This movie is an example of how good comedy made in Germany can be. Young actors (back then the upcoming new German stars), funny, yet believable situations and characters which have not been overdone or seem crude. No matter if gay or straight, if you are not biased against German comedy (or maybe even if you are, and rightly so), watch this one. If you liked "In And Out" and "The Birdcage", you will surely like "Der Bewegte Mann". Maybe it's not as glamorous or exalted like it's US counterparts - after all, we are conservative here ;-) - it's still worth watching. My rating: 8.5 out of 10.
