German "humour" at its worst: Bad acting, lame fabricated plot, no identifiable character arc, stunted dialogues, zero suspense or unpredictability, and not funny at all.
Siegfried is an annoying bumbling fool, the "bad guys" a bunch of clowns (in a forced, unfunny way). And for reasons nobody understands, a bad version of a talking "piglet babe" is Siegfried's constanr sidekick with long and prominent parts in the film, adding nothing to the story but irritation.
The jokes are terrible and not funny at all, with actors laughing about themselves, while the audience sits silently staring at the screen in a state of lugubrius dread.
The whole thing is so annoying that you kind of hope and beg for Siegfried (and the random pig) to please get killed!
This film has really nothing going for it, and is a shameful offence to a great German myth.
