7/10
One of those films that any history / cinema buff needs to watch at least once....

....although, in this case, once may be more than enough for some people. It's technically innovative, with several amazing camera shots, but the content is hollow and repetitive; if you make it through the endless parade footage, Hitler's final speech is the most inflammatory - and revealing. One thing that is made clear, however, is how hypocritical it is to retroactively condemn director Leni Riefenstahl for being seduced by the Nazi ideology at that point in time, when millions of Germans (and others around the world) were far more vocal in their support of the Fuhrer. *** out of 4.
