It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Sammy-Jo Cervantes
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

"Dei Mudder sei Gesicht" (roughly translated "your mother's face") is a German movie from 1997, so this one has its 20th anniversary next year. The duo who wrote this, directed it and also acts in it is Simon Mora and Hardy Strohn. It was the first film for both and stayed the only film for Strohn, while Mora kept making more movies about his trademark character Kermet Dünger. The quality of this 90-minute film however is pretty much what you would expect from the title. It is amateurish trash and it becomes painfully obvious how everybody involved with this project lacks talent in writing, camera work, acting and filmmaking in general. It does look extremely amateurish and you know immediately that nobody working on this one was really experienced in film.Some people (also if you look at the rating) like it because it adds some charm that the ones who made this were still fresh and daring in their work, but I cannot share this opinion. There was hardly any scene that I found only mildly funny and the humor is even way below Mario Barth level. The main actor playing an older lady in a costume is a joke that only works for one or two scenes and it becomes embarrassing quickly afterward. The only thing positive you can say is probably that the people who made this never wanted it to becomes as famous as it did. So the ones who are to blame are the fans who shared this complete garbage movie. I recommend you to stay far far away and I have zero interest to see Mora's follow-up projects. At least, Strohn learned something from it. Watch something else instead.

I like dark humor and non-PC stuff, but not if it is with no purpose but to elevate yourself. Bashing a group of people without any trace of self-irony is crap.There are people who could make concentration camp jokes funny, but whoever made this film unfortunately failed even in the VERY easy task of making fun about Turks in Germany. It is a very easy task, but if your are the Germany equivalent of an inbred redneck (=inbred Southerner from a village where virginity is often lost to farm animals) you certainly will fail at this and also at life. I have heard and seen so many funny stuff about minorities in Germany, but this "movie" (this piece of crap being listed here is an insult to the next worst movie) sucks like the calf the makers of this movie met some years ago.

Cult! Cult! Cult! Everybody heard about this film, a lot of people saw it, and I think this film was and still is an influence for a whole generation, especially in German spoken countries! In fact, it is a trash movie with nearly no budget, with horribly bad effects and only filmed with a video cam. But that reeeeally doesn't matter. It's the weird dialogues, this sort of taken-from-real-life-humour, the cool soundtrack who make the film a real masterpiece! A real masterpiece! I could spontaneously mention so many scenes from this film which are so over the top funny, it's unbelievable! As I already said it influenced so many people I know in the way they are talking to each other, amazing.. I don't know any other film which had or has this effect to so many people.Really, it's a great honour for the film crew to be mentioned at the IMDb! Nobody did ever think about that! Respect folks! One of the best comedies ever! Clearly 10 out of 10! Sürk!!!

Beware!!! "Boah fett - Dei Mudder sei Gesicht Part 2" is out now and everybody who liked the predecessor will love the sequel!!!!!!! But let´s start from the beginning: "Dei Mudder... " is made by five guys who know each other from school. One day they decided to make their own movie - just for fun and for themselves. Then it continued with 4 or 5 copies I think, and a few months later it became the biggest hype in the German movie underground. Everybody between 15 and 27 knows this film or has heard of it. Youths find it hip to talk with the slang of the characters, and their are also a lot of persons, who know the dialogues from inside out. "Dei Mudder..." got some bad critics, because it´s often said, that it is hostile to foreigners. But when you watch this film you recognize exactly that this movie is only a satire and a parody. I personally think it´s the ideal party movie - invite some friends, drink some beer and you will laugh so hard, I promise!!! Although this film has got nearly no plot, the special FX are home made and all is filmed with a handy cam. But "Dei Mudder..." takes his charm from the fact, that everything looks so cheap and stupid. I know a lot of people who hate this film and say this shot could be done by everyone. Well, they are probably right, but the fact, that a "primitive" work like this one reached such an immense success is nearly a phenomenon. And it´s one of the greatest honors for director/script writer/actor Simon Mora and his guys to be in the archives of IMDb!!! My rating: Beyond heaven and hell... (Cult factor: 101 %).
