This movie, directed by the incomparable Walter Boos (just try and compare him to someone), is called "Der Ostefriesen-Report" because it is about two nightclub managers and their wives trying to recruit strippers for their Munich strip club in the East Friesen (Ostefresisen) region of Germany. But of course this means absolutely nothing to people like me who have spent little or no time in Germany. Naturally, the comedy here is pretty provincial, but that also makes it kind of exotic, and I generally prefer sex comedies that are 1. exotic, 2.nostalgic, or 3. somehow both at the same time.
My main gripe with this movie though is that it is not really a "report" film. The German "sex-report" movies are usually a kind of portmanteau series of sexy stories that often tend to swing wildly in tone between very silly, overly melodramatic, or even downright disturbing. This movie, however, is a single narrative that is never anything but very silly, which unfortunately renders it pretty boring after awhile.
There is certainly no shortage of (softcore) sex in this movie, but the women are not up to the usual standard in terms of attractiveness. Other Walter Boos movies I've seen are more portmanteau-style with radical shifts in tone (so they're much more entertaining), and/or feature unusually attractive actresses like Christina Lindberg or Ingrid Steeger (so they're much more sexy). Then there's Boo's "Magdalena-Possessed by Satan" where the main female character is, uh, possessed by Satan. This movie, however, is not very entertaining, not particularly sexy, nor does it even have the dubious trash appeal of a cheap European "Exorcist" rip-off like "Magdalena".
