Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) This is a 15-minute short film from almost 20 years ago. For Peter Thorwart it was his second short film as a movie maker. Until this day, he is mostly known for his work on the script of "The Wave", one of Germany's most know movies to this day. Especially abroad. His work here was also pretty successful. This quarter of an hour served as the basis of a pretty successful feature film and even a television series afterward. Thorwarth also played a central character in bot the short film and the movie. One major difference between these two versions is Alexandra Maria Lara's story. She does not appear in this short movie. They kept some of the key actors together, such as Richter, Thomczyk (a personal favorite) and of course Thorwarth, but they had to recast Dieter Krebs' part for example as he died before the feature movie.The story is basically about a gang of construction workers who trick their boss into believing a lethal accident happened and get some money in order not to say anything. I have to say I was not too impressed by the feature movie, but the short film is fine. I believe the material is more suitable for a runtime of 15 minutes and it does not drag here the way it did in the 90-minute movie.
