THE RASPBERRY REICH (2004) - ♦♦

Directed by - Bruce la Bruce

Written by - Bruce la Bruce

Starring - Susanne Sachsse, Daniel Batscher, Andreas Rupprecht

"A group of chic anarchist terrorists kidnap the son of a wealthy mogul. It feels more like a fashion statement than a serious political satire. It also feels a lot more like pornography than actual filmmaking, not only because of the too many lengthy sex scenes but also because it shares a lot of many of the flaws of that genre. Still, this over stylised and over indulgent mess actually shows serious potential as an underground masterpiece before LaBruce's eccentricities become tedious and the charge of the film wanes as it progresses."
