Reception

Schweighoefer applies to critics - also because of his experience in theater - as an actor who has mastered his craft. Especially with respect to his earlier films him a tremendous convertibility is awarded. Since its cooperation with Til Schweiger but take some criticism that its potential Schweighoefer see in the albeit commercially very successful, but less demanding comedies Schweiger do not cover the full extent. Even with his own films What a Man and final Bookmakers remains Schweighoefer the shallow comedy faithful.
