Jetzt oder nie - Zeit ist Geld

Three lusty, old women have saved a lot of money. It´s their last big dream to make a journey around the world on an ocean steamer. They go to a bank and want pay in their money - but just in that moment the bank is robbed out. Their money is gone! So what? They decide to rob out the bank by themselves. It´s now or never...

I think it´s a miracle that this film was realized. A story about three old ladies robbing out a bank? Nobody had the hope that it would be successful. The only one who believed in the script was Til Schweiger and so he decided to produce it with his firm "Mr.Brown-entertainment" (a figure in Tarantinos "Reservoir dogs"...). Director Lars Büchel didn´t make the mistake to create the characters just as joke figures. That would have been to easy. You don´t laugh ABOUT the three, you laugh WITH them, and that´s what takes them so believable and touching. A bittersweet movie about getting older.

I just watched the premiere here in Hamburg and I've gotta say: JETZT ODER NIE is film making at it's BEST! In many scenes you just don't know if you should be laughing or crying... or both at the same time?

Director Lars Büchel is genius! JETZT ODER NIE is Oscar-worthy touching entertainment, the soundtrack is stunning and the entire movie is very beautiful photographed. Of course, congratulations to the actresses and actors too!

JETZT ODER NIE is one the the BEST German movies ever and even Hollywood could learn from it. A MUST-SEE for E-V-E-R-Y-B-O-D-Y!!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch an Lars und sein Team, für einen erstklassigen Job!

Now or never ... well some things are easy to boil down. And in this case it is about three ... older women and their last dreams and I guess hopes. Whatever ones age, the mind always stays young. And wants more - like new experiences. And after a lifetime of saving up money, our three main ladies think they deserve something nice.

Well let's just say they don't seem to have luck on their side. But that is only the inciting incident that kicks off the idea or their plan to punish those who did them wrong. Not so much out of spite I reckon, but because as the title suggests: Time is money ... and they ain't got much of either ... Relatively funny to say the least and really bold to have really old main characters at the center of the story! Kudos all around
