I wanted to but couldn't!

Excellent but underrated film

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

I really liked this movie. It is easy. Sometimes such light comedies. Well-spent time. The only negative - a bit absurd in the beginning. The rest at a very high level. Especially the characters and scenery. In Russia, too, mimic Shrek - mixed Russian culture with the idea of this masterpiece. But understand that Russian culture without foreign ideas is as much attractive and organic. I think that the German culture, especially the characters with their unique, will look much better without mimicking American hits.German culture contains a lot of images and ideas, unlike the American culture, which has been depleted and becoming banal. Thank you, Michael Herbig. Thank to German cinema. In Russia it is very loved and appreciated.

I wasn't expecting too much when we watched this film and was pleasantly surprised by the result. There has been some negative comments in the media about this film which I find a bit unjustified. It is more a children's film than Bully's previous films and should be judged as such (although there are some lovely double entendres for the grown-ups - the one about trimming the emporer's mother's bush springs to mind). I think the media critics were expecting something different but the normal viewers were more than happy and this is reflected by the fact that the film won the Bavarian Audience Award. I found it way better than (T)raumschiff Period 1 and it had the whole family laughing; it's a bit absurd and nonsense (schmarnn!) but that's the beauty of it.

This film is a breath of fresh air for German comedy. After watching it last night, i find my self still laughing, if you liked the silly humor of 'Hot Shots' or 'Airplane', this is for you.The animation is on par with (if not better than) 'shrek'. This is a fairy tale Disney can only wish to make, a true 'one for the family'.The jokes are thick and fast, and for the most part, refrain from being crude.I gave this an eight, due to the fact that, Bully is Lissy. The facial features although excellent, are those of a man, and tend to take you out of the film. To have the main character created from scratch would have added that little bit more.That aside, give it shot, you wont be disappointed!

I cannot agree to the previous reviewer's statement! I have been in this movie with a friend and I have enjoyed the movie a lot, in fact serveral times, the whole audience in the room have been laughing! It's incredibly funny from the first "house rules" introduction to the final "The End" "(T)raumschiff Surprise" was indeed ridiculous but Lissi und der wilde Kaiser and very nice and clever jokes through the whole film. It's especially great for people who love sarcastic humour (which I seriously do) =) )It tops even Shrek in my eyes. Hoping for a follow-up to this movie!
