's all here in this quirky flick about an 11-year-old boy (Jojo) living in Nazi Germany whose imaginary friend is none other than the fuhrer himself.
We soon learn that it's only the naive and unworldly, like Jojo, who believe the fuhrer is playing with a full deck. Certainly not his mother, a wonderfully quirky Scarlett Johansson, or the Nazi in charge of Jojo's indoctrination camp, a terrifically quirky Sam Rockwell.
The plot thickens when Jojo learns that his mother is hiding a Jewish girl in the attic and Jojo realizes the stereotypes about Jews are a load of bunk.
The Movie Slut loved this flick, but if quirky doesn't leave you perky, you should skip this one.
