underwhelming

Do you know Colin Furze? He builds stuff, and he's really good at it. Now Fynn Kliemann is the German Colin Furze, kind of, but he's simply not that good. The fun you have watching his youtube videos is mostly due to the fact that he curses and fails until he sort-of kind-of succeeds.

Here, we don't even get to see that. Instead, we see Olli Schulz and Fynn Kliemann hire an army of craftsmen and Max. Max knows what he is doing and pours his soul into this project. In the end, everything works out and looks professional since it was done by professionals. Everybody's happy and proud - even though I don't know what Olli and Fynn are proud of.

Money (and the lack thereof) is a frequent topic. But it is never mentioned where the money comes from. The business model seems questionable - if it wasn't for the Netflix money they might have received for this.

So, if you want a houseboat, sell the idea to Netflix and then buy something that's rotten to the core. Then make a movie about how you shouldn't have bought it in the first place.

It's a bit like The Money Pit, except that movie was fun.

score 5/10
