More lamebrain jokes and sledgehammer slapstick in the worst tradition of German comedy, along with rampantly bad acting, terrible dialogue and a pseudo storyline on which to hang one weak gag after another.
Of course, the three comedians-screenwriters love what they're mocking and about every tenth joke is admittedly mildly funny in a guilty-pleasure way, but, all in all, it's strictly puerile and embarrassing nonsense without any sense of character and situational comedy.
Watch one of the sixties Edgar Wallace flicks instead. They're much funnier... unintentionally so.

It's quite a refreshing mad comedy coming from Germany. I never thought the Germans and the English would ever come together in a comedy. The music theme is fantastic. I mostly liked the use of Madness hit songs (also in Der Wixxer!) and the new NW5 which is truly a classic. Neues vom Wixxer has a bit of everything really: a bit of the Pink Pather,a wink at James Bond and a twist of Kafka's Angel of Death. It quite reminds me of the way they did those old films in the 60s. It wasn't about complicated computer graphics but rather some good acting and a genuine plot.
Nice touch there.
