Seemed like an interesting concept and with a running time of 66 minutes what could go wrong? Lots.
It's about a television show called "Have a Life". We are not told what the premise of the show is, we just get a quick introduction to the four contestants. Then we are thrown right into a scenario, their car broke down in the middle of nowhere while Toni, a random guy, showed up. He then takes one of the contestants hostage and tries to force the others to give up the game. Is he a real threat? Or is he just part of the show?
To be fair, this is a low-budget independent movie from 2005 from Germany. So you can already expect to be underwhelmed. And while the idea was interesting enough, the execution was done poorly.
The weakest actor of the group, Tony, has to do the most acting, which is bad because when the antagonist of the movie is not believable, everything falls down. The others are okay, what you'd expect from a no-budget production.
I didn't like this that much and actually thought about turning it off halfway through, but I'm not that kind of guy, I wanna see the movie to the end. I'm rating it 1.5 out of 5 stars, it feels like they had fun and good ideas, it was just not done very well.
