Nightlife

After spending an entire day at a 5,000-year-old archaeological site, I found myself tired and worn out in my hotel room. I decided to order Jiao Laga Ji chicken for delivery, settled in, and turned on a movie. It was the perfect way to unwind! Elyas M'Barek as Milo and Palina Rojinski as Sunny provided exactly the entertainment I needed in this German comedy directed by Simon Verhoeven, who also played one of the bachelors in the film.

While falling in love has always been easy, building a stable relationship from that love can be quite challenging. Our protagonist, Milo, starts off strong until his friend Renzo (Frederick Lau) makes an appearance.

The film is light, fast-paced, and genuinely funny for me!

Tonally this is a bit all over the place. But the actors do make up for it. Maybe if you're not into Elyas (for whatever reasons), you may see that differently. If you are a fan you are already sold. In the unlikely case you are "objective" about him (at the present time that is), I am sure he will be able to sway you with his charisma and a decently written character.

It's nothing too big or surprising you'll find here. But there are nice touches and as said before the actors who really are able to turn things around. While the female lead may seem to only have a smaller part in all - she has some interesting things to do - nothing major, but at least she gets a few character traits. A nice movie overall, with a funny ending ... I reckon some saw it coming.

To be honest I didn't expect much.

But it turned out to be a really good and funny movie. Especially Frederick Lau is a joy to watch.

Some great dialogues and hilarious scenes.

Yes, the story is predictable, but it's not a Shyamalan movie ;)

The comedy is so undemanding but also so lacking of any substance.

Another German unnecessary not funny comedy. I am native German speaker (but not German) and such movies are the reasons why everyone says Germans don't have sense of humor.

If it would be a teenage comedy it might be acceptable but otherwise just no.

A nice, little, undemanding comedy from Germany. Above all, the cast of actors is worth watching the film. Sit together with your friends and some beer and this movie is the right one.
