    It's a winner

    This film won a price at the TIFF. Unfortunately this is not the Toronto International Film Festival, but Tagore International Film Festival in India.

    They give 47 prices EACH Month. That's over 500 per year..so you can see, it's easy to win there.

    I want my money back

    I bought this film, because the director said it is played in several festivals and also won tons of prices. That's the truth, but once you check the festivals, you find out, you never heard of them and some might only exist for collecting the entrance fee. So the filmmakers got fooled. And they are not the only ones. I got fooled for buying this. Unhappy made me unhappy and there is a reason why German festivals refuse to play this

    One good reason to watch this

    There is one good reason to watch this and that's the acting.

    He is at its best AGAIN.

    The guy is a creative genius when it comes to unusual parts.

    Just the way he speaks is amazing. He makes you feel every word he say.

    Bubu Bangalore is a magician acting-wise and he should play in bigger movies than this.

    There is another guy in the movie, I never heard of, but Goerschs acting falls flat compared to Bangalore.

    The rest of the film is also not that great, but if you are a Bubu fan, go watch this.

    There should be a Zero

    I watched this film at a festival in India and it really is not good. It's not funny, not sad, not exciting, no good dialogue (I had trouble understanding the English), no good characters, no good camera, no good acting, While I think it's unfair to boo a movie or a person, there were some boos in the audience after it finished

    It's getting worse

    One would think, that an actor, director or writer gets better over time, but that's not the case here. Thomas had 20 years and countless movies to improve, yet all he does, he does worse. His films won't show new skills but rather the state of his soul life, which is on the decline for years. He falls apart and so do his movies. He won't listen to critics (in his little own world they are all haters) and he hardly finds anybody to work with him. Everything can be seen here.
