Fack ju Göhte 2

In short – not a disappointment. Sequels tend to bring with them that tinge of disappointment, but that didn’t happen in this case. It’s great from beginning to end. One of the best German comedies ever made. (15.12.2015)

Zeki ist nicht nur sympathisch, sondern vor allem ein Kerl, denn eine solche Gruppe von Vollpfosten zu bewältigen, ist eine Kunst, die nur Buddhas mit zwei D beherrschen. Es ist zwar wahr, dass er nicht mehr die Eier wie damals hat, und außerdem ist dieses soziale Herz wieder etwas verstärkt worden, aber zum Glück ist dieser vulgäre/vaginale Humor geblieben und es ist gerade dieser grobere Spaß, der sich ziemlich zuverlässig um Ihre Bauchmuskeln kümmert. Der Film läuft von Anfang bis Ende, hat keine deutlichen Lücken, die thailändische Exotik lockt mit ihren Stränden und insgesamt ist es wieder erkennbar, dass alle beim Drehen eine Menge Spaß hatten. Und das ist schön, denn man schaltet komplett ab und vergisst für die zwei Stunden alle Lebenssorgen. Also Mission erfüllt und in zwei Jahren fakju für die Drei. (03.11.2015)

The sequel to this incredibly raunchy and at times quite disgusting comedy is surprisingly even better than the first. I attribute it mostly to the fact that Karoline Herfurth, who I didn't enjoy in the first one, didn't get as much space here. I could have done without her character. Thailand is perfect for all possible and impossible shenanigans and the Germans have done it their way. Okay, some of the scenes were way past the point of bullying, but I still laughed more than I have in the last month combined. And even though I really hate excessive profanity in movies, I just kind of love it here. 4.5 stars. (12.11.2015)

A holiday in an exotic location for the actors from part one... I’m not exactly sure what the moral of this is meant to say. On the one hand, this is about war on poor kids growing grass and on the other about saving diamonds stolen by kids. Even so, it’s much more entertaining than most of the Czech movies released recently. (08.09.2018)

The first Suck Me Shakespeer was literally like a flash in the pan as far as German comedies are concerned, as it was a brisk, light-hearted and funny piece of entertainment without any frills and with a likeable cast and a sharp script. The same could be applied to the second part, which is basically a paraphrase of the first in its form, atmosphere, jokes and character behaviour, but it still worked, at least for me. Zeki and his group of kids again experience a lot of funny and awkward situations, this time in a slightly more exotic setting, and again there are some lessons learned and a twist, with a decent soundtrack playing again to top it all off. I was satisfied and the allusions to Lord of the Rings were really funny. In short, another great comic ride that I will happily watch again in the future. (09.02.2016)

I simply like these movies. Not only do the creators strive to make it funny from the beginning - and it is funny - but they also give it a story that makes sense and is quite original. However, it mainly relies on the characters, which are simply excellent, and I would gladly return to them again. Karoline Herfurth simply enchanted me, so hopefully next time there will be more.
