Movies that feel likeJojo Rabbit (2019)

Jojo, a lonely German boy during World War II has his world shaken when he learns that his single mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their home. Influenced by a buffoonish imaginary version of Adolf Hitler, he begins to question his beliefs and confront the conflict between propaganda and his own humanity.

If you loved Jojo Rabbit, the closest films we have are Triangle of Sadness (2022), Tropic Thunder (2008) and M*A*S*H (1970). All three share Jojo Rabbit's witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is OMG: Oh My God! (2012).

The difference: Cynical and shaggy — camaraderie without innocence

One of the world's most acclaimed comedies, M*A*S*H focuses on three Korean War Army surgeons brilliantly brought to life by Donald Sutherland, Tom Skerritt and Elliott Gould. Though highly skilled and deeply dedicated, they adopt a hilarious, lunatic lifestyle as an antidote to the tragedies of their Mobile Army Surgical Hospital, and in the process infuriate Army bureaucrats. Robert Duvall, Gary Burghoff and Sally Kellerman co-star as a sanctimonious Major, an other-worldly Corporal, and a self-righteous yet lusty nurse.
