"Ever see a Turkish guy with a baby carriage?" Or a sliced-off head praising a doner kebab sandwich?
Ibo Secmez (Denis Moschitto), a young German whose parents came from Turkey, has one ambition, to make the first German kung fu movie. His girlfriend, Titzi (Nora Tschirner), has a German mother and a great desire to be an actress. In this movie, two things happen that are going to change a lot of plans. Ibo's uncle, who owns King of Kebab, a kebab joint in Hamburg, pays Ibo to make a television commercial for his place. It's not long before Ibo's commercial is shown...with a kung fu showdown at the counter, with feet flying, with swords spinning and with the camera focusing in on a great looking, juicy doner kebab. Customers rush to the place (or at least they do until they actually taste some of the food, like tripe soup with testicles). The second thing to happen is that Ibo and Titzi find out they've unexpectedly collaborated on a creation of their own. Titzi is pregnant and decides she wants to keep the baby.
What follows is an undemanding and amusing comedy that...
Stupid and fuuny
Kind of reminded me of Johan of Adam Sandler. The movie used a lot of Hollywood elements, and few American cultural references [for example, the hippie girl character in Humburg.] Of course, this is a funny movie that has been on the borderline of absurd humor, from beginning to end. But funny after all. You won't regret it. Totally nothing serious here.
Döner!
I got this for my family because even though my mother is a German native, we have a lack of German things to watch around the house. My family didn't know what to make it of at first but by the end everyone was having a great time.
