it's not that bad!

Okay, just one more german comedy movie - that's what I thought in the beginning. But 'Alles Bob' surprised me in a positive way. This movie has it's highlights, and it's big fun to watch Bob and his problems. The plot is thinner than october ice, but who cares?! About one hundred minutes of entertainment, with plenty of leisure time for the brain. The actors gave a solid performance, with no serious oscar-chances (or chances for ANY award worldwide!), but good enough for me. Just one more german comedy, as I said - not the best, but I think not the worst too. P.S. The slight racism was not necessary - I know some turkish guys who aren't criminal! But it seems like 'Alles Bob' wants us to believe that all turks are stupid and violent. I wasn't amused 'bout that.
