** The toy-burning scene has the Critic musing that it's rather appropriate that this film stars Creator/NathanLane (as Uncle UsefulNotes/AlbertEinstein), given that the aforementioned scene--with all its disturbing parallels to UsefulNotes/TheHolocaust and, rather jarringly, accompanied by cheerful music and dancing from the Rat King--reminds him of the ''SpringtimeForHitler'' musical from ''Film/TheProducers'', where Lane played Max Bialystock, one half of the eponymous theatre producers-slash-scam artists, from both the 2001 Broadway production and the 2005 film.
