Keinohrhase und Zweiohrküken is a German computer animation film by Til Schweiger from 2013. It is based on a children's book of the same name, written by Til Schweiger and illustrated by Klaus Baumgart from 2009.
action
The no-eared hare is a very common hare - almost. Because he has no ears, which makes him an outsider and therefore very sad. When he finds a small egg, he takes care of it and experiences a surprise when a chick with ears, the two-eared chick, hatches from it. They both quickly become friends. But they have to be careful of the fox trying to catch the chick. The chick soon realizes that it is different from the other chicks. The no-ear bunny helps the chick learn to fly, which it succeeds in the end.
background
On September 26, 2013, Keinohrhase und Zweiohrküken was released as a 3D animation film in German cinemas. Schweiger directed, produced the film and took over the speaking role of the no-ear bunny. His daughter Emma Schweiger speaks the two-eared chick. Other speaking roles were filled with actors who regularly work with Schweiger, such as Matthias Schweighöfer and Fahri Yardım . Father Fuchs is spoken by Hans-Joachim Heist , who is also known as Gernot Hassknecht from the Today show . On the opening weekend, the film reached 42,000 viewers in 589 cinemas.
criticism
After Cinema , Til Schweiger has "now made a colorful animated film about two dissimilar animal friends", whose "funny story, which is told in great 3D and in a target group-specific length", especially the very young viewers can enjoy.
RTL .de, on the other hand, criticizes the “extremely simple story”, which “ unfortunately doesn't look particularly nicely animated even with 3D glasses ”. However, the film is "absolutely right" for the target group of children, the story is "easy to grasp and very sweet", albeit "optically disappointing".
“As true as Til Schweiger remains true to himself on the one hand in this ideal world children's animation film, the upright appearance of the film is surprising. While the interiors of his more recent films always look as if they were taken directly from the hip living magazine [...] the house of the rabbit is an interior design disaster. Even all the color cannot help over the contemplative 50s kitchen and the puffy living room with the carrot wallpaper: the impression of narrow-mindedness is overwhelming. "
“How the film is received by the audience seems to be of secondary importance, after all it has long been one of the winners of the year. In addition to being nominated for the 2013 animation script award, his own film industry awarded him the FBW rating of “valuable”, which, in addition to all sorts of press, also entails various financial remuneration. The losers are in the audience, namely the children and parents who were hoping for an imaginative, funny and passionate film experience, but who instead are presented with this listless and conservative piece of animated film. "
