Der Baader Meinhof Komplex (The Baader Meinhof Complex), Uli Edel, 2008

As with Steve McQueen's similarly unfulfilled Hunger, Edel's intentionally interchangeable revolutionaries simply never resonate. And while the RAF's monotonous campaign of violence (carried out, incidentally, by a gaggle of machine gun toting bombshells to make Russ Meyer blush) is played for the absurdity it would ultimately represent, such a pat subversion is unsatisfying after 140 minutes of shrill, abject terrorism.
