Irre sind männlich

I'm glad that this is yet another decent German comedy, where they realised that neither just a witty premise nor good production values alone make enjoyable entertainment. It kind of all comes together here, and makes for not overly demanding entertainment, that's not overly dumb either.

Daniel has a cute girlfriend who doesn't want to commit. His unhinged buddy finds out an easy strategy for Daniel to meet other women (and for himself to get laid a lot): Go to psychotherapy workshops, pretend that you're either a zookeeper or a surgeon, and talk about your issues -- hey presto. Needless to say, and in stark contrast to reality, those "psycho chicks" are all total foxes with insatiable sex drives. Unfortunately, some of them are following a similar strategy so that the two BFFs soon find themselves in more than lukewarm water. After a good ride on this comedic train, Daniel finds true love and the movie becomes pretty trite from then on.

It's a bit out there and you can see where this is going (comically villain/BF, crazy best friend and all that included). But it's still a fun ride and it is fun watching it, if you allow it to. It's not very deep, though it does have its moments and the friendship between the two male leads feels real.

For a German comedy this is pretty well thought off and better than some other "star" vehicles (although there is a cameo of another big celebrity/actor in here too). The dialog scenes are OK, the ending might be a bit too much for some, but it still works just off the charm of the actors involved.
