"Iron Sky" is an extraordinary science fiction comedy that provides a lot of entertainment with its whimsical concept and successful execution. Directed by Timo Vuorensola, the film takes us on an adventurous journey to the moon.
The plot revolves around a group of Nazis who retreated to the dark side of the moon during World War II and established a base there. Decades later, their existence is discovered when an American mission to the moon inadvertently uncovers them. A chaotic clash between the Nazis and the modern world sparks an absurd and humorous battle for supremacy.
Timo Vuorensola's direction gives the film a unique atmosphere. With a keen sense of absurd situational comedy and an eye for detailed settings, Vuorensola creates a world that is equally impressive and amusing. His directorial style, which draws on elements of trash films and B-movies, gives the film its characteristic charm.
Mika Orasmaa's camerawork captures the whimsical world of "Iron Sky" in an impressive way. From the vastness of space to the dark and futuristic Nazi bases on the moon, Orasmaa manages to create a visually appealing and detailed environment. The visual compositions and use of light and color enhance the film's atmosphere and support its humorous tone.
The film's score by Laibach, an avant-garde industrial rock band from Slovenia, adds to the unique mood of "Iron Sky." Their epic and sometimes ironic sounds perfectly fit the satirical and overdrawn world of the film. While the score was not nominated for any major awards, it is an integral part of the overall experience.
"Iron Sky" was nominated for its visual effects at the Australian Effects and Animation Awards, which is not surprising given the detailed design of the Nazi spaceships and the spectacular space scenes. The visual effects contribute significantly to the immersive experience of the film and make for stunning imagery.
The ensemble of actors, including Julia Dietze, Götz Otto and Udo Kier deliver solid performances and embody their absurd characters with abandon. In particular, Udo Kier as the fanatical Nazi leader is convincing with his overdrawn acting and provides numerous laughs.
