Hard to find a unified vote...

Since the film is divided in animated and real sequences with a tremendous difference in quality, it is very hard to cast a vote that covers both.

The animated part is hilarious (especially the football-match) and deserves definitely 8/10 if not better. A must see!

The real part is a great opportunity to get a new beer from the refrigerator or to carry the old one to the toilet. It is so boring and unfunny, a 1/10 would be overly gracious.

My recommendation is: get it on DVD or Video and skip anything that is not animation.
