Some things I liked some I did not.
Let's be realistic.
Beautiful, moving film.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
View MoreI have never laughed that hard in a movie. The jokes where perfectly timed. The actors where incredible. All those references where awesome. I think I will never find another movie like this. I can't understand why it is so underrated. If you have humor, you'll love all of it. Every second was gold. This movie changed my perspective on everything in my entire live. Just watch it and you will have fun. I would love to see another movie like this again. Thanks for watching, click like and leave a comment below, i'll appreciate it.Not really. I have never seen something more horrible than that. I don't get the million dollar budget and why one of the best comedians of German history plays part in this thing. The jokes where not timed at all, or overused. The story was predictable from head to toe and was not even creative in any way. The Youtubers aren't funny in general, but this is the top of the cake. Only one thing I liked, was the ending, when It was finally over.

Its a major stinker. Not one of the kinds like "The room", "Turkish star wars" and the likes were they fail because they barely know how to hold a camera. Germany has a long history of spitting out a lot of bad comedy movies even since the 1950ies or so. Maybe so because in this genre you can - and a lot of people did - earn some cash with mediocre stuff. Made by you-tubers or not, "Kartoffelsalat" steps right into that heritage. Its not even unintentionally offensive like other bad movies. Everything is in there: - jokes (and we talk of a lot of stuff here) which were already lame in the time of our grandmothers and at which only six-year-olds would laugh at. - washed up older comedians and actors like Otto Waalkes which don't even seem to notice what a shite movie they are entering because they sold their last integrity years ago. While the young ones are so deluded that they think those cameos make the movie "cooler" - the old Seltzer/Friedman-thing of senseless spoofing the hell out of what its in their little minds ("Breaking bad" here, for example). One German celebrity named Jenny Elvers even spoofs her own former problems with alcoholism, yay. - a premise that is so unoriginal that you barely can believe this is done by young guys and not some old studio hacks. The premise - Zombies in a school setting fighting against losers - was even already done like this in another German called "Die Nacht der lebenden Loser"/Night of the living dorks. That was a mediocre movie, but this geniuses here set the bar much lower - an all-around atrocious cast. We seen more famous you-tubers fail when they do a movie, same here. I did not even see a video of one of their channels, and maybe they are more bearable there. Especially the main actor is clowning around in a super annoying way.
View More"Kartoffelsalat" is a relatively new German movie that features some of Germany's most known Youtube personalities as actors. The film's writer director is Michael David Pate and it will be difficult for him to come up with a worse film at any point in his career. This is described as a comedy and horror movie here on IMDb. Is it scary? Absolutely not. Is it funny? Absolutely unfunny. Lead actor Torge Oelrich is a disaster from start to finish. This film has only been for the most despicable of reasons. There can never have been any intention of coming up with a quality movie, it was all about cashing in. Most of the people in here have hundreds of thousands or even millions of subscribers on the world's most famous video site. So maybe these would also pay to see these people in a theater? I am not sure how commercially successful this film turned out, but it truly is a disastrous watch. But I am not too disappointed in these Youtube stars. Most of them use their channels for stupid contents anyway and also promote products for which the companies pay them to say they really use them. So no surprise these scam artists came up with another failure here.This film also is going nowhere. At times, it seemed like a 100% parody, at other times it took itself seriously. As this was only rarely the case, it would have been fine if the parody aspects managed decent humor, but they did not. None of the dialogs were smart or witty. "Breaking Bad" references on several occasions were completely embarrassing and the way they tried to channel Jella Haase in "Fack Ju Göhte" was the worst of the worst.The ones who really disappoint me that they took part in this endeavor are the real actors, such as Norbert Heisterkamp, Katy Karrenbauer or Wolfgang Bahro. With Jenny Elvers and Tobias Schenke I am not surprised at all. These 2 never had any talent. But the biggest disappointment for me is Otto Waalkes, one of Germany's best comedians of all time and a true inspiration for young rising comedians. I have no idea what he was thinking to appear in this film and also work on it behind the camera. Why Otto why? These people are not worth your attention. Fitting that the production company is called "Take 25" as it could very well be true that it may have taken them 25 takes on several occasions to actually get a scene done due to the lack of talent from most cast members. And it still looks like crap. Terrible movie. One of the worst ever made? Probably not. But still really really bad. Highly not recommended.
View MoreThere are many comedy movies in Germany that are just plain awful, unfunny and unnecessary. And what can I say about this one ? Its plain awful, unfunny and unnecessary. The story is absurdly simple and offers no creativity or even some clever plot elements. Its predictable and just not funny. The characters are all stereotypes with unfunny catch phrases. Its an long Youtube sketch that is not worth your time or money. I mean when even the fans say that this is unfunny than it must mean something. The comedy is just so bad timed and uncreative it is out of this world. Voting: 1/10 Really bad stuff I cant understand when someone would laugh about that.
