"Der Schnüffler" tells the story of a harmless taxi driver who finds himself right in the middle of a political scandal, threatened from all sides and in permanent danger.
I didn't expect much from this title but have to admit that it is actually an enjoyable film. Not to be mistaken, the humor is very slapstick and shrill but at least the plot itself is clever enough to make for an interesting story. The plot is actually not far away from "Burn after reading" but the style is a lot more openly comedic, which is a bit much at times but at least consequently carried out.
All in all not a masterpiece but a fairly decent comedy that has some nice aspects but tends to exaggerate in terms of humor.
