Often compared, with quite good reason, to 'American Pie', this sexed-up German teenage comedy is quite predictable and pretty clichéd, however the characters are quite good, even if they are generally archetypal, and therefore it is interesting to follow their experiences. The film is accompanied by a soundtrack that fits the picture quite well, and in the second half there are some particularly amusing scenes. As a coming-of-age tale and as a sexual comedy, the film has nothing new to offer, but either way it is not bad entertainment, and it is better than most of teen-aimed trash that Hollywood is producing.

This movie was good for a bit of mindless TV. I laughed out loud quite a few times. It's true that the story didn't seem to go anywhere much, which was a pity as we were really left wanting more.

I was struck by this movie's similarity to an American movie called Coming Soon (99) and was surprised they aren't really related (as far as I can tell). Coming Soon definitely has a better plot and production. Both are very entertaining.

i didn't like this one.

the makers of this film couldn't make a decision if they wanted to make a light funny thing, or better a well perceved film about teenagers, girls, sex and love. they couldn't decide if realism or stange mixing of unreal scenes suites the film better. there are some scenes where you might laugh, but the jokes are bought very cheap and lack, well, everything. the whole thing isn't funny. but it isn't touching also. it's nothing.

everything here we have seen, and we have seen it better. remember "crazy"? so do yourself a favor and don't watch this one.

Inken (Diana Amft) is an eighteen years old girl, frustrated for not having had an orgasm yet with her boy-friend. Her two best friends are Vicky (Felicitas Woll), who is in the same situation as Inken without knowing the pleasure of an orgasm, and the still virgin Lena (Karoline Herfurth). Inken and Vicky try to find a man or woman able to give pleasure to them while Lena has her heart broken by her boy-friend. "Mádchen, Mádchen" is a silly German comedy in the same structure of "American Pie". But this comedy is also very funny, having magnificent jokes and hilarious situations, and supported by a trio of gorgeous actresses: Karoline Herfurth, Diana Amft and Felicitas Woll are not only beautiful, but also very sexy and a colyrium for the men's eyes. The plot explores the insecurity of teenagers, their loves, rejections and findings. There are many hilarious scenes, such as when Inken has her first orgasm (it recalled me Meg Ryan in a restaurant in "Harry and Sally"); or when Inken's father arrives home and finds her date in a serious trouble. I have really found "Mädchen, Mádchen" a good entertainment. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Garotas Procuram..." ("Girls Look For...")

For some reason subtitle movies communicate better with me then movies in plain English. Madchen Madchen was seriously a crack up, but it was also serious in the sense that it dealt with teenage issues. Its not for everyone but give it a go, even just to give u a bit of a laugh. The characters were fantastic and communicate there roles to the audience well. This movie can also be a bit confusing as it is both serious and funny at the same time, but these two elements kind of complement each other. In my opinion I thought this movie was good, but still like I said not for everyones tastes. It does deal with teen issues to an extent but tends to exaggerates them a tad, issues such as sex, love, friendships, and bike riding are all part of this wacky take on teenage life in general.

Some friends forced to see this film, and to be honest, I wasn't very ambitious about it, but what I saw really shocked me! How can people dare to make such a movie, which has no story, bad actors, an not one funny moment in it! There are so many people out there who have ideas to make good movies, and all you get to see is this piece of s... Even "American Pie" or "Scary Movie" were better than this!

I understand if some (especially men or boys) are not into this or do not think this has a purpose or whatever. If possible you have to keep in mind who the target audience is for the movie. Obviously in this case it is female and it is teenagers. While the actors are above that age (they play or pretend to be), they are doing a really good job.

Movie tried to give a voice to those who were not represented in movies that much. And it did a good job at it. Of course it hit almost every cliche hole on its way, but it is a fair price to pay for an overall still funny movie. And as you'd expect with a European (German) movie, nudity is not frowned upon or seen as something evil - hopefully you won't be bothered by it either (it is sparsely used anyway)

As an avid hater of the German movie scene I was most surprised to see this really hilarious, light comedy about young girls in their raid for the lost orgasm. Director Dennis Gansel, totally unknown til this movie, succeeds in creating likeable characters and a decent plot which of course is all about love, rejection and the unbearable pains of puberty and adolescence, and which is taking place in an environment which could be just next door - a fact that may be the answer to why this movie is so charming in its simpleness. The gags are well-dosed, but are not getting too rude like many American comedies nowadays (Scary Movie comes to mind).

Most noticeable are the young faces Gansel introduces to the big screen: Diana Amft, Karoline Herfurth and Felicitas Woll are totally convincing in their roles and a wonderful diversion from the omnipresent but so unpleasant diva of German film Katja Riemann. Gansels film does not use anyone of the nearly incestous German film avantgarde, and that's what makes this movie so fresh and joyful to watch. A fresh breeze is what German film needs since Soenke Wortmanns stopped doing independent movies - maybe Gansel is here to revitalize German comedy?

So...

let's see wot can I write 'bout this movie?!

First of all: I guess I fell in love with Felicitas Woll (Victoria) and Karoline Herfurth (Lena)!!! That's sure, that's true!

I never seen a comedy like that - I have to admit, this film matches with the quality of the American Pies. 'Mädchen, Mädchen' is the greatest erotic-teenage comedy nowadays.

If I could, I would sooooooo kiss Lena's wonderful lips and Victoria's extraordinary sexy bootie! ;) And of course I would play with Inken's lovely tummy! ;) God, these chicks are sooooooo piercing!!!

I think this film somehow gives us a portrait of this age we are living in. Guys and girlies both want to have multi-orgasms no matter how, no matter where. Both sexes do alot to do their bests for the very first time, but I think they always overrate it: I mean having sex with somebody is not a ritual-animal-sacrifice. And this film touches the spot: the better we wanna have big grooves the more doubtful we will achieve it. I say to all the young-virgin-teenage-dudes: just live your life, have good parties and stuff like that, but don't rush after the "Great Love" just because you need someone. Love and sex will surely find you's - sooner or later. :)
