This is one of those movies which just pops out of nowhere, pokes people in the eyes and pop back in from whence it came. Its a Finnish sci-fi comedy featuring WW2-slant visuals seen from the side of the Nazis. How weird is that? Pretty much.
The Skinny: The Nazis having established a moon base on the moon in 1945 plans a re-emergence in 2018. Sci-fi comedic antics ensues.
Taken from Wiki:
The Helmer: Timo Vuorensola - Iron Sky (2012), Star Wreck (In the Pirkinning) (Video) (2005), Norjalainen Huora (Short) (1998).
The Casts: Julia Dietze, Christopher Kirby, Gotz Otto, Tilo Pruckner, Peta Sergeant, Stephanie Paul, Udo Kier.
The Tagline: In 1945 the Nazis Went to the Moon. In 2018 They Are Coming Back.
Release Date: TBD
The Prediction: Hmm. Finland making comedic sci-fi? From an unheard of (this side of the planet) ex-rocker director? With a casts of unknown except for uber icon Udo Kier? How will it fare you'd wonder, wouldn't you? But looking at the trailer it looks kinda intriguing. It has that 40's black and white murky look and feel about it, similar to the one seen with the sci-fic actioneer led by Thomas Jane "The Martian Chronicles" (the Jane dude does pretty weird stuff, check out his Dark Country directorial debut). Is it all good? The premise is definitely comedic. The intent is of course, not to make money because it doesn't suggest any sequels, big star casts, and Hollywood remake. Be that as it may, the moment it touches bluray I'm there! Great title though.

Taken from Wiki:
As a dark science fiction that plays with Finland's history of being oppressed by Russia, Iron Sky is a deliberate thematic throwback, a modern implementation of once-popular science fiction tropes that have fallen into disuse, such as Nazis in space.[5][6]
As World War II comes to an end in 1945, Hans Kammler and other German scientists make a breakthrough in anti-gravity research. From a secret base in the Antarctic, Nazi spaceships are sent to the "dark side" of the Moon to establish the military base "Schwarze Sonne" (Black Sun).[3] Their plan is to build a powerful fleet and return to conquer Earth. The film is set in the year 2018 when their descendants finally return.[3][5]
