Review by kosmasp

This is really well made and told. The actors in it are really good - the music and the rap is ... tight as many would call it. That being said and while the movie is really good (not just for German standards), it does have quite a few flaws.

One of those is the cliche and predictability factor in this. We are so much more savvy than the characters that it sometimes almost hurts. But then again, we ened them to not see the things right in front of them. Masks on or off ... there is always a shield up to "protect" them and their feelings. And they have their reasons. But the essence and the message is a really good one - even if the "bad guy" in this almost goes way over the top towards the end - when it does not make much sense. Maybe it was the alcohol ... anyway, this is good entertainment and it tells you to be who you are ... although if you can rap and spit rhymes like the main character the question remains how you wouldn't have more courage in general ... looks are not everything, even if the movie may not be entirely clear on that message.
