It's never funny, let alone laugh out loud funny. One or two were mildly funny perhaps, the rest is trash and that the film runs for a massive 110 minutes (plus another 10 minutes of credits) is not helping matters at all. The film does not feel fluent at all, but it relies on individual scenes. Oh well, the comedy is at the film's very core. Sucks to see somebody go from being a Fassbinder regular to Fack Ju Göhte. Good actors and actresses like Maertens, Harfouch, van Acken and Hermann are wasted with minimal screen time.
Katja Riemann is back as well sharing some screen time with Sandra Hüller who somewhat fills in for Herfurth and I think she is a pretty talented actress, not only in Toni Erdmann, but yeah she is terrible here, which is probably more becazuse of the way the character was written than to her performance. Jella Haase is back of course as Chantal and maybe she is the central female character this time. Still they got a decent cast together as there would be no doubt that this is gonne be another commercial success, which sadly says nothing positive at all about German theater audiences. So the winner you could say is Karoline Herfurth who decided not to return to play the protagonist's love interest. Now what can be said about this one? I think the original film, a huge commercial success, was tolerable, the second was pretty weak and this one here is just plain horrible. The man behind this is Bora Dagtekin and his lead is Elyas M'Barek and these two have worked together on projects begore FJG already.
It was clear before that already that this would be the last film and that it would end as a trilogy. "Fack ju Göhte 3" or "Suck Me Shakespeer 3" is a German film from 2017, still relatively new, and as the title gives away the third installment of its franchise.
