This film is a work of fiction. Most of the other commentaries overlook that fact. The deluded and neurotic man portrayed in the film is a work of fiction. He bares little resemblance to the real Hitler.
Hitler is a popular target for hatchet jobs and misrepresentation. He was neither a fool nor a madman.
The supporting characters in Moloch are sycophantic. That is true enough - most powerful people - from Obama to Putin - are surrounded by sycophants.
Ironically the name suggests either a monster or a devourer of children. That description is more appropriately applied to Stalin.
This a strange movie. But it should be seen as a character study, not history.
