Fantastic!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
The acting in this movie is really good.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Almost all the people give this movie a 1/10 because it is horrible. But EVERYONE knows it is horrible. No one wants to watch this movie. But you have those few people that want to give the movie a 10/10 because they like this Daniel guy. Those people even admit the movie sucks, but since Daniel is such a nice guy then this movie deserves a 10/10?? Nonsense. You are supposed to rate the movie, not the person. If the movie sucks (which it does), then you give it a low rating, and you find an Internet Person Database and give Daniel a good rating on that website. But on this website, which is in regards to MOVIES, if the movie sucks then you give the movie a low rating. Its a pretty simple concept.So why are there also a number of people who leave a long review about how much this movie sucks, but then they give the movie a 10/10?? Do they not understand how IMDb works? Smh.
Let me tell you a little story: having once worked in a video store, my boss had ordered 15 copies of Daniel der Zauberer" – two for rentals, 13 to be put into sale. He assured me that this was a wise choice since, at the time, the name Daniel Küblböck was in mouth and ears of many pre-teens and teenagers. Küblböck made second place in Germany's "Superstar"-version ("DSDS") and was groomed to become Germany's version of Michael Jackson; music and persona being as artificial as the tip of Jackos nose. Surely a few handsome bucks would come from the rentals.Need I still mention it? Neither rental copy ever left the store. Not once. After having reduced the price to 50 cents, my boss tried to give the DVDs away for free, causing two copies to leave the store. One customer who took a copy assured me that this was meant as Christmas present for 'that guy dating his ex-girlfriend'; the other copy was taken by a drunk who wandered the adult section and who didn't own a DVD-player.Whatever happened to the remaining 13 copies, you ask? Unless my boss has used them as make-shift beverage coasters, they remain the only films in that shop to carry the label "Free".Is "Daniel der Zauberer" the fabled 'worst movie ever'? Well, sure "Daniel der Zauberer" makes "Plan 9 From Outer Space" look like a Cecil B DeMille picture – but it's by far not the worst film ever. Oh, by no means. Just check out any other Ulli Lommels production, for example "The Zodiac Killer", "Black Daliah", "BTK Killer" or "Green River Killer". They're all god-awful; all bad enough to turn your best friend into your worst enemy.You might wonder why I bother to write a review about such manure: well, it's fun to make fun of movies that are worst than anything you've every recorded with your cell phone.And now you asked me how many points I give and to pass judgement over this film – to paraphrase the "Black Adder": good sirs and madams, I wouldn't pass water over "Daniel der Zauberer".
This movie won me a bet with a friend of mine. I said she could not watch this without crying, yelling or leaving the room.. well she cried, she yelled and she tried to left the room, but it was locked by that time.Do not watch this movie .. this isn't a game, this isn't negative psychology to make you interested and there is no message intended apart from "Do not watch this movie". Since the whole "plot" evolves around people hating the main actor, and you will hate the actor while watching this work, you get the distinct impression that the movie is actually aimed at you. Should that be the case, it's the cultural equivalent of stoning the viewer to death.
OMG!!!!! THIS GUY SERIOUSLY GIVES THIS CRAP 7/10?!?!? Yeah, but let me justify that.My guess is that 90% of the movie's viewers deeply hate the person Daniel Küblböck. So i think most of the votes and reviews are written out of a perspective of hate, disgust and certified prejudice.Let me write a review from a perspective of a person that just doesn't care about the person of Daniel Küblböck: 1. This movie isn't done by aestheticians of modern cinema, let's mention Tarsem Singh or Pedro Almodóvar for an example. So expect a very cheap looking film.2. Don't expect professional actors. Most lay actors here simply play themselves or very plain characters.3. This movie has a simple message. See it as a movie for children, maybe aged 10 or something. Those viewers do not have the same expectations as you might have as an adult. I think the message of the movie is a good message: "Do not hate. Love instead!" and so on. If you have a look at the enormous crap that is being watched by children today this seems like a good message.4. This movie directly addresses to the majority of people who hate the person of Daniel Küblböck. Well, the message for haters would be the same like it would be for children. "Hate makes you blind for what your life should be worth living for" Why can't you leave something alone if you hate it? Without the enormous negative media circus Daniel Küblböck would have been forgotten in weeks like all the other casting singers.So let me summarize. There are movies that transport their message in a artistically more valuable way, but nevertheless the message of the movie is good. Most haters are blinded by their hate and won't be able to change their narrow-minded point of view.Now please insult me for giving this movie more than 1/10
