CGiii Comment

It starts off pretty well – and it ends as if someone decided, without notice, to pull the plug – giving 1 minute to wrap things up.

The overall feeling of being cheated is overwhelming – the story remains unresolved.

It’s a shame because there were some genuinely funny moments...to leave an audience dangling at the end is not only unprofessional - it is criminal.

Please, avoid this film and teach the director a lesson: you cannot take your audience for granted...

It’s as if they all got bored with the project and gave up!

The(ir) Blurb...

Christoph, cop and self-confident macho, has trouble with his fiance. After a long night he wakes up in the arms of Edgar, a good-looking, gay auto-mechanic. His live gets more and more troublesome after his girl friend throws him out of their apartment and as last resort he moves to Edgars place. Working together with a new, good-looking, very self-confident, female collegue, but living with a good-looking gay guy makes him pretty uncertain about his sexuality and his role as a cop.
