This is just great!! I see someone else that reviewed it hated it... well, that dude is just sour. There's no reason why not to like.. seein' Noah Wylie as a Nazi ain't so great.. but it's kinda interesting!! Robert Sean Leonard (the main character) is just..... wow. Yes, I like RSL... a lot. The story is true (at least it's based on a true story..) the music is all swing (duh) and there's some really great dancers! It comes on HBO sometimes... so watch it and tape it!! you'll wanna watch it over and over and over....

My biggest rag on this film, is where Thomas is going around from house to house, and by the end discovers he's been carrying human ashes to deliver to the next of kin. Yea right! Like crematorium technology was advanced-enough in the 40s to cremate Jews or others on that sort of scale? Not to mention that it's dubious that they had all that extra. preoccupied manpower or wholeheartedness, when the bigger threats came from the US, UK, and other nations. However, the only reason I do appreciate this film at all, is the fact that it did open me up to classic swing, and that's about all. I do truly believe that this film was designed to promote swing, and not to promote any real light on WW2.

This is a great movie about the swing movement in Nazi Germany during World War II. It not only has an engaging plot and wonderful characters, but also a lot of great music (and even a little dancing..). This movie also explores the themes of freedom, friendship, and to a small degree (thankfully) hatred/following blindly/typical cliche nazi themes. Overall, I would give it an 8 out of 10. One question though: WHY ISN'T THIS ON DVD??

I absolutely love this film. It's such a great story, very touching you can't help but cry every time. The acting is amazing, and so is the cinematography. Definetly a great film that everyone should see.

This is one crappiest movies I have ever seen, my list of complaints is as follows, (note my friend loves this movie) 1. What about the jews? This movies almost in some contrast makes them look evil. They failed to show the suffering they went through. 2. The nazis looked friendly. The worst thing the nazis did was rob a house...Yeah Right! Did they mention the killing? Or the fact that they controled alot more than what they showed in the movie. 3. Finally, Noah Wyle could never be a believable Nazi, he plays so many nice guys that seeing him here actually made me laugh my butt off, I mean what next? Shelly Devaul as a hooker, or Barney as Stalin?

I thought it was a great representation of how Hitler really changed people. Now, we think 'How did people believe all of this?', but now we see how good people were led astray by Hitler's words. It was miraculous.

This movie is excellent, for anyone who enjoys swing music, and dancing. It contains both, and is pre-war era, 1930, and has a lot to offer,in many areas. It is about 'teen kids', mostly, who rebel against the German way of life, and takes place in Hamburg, Germany. All they want to do is to be allowed to dance, and play their music, like any normal teen. But, they have to fight for this pleasure, and do it in hiding, from the Germans. The consequences, if caught, were drastic, sometimes, even to death. This movie showed how some dealt with it, and some others got tired, and couldn't live the lie any longer.

It's not often that you can see such spectacular dancing with a riveting story to go with it. I saw "Swing" at the Ahmanson Theater in Los Angeles last night and the music/dancing reminded me of this movie. Would like to buy it on DVD but it hasn't been released in that format.
