I really liked some of Hitler's paintings. Anything that's not a building, yeah, looks kind of flat and lifeless and mundane, but I find his buildings are done with such precision and detail that they almost look more like architectural or archaeological impressions. As someone who works in technical drawing and studied it at school, and who isn't a great student of fine art at all...I like his buildings.

At the time, I think his style of painting was just passe. I'd agree that from raw skill level point of view, he wasn't a bad painter by any right. But at the time the art school was looking for a different style from their students. Even today, I'd say his skill level would make him a decent "mall kiosk artist" at best.
