4/10
a massive movement consisting of some hooligans

Warning: Spoilers
The film is highly implausible. Whether this is due to a lazy screenwriter or too small a budget? Probably both. At no point does the so-called gigantic nationalist movement transcend the small rooms or its own ranks. There is talk of sympathizers within the army, we don't get to see them either. The first half of the film wants to convince the viewer that we are dealing with an innovative movement. But then, an hour into the film, suddenly the story takes a turn. It seems as if the audience has to believe ah they are nazis after all... yes of course.

The movement gains momentum. We never get to see the large crowds of sympathizers. 60% of all eligible voters? Where are they.

Then suddenly after the murder, the viewer is led to believe that there is an outbreak of violence on a European scale. Coordinated and leading to a continent-wide coup?
