Die Bluthochzeit (2005)
Disappointing film of great Comic
3 April 2009 - 1 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
The comic book by Greg and Van Hamme, on which this movie is based, is the best I've ever read. Unfortunately this movie doesn't do it justice. The comic is not a black comedy but a serious story, especially the father of the groom and the main waiter in the inn are not funny at all. Also a lot of the subplots that made the comic so interesting are not in the movie. What I especially liked about the comic is the credibility of the characters and though the acting is not bad they never seem to develop. Still it's not a bad movie, but I had expected better a better product with this excellent raw material. I hope that the remake that is current in production stays closer to the original story, it certainly deserves it.
