Werner - Eiskalt!

This movie was something I was looking forward to, and couldn't wait for its release to DVD. However, the crude humor and all the other parts of the original seem to be lacking from most of the film. The beginning looked promising, but as it progressed I was disappointing. Not saying there weren't parts that gave a good laugh or two because it did have them, its just not the constant rolling on the floor laughing we come to expect. And there were many of the scenes were from old movies, the movie seemed to burrow old laughs. I think its safe to say the everyone loved all the original Werner movies and this one didn't live up to its name. I just hope that this doesn't indicate the death or Werner for good. He is loved by many. Its worth a watch but just don't expect one like the original.

Yes, I am (resp. used to be) a fan of the Werner movies.

Maybe, because I grew up with the first ones or maybe because I like crude jokes and do not compare Werner with serious blockbusters like other people do.

But even with a lot of Bölkstoff (Beer), it is nearly impossible to get your intellectual level down to the level of Werner 5. While there where some decent parts in the beginning, the laughs of the audience faded away after some time which means that even the fans of the series - and there were surprisingly many people in the hall - realized that it's just about to die. Or maybe they just ran out of beer.

The life action parts are far beyond trash, but not as charming as in the original Werner. I do not remember that many comic scenes, because I was drunk as hell, but I can tell that they really lack actual jokes. If you liked the trailer, you may laugh at some scenes, but for me, the strange characters and funny voices (Röhrich!) are the only elements that save the movie from getting a 1/10 from me.

Compared to Werner 4 which almost made me choke, because I had to laugh so hard, this one is really really disappointing.

R.I.P. Werner

This is basically a rehash of Beinhart! That focuses more on Brösel than the Werner animation, the real entertainment. I hated Beinhart and I hated this.

Brösel's story is so pointless to the Werner plot and makes everything feel incoherent. It's amazing they pushed on after Beinhart but I'm glad they did because we got the other all animated Werner movies. I guess we've come full circle, beging with a terrible movie and end with a terrible movie in the franchise. A shame, I was really looking forward to a new (to me) Werner movie.

Werner Eiskalt unfortunately marks a new low for the series. The live action parts (yes, it has live action parts again) are far below any normal standard of acting or comedy. We have to watch Rötger Feldmann and his buddies share their memories about a moderately interesting motorbike race in the late 80s. Werner being his alter ego, the episodes are illustrated with the appropriate characters of the Werner universe, but apparently nobody noticed that many of them are not funny. The whole thing feels like a making-of or promotional TV special rather than an actual movie with a plot. It probably cost next to nothing to produce. Several clips from previous movies are cut into the film, which makes it appear recycled. It's just sad.
