It might be half brothers, but it doesn't do things half .. well you know where this would go. Having said that, the movie itself has a light tone to it and while it is not a masterpiece of cinema, it never set out to be one. It only set out to entertain you. And this it does and a very fine job it does too with it, thank you very much.
There are things here that are not politically correct, so if you are easily offended maybe this is not for you. It does play with stereotypes and it does have a lot of fun with it. The three main actors do give the impression they know each other for a long time or at least will stay friends a long time after the movie is done. What you can tell for certain too: They had a lot of fun making this and it does show on screen ... in a good way

German Comedy has a bad Reputation, this is why.
Terrible Writing, even worse Acting, worst thing about this Movie is the "acting" of Fahdi Yarim, got to be his darkest hour.

Would have been more entertaining had it been half an hour shorter. Had it's fun moments but also lots of scenes that were unnecessary. I almost turned it of around the middle because i got bored, towards the end the story finally picked up some speed. Overall it was ok.
Hollywood's attempt to tug on the viewer's emotional heartstrings to push an open borders policy. It comes complete with a lot of anti-American rhetoric and stereotype bashing.
I assume the writers are hoping that the audience won't notice that the father didn't have time to make amends for his kids, but he had loads of of time to set up an elaborate scavenger hunt with all sorts of things associated with it.

- TriviaChristian Alvart changed the name of the (real) Subwaystation where U-Bahn-Lemmele resides from "Mohrenstrasse" to "Möhrenstrasse". The former is an old, somewhat racist term for a black person, the latter a word for a carrot.
