Chaos - sweet?
19 January 2021
Crazy chaos and probably not that sweet for most. At least that's what I'm thinking. I mean it starts off with one of the best known - well native Americans in German film history called Winnetou. Now of course that was a timely reference back then and some may not really get it nowadays. But it is nice to see the actual actor reprising his famous role. It's not nearly as nice seeing Gottschalk trying to be Old Shatterhand. Actually it is painful, even if it is meant to be funny.

There are many 80s references and depending on your taste and liking that will flow with you or it won't. From including Michael Winslow (of Police Academy fame) to references to shows and things that were quite "hot" back then (like Miami Vice). The actors obviously had a lot of fun doing this and some of it does translate onto the screen ... not all just some. Of course if you don't mind, you probably will like it more than what I've rated it, but those not even familiar with some of the stuff mentioned here, it may be quite the torture watching this ... (and they did a sequel to this? I guess it was easy just throw anything at the wall and see what sticks ... ah well!)
