TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

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.

Jerry It's not Das Boot, it's not Der Untergang, but that's not what we're looking for here. A simply great mindless romp through all what's funny with German (and not only German) tourists everywhere. Clichés abound, come with an open mind and you're sure to enjoy this. "Wir sind doch immer noch in Deutschland." Priceless.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Ballermann 6" is a German movie from 1997, so this one will have its 20th anniversary next year. The runtime here on IMDb says 95 minutes, but all the versions I found run considerably shorter, roughly 80 minutes namely. It is the second film (of so far 3) from the Tom Gerhardt / Hilmi Sözer film series in which they play two (nicely-speaking) very simple guys who are basically just interested in cars, female( breast)s and alcohol of course. Gerhardt is not only lead actor in here, but also writer and co-director. The other director is Gernot Roll, one of the finest cinematographers in German film history, but here he proves once again that directing is definitely not his strength. Then again, not even Spielberg could have directed a garbage script like this one here into a quality movie. I am tempted to call these Gerhardt/Sözer films live action versions of the Werner Beinhart movies. But as well as these work, it really only works as animation and not as live action. It certainly isn't helping either that Gerhardt's one (and only one) shtick gets repetitive so quickly. And it's never funny at all. The inclusion of cameos by known faces (to Germans) like Jürgen Drews (of course in a Ballermann film), Ottfried Fischer or Uwe Ochsenknecht elevates the material only slightly, maybe from 100% crap to 99% crap. In any case, this film never should have been made after how bad the first one was and even after this second film they did not understand it and made a third film (hopefully the last) not too long ago actually. This trilogy is probably the worst German film has come up with in terms of all the trilogies that have been made in over a century. Shame on you Tom Gerhardt! Something good about this film here? That it runs for 80 minutes only and that's the only thing. It still felt like 2.5 hours. Stay far far away.

fabchief it is definitely not a film worth to see. There would be many chances to make a good movie out of this theme, but they were all lost. Sorry but it´s obviously not too easy for germans to make a good film, where they can laugh about themselves. There are very good german comedies, like "Der bewegte Mann" but this one is simply not good

teager Tommy and Mario got two last minutes ticket to the "Island of Gods" --- Mallorca. There they want to have the time of their life. Drunk all the time party and have nice girls. The two guys get in Mallorca in lot trouble. But no problem to get out of it. (See yourself in which crazy ways they do !) This Movie would be the most successful Comedy in world if all people in the world would understand german mentality and would know what Mallorca for germans is like ! If u understand german and u know a bit about it you will have the funniest 2 houres of ur life if you watch this movie ! I promise !
