Hammerharte Jungs

Unfortunately, "Hard Feelings" falls short of its superficial presentation. The sexist undertones are evident and contribute equally to both the amusement and alienation of the audience. The film relies on cheap jokes at the expense of women and perpetuates stereotypical notions of masculinity. Instead of offering intelligent humor, the film sinks into disrespectful and unimaginative moments.

Even if one assumes the film's intention is to parody questionable male images, it still misses the opportunity to deconstruct or question these clichés in a humorous way. Instead, it remains superficial and delivers a stale portrayal of gender roles.

Overall, "Hard Feelings" is a disappointing comedy that is clichéd, sexist, and tailored for toilet humor. It lacks an intelligent approach to dealing with the themes at hand. For a wide audience that values respectful and sophisticated entertainment, this film is definitely not recommended. The sexist overtones and shallow humor are major drawbacks.

This has to be one of the best films I've viewed in a long time. Firstly, it's funny as heck, with it showcasing life as a teen who's experiencing puberty. It admittedly get's less funny as the film progresses, but that's only due to the wider focus on the storyline and so is no reason to critique this movie. There's plenty of comedic value to be had, although the entire subject of comedic value is subjective in itself. The acting is well done, with many scenes and cinematic effects foreshadowing what's to come in the film. It can make it predictable but in a predictably humorous way. There are some negatives to this movie which I won't outline here, but overall it was thoroughly engaging and enjoyable to watch.

I think the only reason most people don't like this movie is because it's German, and that's really childish like come on it's a good movie, one of the best German ones, I mean it's not "all quiet on the western front" but cut it some slack. I feel like most people reviewing this movie is 25yrs + and they say it's a bad teen movie. As a teen myself I approve of this movie, it might be a little to much sexual activity , but I can look aside that. The main characters I did truly like they are played by good actors and they deliver them well. It was a really weird movie, but a fun time none the less.

Can't wait to read what other people thought about this.

I'm going to write my thoughts and maybe an opinion.

I can't believe, that a country as open in their sexuality as Germany made this movie. I wasn't expecting hardcore, but considering that I've seen t.v commercials in Germany that include unnecessary nudity this seems to be a Sunday morning for kids.

It's supposed to be about sex and the hormonal rage in your teen years. But other than the language there's nothing you haven't seen before.

There's no nudity, well...just buttocks, but considering that is about genitals talking to their people you might imagine it was going to be funny...but it's not.

Tries to give you the American Pie vibe, but it's more like the Adam Sandler movies.

If you like the idea of genitals talking, you are better off watching Big Mouth... At least that cartoon series is funny and much daring and bold.

I asked my wife if she had ever been watching a bad movie but kept watching hoping that it will get better..but it never does?

This is that kind of movie, it had many opportunities to be more interesting or substantial, but it kept scattering in multiple direction, some quite implausible (Paula on the bridge??) At that age we were all very confused, lost, turkeys as my principal used to call us. Charly seems to be from another planet, not funny I have to give the writers credit for getting the correct name of a woman's external genitalia . It is "vulva" NOT VAGINA, and for the emphasis on solidarity with and not judguing our peers instead of shaming and humiliating them. I am not sure that our adolescents will enjoy this movie as one of the reviewers suggested.
