Texas - Doc Snyder hält die Welt in Atem

either you hate or you love helge schneider. for those who like his humour, this movie is his best in my opinion. one strange gag(?) after another. what can i write about this movie? maybe that you don´t have to have a clear story, good actors or good cinematography to make people laugh!

First of all i have to say that i respect Helge Schneider for doing such crap, but i cant understand how someone can find anything interesting or funny about this movie without using drugs to be open minded enough (if you know what i mean).

And if i see which people like this film i am damn right with my opinion. Helge Schneider knows how to handle a very special kind of audience which is a lot to special for me.

Texas is the try to put in the plot which doesn't even really exist into a Western world where Doc Snyder is doing dull things with dull people. Wasn't able to find even one bit to laugh about but got headaches watching this.

After I had heard so much about that movie, I got me copy and watched it all through. I remember that I asked myself: "Did I miss the point? Is this supposed to be funny?" I didn't get that movie at all. However something drove me to watch the movie another 50 times and finally I think it's one of the funniest movies I ever seen. And I still have no idea why. Just phenomenal!

Either you love this movie, or you hate it. It depends on how you like the unique humour of the famous (or notorious) comedian and jazz-musician Helge Schneider. The story is practically nonexistent, and the whole movie seems to be made of out-takes and bloopers. The secret is that it works just like the recipe for success that brought Schneider a huge followership in German-speaking countries: "Turn Sh*t Into Gold!" This movie is made so carefully and outrageously bad that it turns out good again. Previous experience in the boundaries of the Schneider universe and excellent skills in German are a must for enjoying this little masterpiece.

This movie is great, and it becomes greater with every time you watch it. I watched it 20 times (or more) and still discover new jokes. If you, for example, watch the scene in which Doc Snyder talks to God about Texas (handmade by God) and then causes the earthquake to kill the inhabitants of Texas (God:"Wat' machste?" Doc Snyder: "Erdbeben"). It is one of the best scenes of a movie that only has scenes other great movies have one or two of. Watch the movie, and watch it often! Some of the other comments say, if you don't like the first 20 minutes, quit. This could by right, if you are not a fan you'll hate it. But if you never watch it you can't know whether you are a fan or not. And if you are a fan, you will! watch the movie 20 times.
