During a recent trip to Argentina, my husband and I decided to spend a few days in Mendoza, then take a couple of day trips to the Pampas and to Uruguay, all doable
side trips beyond the border of Buenos Aires.
So a League Cup visit to Elland Road followed by a Johnstone's Paint clash with their local rivals from
beyond Faringdon way will provide tough tests either
side of a
trip to newly promoted York in the League.
Based on the setting alone, the film
trips over every obvious German stereotype in the book - from the uninhibited cultural attitudes, to the kinky sexual indulgences, to the peculiar artistic tastes, smaller automobiles, penchant for beer and Euro - trashy nightclubs, etc., etc., etc....
Beyond that, the lineup of comedic gags and sequences feels like mishmash of ideas that never seem to balance out tonally with other jokes, not the entire dramatic
side of the film.
