Storyline

The heroes from "Männerherzen - Men in the city" return and are searching for their "one and only true great love" more vigorously than ever, which also happens to be the name of Schlager singer Bruce Bergers new song. Günther, Niklas and Philip now work for Bruce's label and while their boss bites off "a bit" more than he can chew, Jerome is taking a sabbatical in the country at his parents' house. Niklas is playing the dating game while Philip becomes a father and Günther has very particular issues in his relationship. A truly great comedy for men and women with heart and mind.

Follow up

The first one was so successful, they had to make another one. And while the cover art/poster seems to be identical, it does build up on its characters and does not only copy and paste everything from part one. Having said that, there is still some major issues with some of the characters and they are not as funny as they were the first time around, which is a shame.

We also get fresh/new blood in this one. Still there is your old gang (from part 1) coming back, though I don't think it's that necessary to have seen the first movie to get this. But since the first one was better you may want to watch it anyway. For a German comedy this is pretty neat, usual flaws and all. But the actors make it look better than it actually is
