The German Doctor (Wakolda) was a hurried yet largely dull film that relies heavily on the stunning landscapes offered by southern Argentina. Not only does it seem to glorify one of the most atrocious participants of the holicaust by the Nazis by making him out to be a anything but a psychopath, the 'metaphors underlying the whole film come across as weak and lazy. There is no suspense in discovering who the doctor truly is as the movie draws to a rushed and disappointing ending, leaving the viewer with the sense that this could have been so much more. 2 stars.
