Don't listen to the negative reviews

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

For some reason subtitle movies communicate better with me then movies in plain English. Madchen Madchen was seriously a crack up, but it was also serious in the sense that it dealt with teenage issues. Its not for everyone but give it a go, even just to give u a bit of a laugh. The characters were fantastic and communicate there roles to the audience well. This movie can also be a bit confusing as it is both serious and funny at the same time, but these two elements kind of complement each other. In my opinion I thought this movie was good, but still like I said not for everyones tastes. It does deal with teen issues to an extent but tends to exaggerates them a tad, issues such as sex, love, friendships, and bike riding are all part of this wacky take on teenage life in general.

Inken (Diana Amft) is an eighteen years old girl, frustrated for not having had an orgasm yet with her boy-friend. Her two best friends are Vicky (Felicitas Woll), who is in the same situation as Inken without knowing the pleasure of an orgasm, and the still virgin Lena (Karoline Herfurth). Inken and Vicky try to find a man or woman able to give pleasure to them while Lena has her heart broken by her boy-friend. "Mádchen, Mádchen" is a silly German comedy in the same structure of "American Pie". But this comedy is also very funny, having magnificent jokes and hilarious situations, and supported by a trio of gorgeous actresses: Karoline Herfurth, Diana Amft and Felicitas Woll are not only beautiful, but also very sexy and a colyrium for the men's eyes. The plot explores the insecurity of teenagers, their loves, rejections and findings. There are many hilarious scenes, such as when Inken has her first orgasm (it recalled me Meg Ryan in a restaurant in "Harry and Sally"); or when Inken's father arrives home and finds her date in a serious trouble. I have really found "Mädchen, Mádchen" a good entertainment. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Garotas Procuram..." ("Girls Look For...")

Some friends forced to see this film, and to be honest, I wasn't very ambitious about it, but what I saw really shocked me! How can people dare to make such a movie, which has no story, bad actors, an not one funny moment in it! There are so many people out there who have ideas to make good movies, and all you get to see is this piece of s... Even "American Pie" or "Scary Movie" were better than this!

As an avid hater of the German movie scene I was most surprised to see this really hilarious, light comedy about young girls in their raid for the lost orgasm. Director Dennis Gansel, totally unknown til this movie, succeeds in creating likeable characters and a decent plot which of course is all about love, rejection and the unbearable pains of puberty and adolescence, and which is taking place in an environment which could be just next door - a fact that may be the answer to why this movie is so charming in its simpleness. The gags are well-dosed, but are not getting too rude like many American comedies nowadays (Scary Movie comes to mind).Most noticeable are the young faces Gansel introduces to the big screen: Diana Amft, Karoline Herfurth and Felicitas Woll are totally convincing in their roles and a wonderful diversion from the omnipresent but so unpleasant diva of German film Katja Riemann. Gansels film does not use anyone of the nearly incestous German film avantgarde, and that's what makes this movie so fresh and joyful to watch. A fresh breeze is what German film needs since Soenke Wortmanns stopped doing independent movies - maybe Gansel is here to revitalize German comedy?
