What I like most about this movie is that it doesn't waste my precious time with a needlessly lengthy build-up. We find out who the characters are, why they hate each other, and how it could ever come to this. That's good enough for me. It takes about six seconds before the action starts, seriously. The script proves to be pretty good, there are plenty of exciting turns in the story, and the action scenes are often interrupted by some pretty intriguing character studies. Or the other way around, depending on how you look at it. I especially like the way Hermann is portrayed, kind of a clichéd villain at times, but still, could easily exist. I also enjoyed the grandpa, he doesn't really get to do much but he steals every scene he's in. Well, he does get to throw a grenade, which is always pretty awesome. There's also some comic relief involved, and it's perfectly timed in this dark tale. The only thing I didn't care for was the ending, but after 90 minutes I found it hard to be mad at this movie.

A German black social comedy. Armin Rohde as solid as a rock in his depiction here. And the movie would've stand or fall with his performance! He is the central character, corner stone or main "planet" (everything orbits around him)!

The German title translates into "The Blood Wedding", so it's clear from the start, that there will be trouble. But it's the little things that sum up to make this a really good movie. I would've liked it, if the movie would've had more black humor in it. As it is, it's more a social satire spiced up with black humor. But that works too, especially if you like that sort of "entertainment"! :o)

The comic book by Greg and Van Hamme, on which this movie is based, is the best I've ever read. Unfortunately this movie doesn't do it justice. The comic is not a black comedy but a serious story, especially the father of the groom and the main waiter in the inn are not funny at all. Also a lot of the subplots that made the comic so interesting are not in the movie. What I especially liked about the comic is the credibility of the characters and though the acting is not bad they never seem to develop. Still it's not a bad movie, but I had expected better a better product with this excellent raw material. I hope that the remake that is current in production stays closer to the original story, it certainly deserves it.

I've seen many good movies but this one was really great. Armin Rohde plays the role of the rich man who doesn't know a words like "unsuccesful" or "no" so realistic that he really scared me. I mean who goes for a hunt after church on his way to his own son's wedding dinner. The hole film is really funny as long as you know that your own father or stepfather doesn't look OR act like the character Armin Rohde plays.

The conflicts in the film don't seem unrealistic. The setting, the hotel and restaurant, are wonderful. The actors fulfill their roles in a way that is not too soap- or sitcom-like and once again it is a pity that most German movies are not translated into English.

If you liked "Meet the Fockers" you will like that one too.

"Die Bluthochzeit" makes us remember, that the German cinema can produce very dramatic and funny comedies. It tells the story of a young man, who wants to marry his great love. His father organizes a wedding party at an hotel, which he wants to buy. But the owner doesn't want to sell it. That's why the father cancels the party. Then he doesn't want to pay for the meal, because it doesn't taste perfectly. That's why the owner locks the toilet, while the wife is cleaning her skirt, there. Now he has two "hostages". This is the beginning of a war between a family and a matron of a hotel and his barkeeper.

Its a very funny movie and i would advise to watch it!
