    Funny Crime Movie With Dry, Self-Ironic Bavarian Humor

    I like these bavarian movies, which mostly always show a bizarre crime scene on these little fictional countryside villages. Franz Eberhofer, a little villages cop has to cope with the case, the circumstances and his father, who has a marihuana plantation, which isn't allowed in Germany, of course. His mother does the most typical meals of bavaria and any movie of this series has another meal's title, mixed with common music anglicisms. The humor is made of bavarian stereotypes. It's most funny when the people interact, specially Eberhofers friends and his chief, but also his family. It also becomes sometimes more serious, when the police work is in the focus. In Germany, the movies of this series are very succesful, because of it's dry and sometimes black humor. Clear recommendation.
