Bump – dismantled the world movie review

A problem of many film comedies are the leasing pace and a associated voltage drop in the course of the film. Even various classics of the genre have this dent in the last third, where the punch line suddenly is no longer as high. This is similar to popcorn, which at the end is rarely popping because the corn welds are almost used up. Only in the comedy it is the gags that are already ignited (or falves), which is why there is hardly anything left for the end.

Then a look at the cell phone begins in the audience, how long the film may take. So far, only a few film comedies have succeeded in not leaving the cinema fans when accessing the dwarf dwelling. “The Marx Brothers in War”, Blake Edwards' “The Party Schach” and “Some like it hot” by Billy Wilder are part of this rare species. But now there is growth, with Janek Rieke's “Bump – dismantled the world“. Because” bump “has no dent.

Probably the shortest ignition cord in the world

If there is a happy couple in this world, it is Olli (Janek Rieke) and Anja (Julia Hartmann). This is what Olli finds her numerous friends, and Anja is almost satisfied with her happy relationship … but almost just, because Anja wants a child and wants to start a real family. Not least because Olli drives to sea and she is often alone for months. Your partner is not quite as convinced of this plan. In general, he distrusts changes – and above all, he distrusts himself, because his nickname “bump” is no coincidence: Olli is quite at war with his impulse control and has a very, very short cord. As soon as he is annoyed by something or anyone on his months of sea voyages, his buddies have to block him in the closet for a few days to prevent major damage to the ship and crew.

In the long run, however, Olli has not grown Anja's persuasion, and so soon the first offspring will be on the road. The pregnancy is amazing Anja: Now it is Anja's impulse control that gets cracks, and the otherwise kind, always friendly Anja mutates in a matter of seconds to the screaming monster. But because Olli is equipped with a healthy survival instinct, he also drives to the tank at midnight to get Anja Himbeereis. The petrol station seller Mia (Nilam FarooQ) should also have a share. Of all things, when the contractions use the contractions, Mia, Olli and Anja meet for the first time while driving to the hospital – and when Mia also makes their sole representation at Olli, the very big chaos finally breaks out …

After a long back and forth, Olli (Janek Rieke) and Anja (Julia Hartmann) still choose to get a child.

There are films that meet completely unexpectedly, like one of Ollis coarse but precisely executed club blows. “Bule” is such a film that apparently comes out of nowhere with throat, force and a lot of verve throws a virtuoso composed farce on the screen. Janek Rieke, known as an actor primarily from a number of TV productions, also wrote the script-as a blueprint for a perfectly oiled comedy machine, which he screwed together with himself in the leading role and a group of congenially acting comedy professionals.

Anyone who has dealt a little with the comedy genre knows what importance the timing is when you want to make people laugh. Janek Rieke turns out to be the grand master of comedic timing, not only as an actor, but especially as a director. Rarely has there been a German film in recent years, in which the points are set so precisely in which the actors seem to find a common rhythm, remain with themselves and their roles and yet play for the audience at any time. Rieke himself and Julia Hartmann stand out from the homogeneous comedy ensemble as Anja. The range that Julia Hartmann delivers in this role is simply breathtaking. From totally cute to diabolically she has everything on it and also manages to cheer the audience at one or the other between the audience: This is a big, strange cinema, Chapeau!

The direct way to the comedy

As the main actor, Janek Rieke himself knows exactly what he is doing every second and adapts his means of every scene: from the full body insert to the discrete, horrified large-eyes-he uses every opportunity to make a strange effect, without ever revealing his own figure for a laugh. “Bump” is certainly not for fine spirits or a delicacy, but a bright, shrill farce, in which the fists often fly and-as part of the modest independent budget-also properly caused property damage.

You are looking for psychological finesse in vain, because as is well known, it is known to stereotypes that indicate the direct path to the comedy. “Bule – disassembled the world” is only the second feature film by Janek Rieke, who in 1998 gave his much -observed comedy debut, but then had the director's chair dusted in order to succeed as a busy TV actor. One can only be grateful that he has interrupted this director's abbatical to turn “bump”. And you may hope that the next Janek-Rieke comedy will not be long in coming again.

Conclusion: “Bule – disassembled the world” is a perfect film comedy, incidentally, without public funding. Over 79 entertaining minutes of film, an extremely disciplined, well -laid and playful ensemble in perfect timing completes a course of absurd situations that are as weird as funny, but always somehow lovable. A good dose of silly is still there. The only thing that could be accused of this comedic Tour de Force is that the ambition behind it is limited to making the audience laugh. However, since this succeeds masterfully, there is a hymn and deserved 4.5 stars.
