Wolkenbruchs wunderliche Reise in die Arme einer Schickse (2018)

Bad Writing, Worse Stereotyping

This could have been a good movie, had the director bothered to avoid the oldest and most idiotic stereotypes of Jewish people and especially of Jewish mothers. Speaking as a Jewish mother myself, I pride myself on my caring and my psychological sophistication. The behavior of the mother in this movie, even in a comedy framework, made me cringe. What possible purpose did this overacting serve? Watch Schtisel or Shrugim if you want more satisfying and complex fare...
