Dies und das:

The film is based on a 18-part radio play that Oliver Kalkofe together with Oliver Welke did in the 1990s during his time as a radio moderator.

Pannen:

Filmfehler: When the box in the harbor opens and the girl-group "No Angels" runs out of the box screaming, one member can still be seen in the right-hand corner of the screen.

Dialogzitate:

Earl of Cockwood: [Imitating jury member 'Bohlen, Dieter' of 'Deutschland sucht den Superstar', Germany's version of Pop Idol] First, let me tell what I liked - nothing. And now what I didn't like - the rest of it. We'll be in touch.
[shoots the singer, causing his other female captives to panic]
Earl of Cockwood: Ladies, ladies, calm down, this is only an audition!

Very enjoyable.

I thought I wouldn't like this , but it was surprisingly funny throughout and quite an original idea.The English names were particularly hilarious, as well as the somewhat familiar looking Butler.Obviously you won't know who all the actors unless you live in Germany,but that's not really vital information. You forget very easily that it's a foreign film as you get quite drawn into it. All in all it's one of the better spoofs that are out there now, compared to the Scary Movie trilogy whose writers seem to have run out of good ideas.It is well produced,with lighthearted humour and it makes a refreshing change from the usual Hollywood rubbish and I'm even thinking of getting it on DVD...
