Reviews

“This film is really bad. Little action and few good ideas lead to a lot of boredom. The film has a few interesting actors to offer, nothing else. "

“The main trick is the reversal of roles between couples, which is staged with hair-raising stupidity and played through at the most primitive level of fluctuation. The locals and their cult dances are shamelessly abused as an attraction backdrop. The third-tier cast is appropriate for the film. "

- Lexicon of international film

“ Dirndl hunting on Kilimanjaro is mainly characterized by the inevitable overacting of the protagonists involved, who may have been permanently drugged and must have had a lot of fun during the turbulent filming. The question of any meaningfulness should be put aside during the opening credits and left to a horrified posterity. "

In August 2019, the film was shown as part of the Tele 5 series The Worst Films of All Time .
