Sun Alley

A group of kids grow up on the short, wrong (east) side of the Sonnenallee in Berlin, right next to one of the few border crossings between East and West reserved for German citizens. The antics of these kids, their families, of the "West German" friends and relatives who come to visit, and of the East German border guards, all serve to illustrate the absurdity of everyday life on the Sonnenallee, and therefore throughout the former East Germany.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

This German movie ist NOT worth watching. In general, I do not like German films very much. This film is a fine example, why: Mediocre actors in a cheap atmosphere with a non-existing director...A couple drives to their weekend-cottage, one final time: The woman wants to sell it, the man do not, because he has too many personal connections with the place. When a duo of intruders shows up, everything seems to escalate... ...or at least you expect it to. But it does not really: Slow, very slow is this movie, and the long awaited ending comes up after only 90 minutes real time. No, this picture misses nearly everything a good movie consists of. But I will give it 2 of 10- for two good lines in the whole film...
