This film, shot on a video, is hugely overrated by some intellectual filmmakers. Start with the story: My God, young students who hate the establishment, or better anyone who made something out of their life, go on a rampage through some high class houses, when the owners aren't home. Until one day, when they kidnap a successful business man. They supposedly get a kick out of it. Hey in what year do we live in? 1968? No, this is not a historic drama, but a 2004 film. Apparently a hit in Cannes... well the French... What a drawback to the boring cinema of the late 70s… Worst aspect about the film is the camera though. Hand held video, that was blown up on 35 mm. There is no way you can't get sea sick after watching this student film. 124 minutes! Give me a break! 3 outa 10 for the effort - 1 outa 10 for the lame story and less than zero for the DOP.

How low can Doris D. get? How much money do, Uwe O. and Heiner L. need? Answere these questions please. This remake is an insult to anyone who loves movies! Nothing more, nothing less! A DV Camera has no place on a move screen! Honestly who greenlighted this home made move? Get a life and avoid at all cost!! Heiner and Uwe, do commercials instead! Doris, never ever... Give me my money back! Constantin, well you need it to blow up your portfolio.

What a production, what a waste of screen-time and money. Here is what some european so called producer think, of a scifi movie. Take former model, Alexandra Kamp, pair a with an US c-class actor and get one of film business most notorious producer Harry A. Towers. Towers then finds some obscure munich based prod. house, Tandem communication, Rola Bauer, and then mix it all up with no script whatsoever and you'll get "Sumuru" - a priceless gem among the worst movies ever done! Get a live people, and do something else, whatever you do, no movies please!! To top everything, producers went to South Africa for filming, what you see on screen is one giant sand hole, where the "action" takes place, between extremely bad actors and extremely bad fx that any film student would do better.

This film is great for TV, ProSieben in Germany or RTL II, but the big screen - get over it, it's a waste of time and money. The story is way too predictable. Directing, please give us a break. Why is a film like this being so pushed by the press and the distribution company - avoid at all cost, otherwise you may think that all German comedys are stinkers like this piece of cinematic c***. Usually when the producers mother, Miss. Iris Berben, isn't in a film by her son, the moovie is a failure. I think Constantin Film, the German distributer has to watch out, what their portfolio is gonna look like in a couple of years - I mean stuff like this is not going to work on VIDEO and DVD. But it will have great ratings on RTL II.
