4/10
Not a must-see by any means

Warning: Spoilers
The 1960s are known in terms of German films for example for the "Lümmel" films, but there is more beyond these. "Immer Ärger mit den Paukern" came out in 1968, so this one will soon have its 50th anniversary and it unites Roy Black and Uschi Glas, two of the biggest younger German film stars back then. But I just can't see any great range in them. Black died in the early 1990, but Glas is still alive and acting today in FJG, a bit of a modern version of the old Pauker films. The people who made this were Vock, Furch and Rieger and I must say I am not familiar with any of them. The stars really are the actors here. But sadly, they do not have a whole lot to work with, which makes this film just another of all the mediocre romance comedy films with music that were made in Germany around that time. There were very few funny moments unfortunately only and I am also not the greatest fan of Roy Black's singing which made it an even more forgettable watch. Luckily, the film runs for 75 minutes only, so it did not drag that much really. But it was just too generic in all areas to let me recommend it. Thumbs down and you should watch something else instead.
