yeah, extremely accurate, the actor that played hitler actually started watching hitler's speeches 3 months before the filming, and as a result could mimic him really precisely. lots of people reacted negatively to him taking the role of hitler however, political correctness gone mad...

although one scene is kinda unrealistic... at the end lots of women surrender to the soviets, and they are mostly unharmed, but in real life most these women would have been dragged off and raped almost instantly... some of them were never seen again...

whilst we are on German cinema (and they do ww2 better than anyone else)
may I recommend The Ninth Day...

not a gun battle in sight, no tanks, no planes...

but THE most intelligent exploration of the Gestapo Modus Operandi and how it controlled people...in this case a Catholic Priest on "holiday" from Dachau, but it could of been anyone... based on a true story and actual memoirs its THE MOST powerful bit of cinema I've seen in years. I caught it by fluke on SBS in Australia, the wife was glued to it aswell. The war of words, control and ideological head-screwing is incredible. If you are in the mood for thought food this film is a real mindf**k. Superb. Like Downfall best watched in the original German with subtitles. Not as broad and immediate as Downfall but somehow more intimate...
