Dei Mudder sei Gesicht (1997) Online

Beware!!! "Boah fett - Dei Mudder sei Gesicht Part 2" is out now and everybody who liked the predecessor will love the sequel!!!!!!! But let´s start from the beginning: "Dei Mudder... " is made by five guys who know each other from school. One day they decided to make their own movie - just for fun and for themselves. Then it continued with 4 or 5 copies I think, and a few months later it became the biggest hype in the German movie underground. Everybody between 15 and 27 knows this film or has heard of it. Youths find it hip to talk with the slang of the characters, and their are also a lot of persons, who know the dialogues from inside out. "Dei Mudder..." got some bad critics, because it´s often said, that it is hostile to foreigners. But when you watch this film you recognize exactly that this movie is only a satire and a parody. I personally think it´s the ideal party movie - invite some friends, drink some beer and you will laugh so hard, I promise!!! Although this film has got nearly no plot, the special FX are home made and all is filmed with a handy cam. But "Dei Mudder..." takes his charm from the fact, that everything looks so cheap and stupid. I know a lot of people who hate this film and say this shot could be done by everyone. Well, they are probably right, but the fact, that a "primitive" work like this one reached such an immense success is nearly a phenomenon. And it´s one of the greatest honors for director/script writer/actor Simon Mora and his guys to be in the archives of IMDb!!! My rating: Beyond heaven and hell... (Cult factor: 101 %).

Oh my God! This movie is SO awfull, that is totally brilliant! Filmed with a Handycam, a fistfull of bucks and a few amateur actors, this is a classical B-movie. And a really bad one. But I laughed till I cried! It's so cheap, so stupid ... so excellent! The first 40 minutes are really cool, but to the end it gets more and more stupid. Well, but you gotta mention that this movie was made by a few german students, no professional equipment or something like that. Not even money. Slowly, everybody here in Germany knows that movie! Surprising, that these few students have such a big success with their work! Well, if you like selfmade movies, then you'll love this one!

This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I could hardly stay awake. The acting and the plot were horrible. I like B-movies, but this movie has nothing that could make me laugh or think about. OK, there were two or three funny moments at the beginning, so I have to give this movie 2 out of 10. If you really want to watch it, watch the first 10 minutes. After that you will get more and more disappointed while the movie runs.

Cult! Cult! Cult!

Everybody heard about this film, a lot of people saw it, and I think this film was and still is an influence for a whole generation, especially in German spoken countries! In fact, it is a trash movie with nearly no budget, with horribly bad effects and only filmed with a video cam. But that reeeeally doesn't matter. It's the weird dialogues, this sort of taken-from-real-life-humour, the cool soundtrack who make the film a real masterpiece! A real masterpiece! I could spontaneously mention so many scenes from this film which are so over the top funny, it's unbelievable! As I already said it influenced so many people I know in the way they are talking to each other, amazing.. I don't know any other film which had or has this effect to so many people.

Really, it's a great honour for the film crew to be mentioned at the IMDb! Nobody did ever think about that! Respect folks! One of the best comedies ever! Clearly 10 out of 10!

Sürk!!!

"Dei Mudder sei Gesicht" (roughly translated "your mother's face") is a German movie from 1997, so this one has its 20th anniversary next year. The duo who wrote this, directed it and also acts in it is Simon Mora and Hardy Strohn. It was the first film for both and stayed the only film for Strohn, while Mora kept making more movies about his trademark character Kermet Dünger. The quality of this 90-minute film however is pretty much what you would expect from the title. It is amateurish trash and it becomes painfully obvious how everybody involved with this project lacks talent in writing, camera work, acting and filmmaking in general. It does look extremely amateurish and you know immediately that nobody working on this one was really experienced in film.

Some people (also if you look at the rating) like it because it adds some charm that the ones who made this were still fresh and daring in their work, but I cannot share this opinion. There was hardly any scene that I found only mildly funny and the humor is even way below Mario Barth level. The main actor playing an older lady in a costume is a joke that only works for one or two scenes and it becomes embarrassing quickly afterward. The only thing positive you can say is probably that the people who made this never wanted it to becomes as famous as it did. So the ones who are to blame are the fans who shared this complete garbage movie. I recommend you to stay far far away and I have zero interest to see Mora's follow-up projects. At least, Strohn learned something from it. Watch something else instead.

First of all, let me underline, that Im not a great fan of political correctness. In fact I like satire or dark humor, even if it makes jokes out of minorities. The reason, why Im pretty sure, that this racist piece of work is not worth a look, is that it doesn't make fun of minorities to demonstrate their condition of living, their social circumstances or the way they are treated by society. Moreover it uses every stupid stereotype and prejudice to strengthen xenophobic feelings and reservations. Its really a pity, but not a surprise, that the other comments didn't get that point, cause we all had a cheap laugh. Congratulations.

I like dark humor and non-PC stuff, but not if it is with no purpose but to elevate yourself. Bashing a group of people without any trace of self-irony is crap.

There are people who could make concentration camp jokes funny, but whoever made this film unfortunately failed even in the VERY easy task of making fun about Turks in Germany. It is a very easy task, but if your are the Germany equivalent of an inbred redneck (=inbred Southerner from a village where virginity is often lost to farm animals) you certainly will fail at this and also at life. I have heard and seen so many funny stuff about minorities in Germany, but this "movie" (this piece of crap being listed here is an insult to the next worst movie) sucks like the calf the makers of this movie met some years ago.
