5.0 out of 5 stars
German movie, October 21, 2007
It's, perhaps, one of the most meaningful movies I've see lately.
It addresses idealism and what happens to those who continue to hold on to their ideals.
It's also about friendship and loyalty. Excellent acting, good plot that never sags or slows.

Great Anarchy Flick, May 27, 2006
If you're up for a movie that rages against the government and the police, you will most definetly enjoy this movie. And, what better language to do it in than German? This movie was kick-ass.
"What to do in case of fire? Let it burn!" (Well of course!)
In any case, the acting is excellant, NO crappy C-grade acting (you won't die from bad acting skill in this movie). Til Schweiger is the most Bad-Ass, Smart, Superb Actor; Awesome expressions.
Quick Cap Summary:
A bunch of rebel anarchists (in about there 20's) make a bomb and leave it in some abandoned house. 10 years later the rebel's are all living separate lives, (except for Tim and Hotte, still carrying their anarchist ways, living in a broken down house, refusing to leave) Two of the rebel's are well off with money (great jobs, or source of money) One of the rebels is raising two children on her own, and another is a paranoid freak who doesn't want to break any laws. When a lady is selling the house the rebels left the bomb in (no one has ever been in it for 10 years) she opens the house up to show her client around, BOOM! Off goes the bomb. Police raid Tim and Hotte house, take there film rolls and other belongings. The films contain all their rebel acts, even making the bomb, which would give the police the evidence they need to bust them (the police don't know this yet). Tim ends up grouping everyone back up and trying to get their stuff back from the police (either that, or blow-up the evidence). The mission is to not get busted and charged for attempted murder and so on.
Just watch it, it is most entertaining, there a good laughs, and good cries. Definetly worth the show!!

Thrilling Taste of German Culture, December 28, 2002
By A Customer
I thought this movie was great, contrary to the other review. I thought the plot was well planned out and as for missing links, I thought the exact opposite. I think they connected everyone's lives from the past to the present perfectly. The scene with the test run and the music played was fantastic.
