Rating:  - Maybe . . Maybe Not (American title)
There is only one reason to watch this film: sexy Til Schweiger. He has beauty and magnetism, besides being an extraordinary young actor with subtlety, power, and depth. Unfortunately, these qualities are all but lost in this heavy-handed comedy. It is beautifully shot but, considering its comedic intent, rather darkly. The story and its underlying principles leave much to be desired.
Handsome Axel (Schweiger) works in a 30's-style supper club, presumably to remind us of the wacky ... Read More
Rating:  - Get this out on DVD now!
I can't begin to fathom how the previous reviewer found this movie "dark and tense" - hello? It's a hoot! I cried laughing watching this film!
Also, she found it nice that the movie didn't pursue clichés about gays - well it's not a film about gays, now is it? Not exactly - I know and love the comics it's adapted from, and yes, their author is gay, but that's not quite what this is about. The main character is het Axel, and another review put it well by definig what's happening as "fish ... Read More
Rating:  - Interesting yet comic look at relationships of all kinds
`Maybe, Maybe Not' is one of the most odd movies I've ever seen. I liked it. I think I liked it because it is so completely different than all the American movies I'm used to seeing.

A woman in the next stall recognizes the key chain that dropped from one of the fornicating couple's clothes. She peeks over the stall to find her boyfriend of three years mindlessly humping another woman. ... Read More

Every once in a while, I run a little at-home German film festival for my own amusement and edification. Sometimes the selections are oddly complimentary. After viewing the somewhat somber ROSA LUXEMBURG, I needed a little uplift, and this charming comedy was just what the Arzt bestellte, uh, the doctor ordered. Who says Germans are sullen and humorless? I laughed out loud at this one more frequently than I do with most American comedies. (Or is that not saying very much?)
This fish-out-of-water ... Read More
Rating: - Worth it for the music alone
I've had occasion to see a number of good German films in the past year, and this is one of the best. It's the story of a straight photographer (Til Schweiger) who is initiated into the Cologne gay scene after he is tossed out of his apartment by his girlfriend, who discovers him cheating on her at the restaurant where they both work. Our hero ends up sharing a flat with a gay man, who then plots to seduce him. There are a lot of hokey plot contrivances to keep this one afloat, but they only serve to underscore ... Read More
