Heydrich, affectionately known as The Blonde Beast or Prince of Terror, is the kind of bad guy people find difficult to laugh at (even if just to exorcise their uneasiness). And not just for impressive body count, but mostly because he's in perfect control of what he does and it's basically impermeable to anything and everything.
Yet, this movie made him look somewhat boring. He's like just an evil Nazi dude who does his thing, almost indistinguishable by any other villain in a WWII movie, the script doesn't make the character shine. The actor was also very wrong for the role, he looks nothing like the sharp faced original and the acting is very stiff.
