Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

larapha As the lead Horst (Michael Lott) once will state, aren't we all, at least sometimes, Wie die Karnickel? Sex sets the path of the film, from a hilarious moment to another. From the shiny life of Horst to the open and lively mores of his new/old gay friend Siegfried (Sven Walser), it's all that really matters to us. I found of particular interest the behavior of Gunther (Heinrich Schafmeister), one of the shy orchestra companion and straight friends of Horst. He keeps finding Horst life more amusing than his own, but can't confront his partner female Gilla (Elke Czischek) and keeps in the closet his real fetishes. Gunther isn't the sole interesting supporting cast character in the film. From Vera (Anna Bötcher) the aggressive but insecure companion to Kriemhild (Andreja Schneider) Horst singer lover, passing through Benno (Alfonso Losa-Essers) Sigi's truck loader lover, all cast has it's moments of shine. Also that's about sex fetishes that the film stands against, showing in a funny way how they dominate our thoughts, often to our disappointment when they happen to be true. But that's too philosophical about the real intention on the movie, aiming mostly to amuse. Destroying prejudices, showing the ridiculous of our human thoughts about sex and what the real thing is, it's a film that unworthily didn't come to broader audiences outside Germany (language barriers? Too ahead of his own time?) and well worth a look at. You will laugh loudly. And, contrarily to what I just said about philosophy, it will make you think a lot, as long as you wish to. Too see many times, it's not restricted to gay interest, but will show gay people in a way straights ought to know.

MauriceKA Yesterday, I saw this film. I didn't know anything about it before and was surprised how light-hearted and charming it is, just like the comic books from Ralf König, a famous German comic author. Unlike other films based on Ralf König's comics (Der bewegte Mann, Kondom des Grauens), this film transports all the spirit you feel when reading the comics. I laughed from the first minute to the last. The humour is partly subtle and partly very obvious. The film sure has a layer that can only be understood by a German gay man but is nevertheless thrilling to watch for everybody.It is for sure one of the best German comedies I saw for a long time.Mrs Schneider gives an outstanding performance as a Russian Opera Diva, including her famous "Bulgarian" accent - so be sure to see the original version in German.

stemako This is one of the best German comedies ever up to now, you cannot stop laughing, straight-forward, nothing you miss. Simple story I admit, but well-balanced as the weak and strong points of every participating side (gays, lesbians, heteros) is revealed. Enjoy!

Benjamin Stello This is another typical german "comedy", seen both from the plot and the humour. The plot is rather simple: A player in an orchestra is left by his wife because he purchased a porno and gets into a sexual relation with a opera star by the name of Kriemhild (Wagner, you know, this is probably supposed to be funny!). His gay neighbour by the name of Siegfried (Wagner again! A running gag?!) has relationship problems himself because he has one-night-stands but loves only his ex-friend... then there are several situations which are probably supposed to be funny but are not. In addition, the actors are throughout the movie nothing but bad, really bad. The director seems to have no idea what "timing" or these things are for- all in all one of the worst films I have seen in years. And I do watch many. 1 of 10, save your money, and if you do not, you are warned!
