9/10
one of the best commentaries on early 8ties Munich
21 December 2005
it's quite (!!!) difficult for a non-German to get the point of this mid-8ties TV-series of Helmut Dietl, but i have to admit as a right now thirty-something that this is one of my best childhood/teenage TV-experiences ever. full of ironic Bavarian laissez-Faire, post-Schwabing wanna-be state-of-the-art chic, with a lot of tongue-in-cheek humor that only the people can relate to that actually have been there at that time.

nothing can beat "kir royal" just because it's so good. but right behind it's "monaco Franze".

also the acting of Helmut Fischer and Ruth-Maria Kubitschek is one of the performances displayed on German TV.

if you ever get hold of the DVD-version of this series you will laugh your ass off cos you get a grip of Bavarian thinking and lifestyle.

The Descent (2005)
8/10
incredible and atmospheric horror-flick
13 November 2005
Warning: Spoilers
hi guys, i just saw the flick one hour ago and i was really blasted. the claustrophobic atmosphere was awesomely filmed and you can enjoy quite a few very good shock moments until the story gets quite gory and even more exciting.

the over-all atmosphere of some creatures being in the cave is just overwhelming and creepy and spooky and the scene when the first of these creatures comes to sight through this video-camera is one of the most scariest moment n movie-theaters ever.

i'll rate this flick with 8 of 10 cos it left me really frightened and scared.

and you have to see this movie at your theater; maybe it will loose some of the atmosphere at home...

p.s. please ignore my bad English
