1960's Ostalgie

I first became aware of this movie from the excerpts presented in "East Side Story", a documentary about Eastern Block musicals. As an American

who's interested in East German pop culture, I found "Heißer Sommer" quite enjoyable -- the scenes set in Leipzig and Berlin showed the 1960's socialist architecture (mostly crumbling or demolished now) in new condition, and the Baltic scenes contrasted that with the traditional German architecture. Plus, there's Trabants galore throughout the picture, if you're a fan of that classic East German automobile. And the songs (particularly during the campfire scene) were actually quite good.

groovy

"Hot summer" will appeal to those who are fans of retro "Frankie and Annette" movies. The East Germans made a valliant attempt to create a "go go" sixties movie. The singing and dancing was lead by East German heart throbs: Frank Schoebel and Chris Doerk. Their voices were amazing and the choreography was comparable to Hollywood standards. Furthermore, it is a curiosity to see how the East Germans "party". Although the plot is weak and corny, "Hot Summer" is a feel-good movie full of 60's nostalgia. The songs are fun and the guys and girls are cool.

Feel good teen movie with less GDR-related clichés one would expect

If you like chick flicks and an adorable cast plus bubble gum entertainment, this might be a movie for you. It's a cult classic here in the Neue Bundesländer and my parents even owned the soundtrack back in the 1960s and 1970s. Don't expect so much GDR-stereotypes but Musical-stereotypes in general. The film was filmed in the region I grew up in so it's way nostalgia for me - even though I was born in 1981. The stars - Chris Doerk and Frank Schoebel - were an item back then and very popular actors/singers in the GDR. This movie has been turned into a stage musical for the summer 2005 season and it'll take place by the Baltic sea. I am sure that all the (old and new) fans are going to come out and enjoy the show.

Cheap Commercialism is Not Indignant to Capitalism

This is undoubtedly the worst movie I've ever seen. I can't get it through my brain how a director could seriously produce such rubbish. The film has no plot, there is no character development, the choreography is nothing better than third-grade mimicking, the throw-away music is absolutely atrocious and, well, whatever else needs to be considered when judging the quality of a film, is without a doubt terrible here too.

I wonder how the director was able to sleep to night.

Frankie and Annette go Commie!

Imagine Frankie and Annette taking a vacation with nine guys and 10 girls. Now imagine them as Communist youth, spreading the joys of collectivism and the freedom to have sex with whomever they please! Unbelievably catchy songs, surreal choreography (including dancing haystacks), and a kitschy script make this a must-see for anyone who loves tractor musicals.
