Where to Watch Video Kings (2007) in the UK

What it's about

This movie is your average german comedy and it does everything wrong that german comedies and movies in general get wrong. The humor is silly and depends for a big part on the actors looking funny and behaving in stereotypical ways. The lines are horribly written and the way the protagonists talk and act doesn't resemble how people actually talk. There is no depth to the humor, it's stale, flat and at times plainly dumb. The lighting has the typical telenovela look of german movies - oversaturated, undynamic, lackluster and it's never used as an artistic tool. This movie tries too hard to be something along the lines of Bang Boom Bang, a good example of a really funny and well executed german comedy, but fails miserably because it's just too tame and does nothing new. Some of the actors are well known and have been seen in better movies, but the acting in this movie looks downright amateurish at times. Something I blame on lack of direction and probably some really bad decisions in the cutting room. Also the lines are written in a way that barely make sense in a real conversation and would be hard to deliver for any actor. The characters are so bland you just don't care about them. I found it hard to watch it to the end and can't recommend it to anyone.
