- Synopsis:
In 1945 the Nazis flew to the Dark Side of the Moon, and established a secret hideout, where they've been preparing for their grand return. The year is 2018, and the Americans return to the Moon in search for powerful energy source, Helium-3. They end up landing too close to the secret Nazi fortress, and although the big Nazi weapon "Gotterdammerung" is not yet ready to be deployed, soon the skies are full of iron, as the Nazi war machines take a pre-emptive move against threat from Earth. The 'Dictator's Cut' of Iron Sky is an all-new take on the film, following the original vision of the director Timo Vuorensola. This version is 20 minutes longer, loaded with new visual effects, new music from Laibach - and, of course, tons of new, politically incorrect humour. - Actors:

Very difficult to watch as is English & German spoken language at the same time! - Iron Sky: Dictator's Cut review by CS
Unfortunately I was unable to watch this film as I have a hearing loss and require Subtitles!
Cinema Paradiso state that this film has both English & German spoken language and Subtitles in Danish, English, Finnish, Norwegian & Swedish.
However that is not quite correct! There are no choices available for language or subtitles at all, the film itself is in both English Language and German Language, which gets very confusing. When German is spoken, English Subtitles appear, but you cannot choose any subtitles at all from the menu! The only option you have on the disc is 2.0 or 5.0 sound!
So be aware if you rent this film that there are no proper subtitles for those with hearing loss, nor are there subtitles in any of the other languages listed in CP’s review!
So after attempting to watch it, I gave up after ten minutes!

What passes for comedy in Finland, probably... - Iron Sky: Dictator's Cut review by PV
What to make of this film?
Well, watch the EXTRA doc to see it grew from a bunch of scifi geeks who made computer animations then Star trek parody films in their bedrooms and basements, It grew from that computer game and graphic novel culture, which is not mine...
I love a good comedy esp with Nazis like the wonderful THE PRODUCERS musical. Or Chaplin's The Great Dictator which is referenced here. Or even the short-lived Channel 4 sitcom Heil honey, I'm Home (yes, really). But this? I think I cracked a smile once. Maybe twice.
The African-American character bounces around the absurd and often confused scifi plot - it is clear what matters most to this film's producers and director is the special effects and how to make this look like a $100 million movie (as it states in the EXTRA doc). Very odd that an unnamed Einstein character is in this - as Albert escaped Nazi Germany in the 1930s...
Interesting this black character, as he does #whiteface in the manner of the movie White Chicks (heavily influenced by some Like it Hot). One to cite when people get hysterical about white actors wearing make-up (socalled #blackface).
Bizarrely, made in Australia a lot, prob top get the tax breaks...
One for the computer game nerds really. Apparently it is also a computer game and comic. Fine. not for me. 2 stars. JUST.
