Bang Boom Bang - Ein todsicheres Ding (1999)
Very high complexity of storyboard and thrill, but without loosing its humour !
At first, i'd like to admit, that i could also have written "Simply the best film, ive ever watched". But i am not that good in writing down things that emotional i feel them. Instead of, it might read very neutral and cold.
But this film is simply the best film i've ever watched.
I have watched bang boom bang multiple times, while i always watch movies only once, due to my lack of time and my higher interest in watching something new instead of something i know, how it ends.
Bang boom Bang is this one film breaking that rule. I dont know, when i watched it first. But i know, that i felt like missing some important things and i didnt finally understood the last scene. Nevertheless, i already loved it. Due to my lacks of understanding, i watched that film twice. That time i just understood the ending and some things became more clear to me, while still missing something. But only yesterday, watching it for the thrid time, i just recognized, that there are very short scenes just inbetween, which literally explain everything, but cant be understand watching for the first time. There are lots of lines in that story, which all point to their own character and which doesnt seem to belong together at first. But all of them have their own meaning. And it is gorgeous, how nothing more than every person, every act, and every detail has an important meaning for the main plot.
For me the twist is, how it first seems the film is just comedy telling the everyday life of its characters, with some funny additions, but in the end it turns out to be a highly sophisticated thriller !
Bang boom bang never was ment to get that big.
It was Peter Thorwarth's first film directly after graduating, while he only made 2-3 shorts while studying. The film only consists of B-Stars, some well known, but also not well known ones, a soundtrack of the Band H-BLOCKX, which were also not that big that time and the Cities Unna and Dortmund (And Unna is just that city, where you cant get home by bus after 11 p.m.).
And therefore it made history !
It just prooved out, that you dont need a marvell studio, much money or known actors for a great film. In cases like these, the opposite it is: Bang boom bang consists of a superb camera angle, a great script, a sophisticated story and an atmosphere just making it look like a real life footage. Everything lines up perfectly and every detail has its meaning.
Just do yourself the favour and watch it !
I dont understand that two bad reviews. They just didnt get the point.
