7 Zwerge - Der Wald ist nicht genug

I've seen the first of the dwarf-Movies and sometimes I had little fun watching it. There are many famous TV/Comedyactors appearing in the first part and presented, in fantasy costumes, typical little episodes of their Stand-Up-Program and exactly that is the problem the second movie has to struggle with. Everything was already there....nothing new to obtain. You're familiar with most of the often boring and dumb "jokes" and you always feel like their goal was to put in every Comedylooser of the last decade who wants to get back on stage. There's nothing important about the story: typical fairy-tale story of Rumpelstiltskin, without any importance. I expected something like that but that's nothing I could complain about. I'm actually complaining about the lazy story writers who had an entire background story; their only business was to get many jokes and parodies inside but they didn't get it anyway. This crap is except the great appearance of Helge Schneider a total waste of time and money.(if you don't like him then remove 2 points of my evaluation) If you like to save your money and get bad jokes then watch the crap that's broad casted every Friday evening on SAT1 or RTL for free. I'm sure you will recognize some "laugthers" I saw last night in cinema.

There are a lot of highly talented filmmakers/actors in Germany now. None of them are associated with this "movie".

Why in the world do producers actually invest money in something like this this? You could have made 10 good films with the budget of this garbage! It's not entertaining to have seven grown men running around as dwarfs, pretending to be funny. What IS funny though is that the film's producer (who happens to be the oldest guy of the bunch) is playing the YOUNGEST dwarf.

The film is filled with moments that scream for captions saying "You're supposed to laugh now!". It's hard to believe that this crap's supposed to be a comedy.

Many people actually stood up and left the cinema 30 minutes into the movie. I should have done the same instead of wasting my time...

Pain!

This is a German comedic twist on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in German language. There are a myriad of famous German actors cast as Dwarfs and support characters as well as an awesome portrayal of the evil queen superbly played by Nina Hagen in contrast to her beautiful and talented real-life daughter Cosma Shiva Hagen who plays Snow White. There are opportunities for Cosma to show that she has much of her mother's exceptional talent in singing and theatrics. It is a delightfully lighthearted and enjoyable fable brought to life by exceptional actors. If you like the storyline or Nina Hagen and you speak German you will enjoy this rendition.

I watched this film with friends and we all enjoyed it. I am wondering if the negative comments have at all to do with an English translation version - I have only seen it in German. I would suppose that the people who hate this film would also not understand or enjoy vaudeville or other, absurd comedy like Laurel & Hardy, The Three Stooges, Jerry Lewis & Dean Martin, etc. Monty Python? Doubtful. It seems that contemporary comedy has to be slick and profane and people have simply forgotten how to laugh at people being purposely silly. Although they were a bit political and off-color, I think the Not Ready For Primetime Players (remember them? They were the group generally considered wildly talented who started Saturday Night Live)were all pretty silly - and hilarious. DO NOT ignore this film on the not-at-all-objective reviews given here.

WARNING! Don't even consider watching this film in any form. It's not even worth downloading from the internet. Every bit of porn has more substance than this wasted piece of celluloid. The so-called filmmakers apparently have absolutely no idea how to make a film. They couldn't tell a good joke to save their lives. It's an insult to any human being. If you're looking for a fun-filled movie - go look somewhere else.

Let's hope this Mr. Unterwaldt (the "Jr." being a good indication for his obvious inexperience and intellectual infancy) dies a slow/painful death and NEVER makes a film again.

In fact, it's even a waste of time to WRITE ANYTHING about this crap, that's why I'll stop right now and rather watch a good film.
