Very poorly acted. Especially the main character who is not credible for a moment, not even as a person, let alone as mayor. But basically everything anyway, this felt like a created world in which some characters live and they are all in the film. It all starts with a mayor arriving and not being able to find the village. That's where it ends for me, even as a comedy it's annoying. And that continues throughout the film, regardless of reality. The film may occasionally do something nice visually, but I really couldn't do anything with it at all. I watched this thing from the couch, bored, but not with full attention. 0.5*.

It must be my different taste when I read all the reviews. I watched this unique film with great pleasure. More!

Although he has no social skills at all, the self-righteous Gerben Kooistra [Tibor Lukács] is appointed interim mayor of a small Brabant (?) municipality whose mayor died in a car accident. An attack on the house of campsite owner Frank de Goeije [Patrick Stoof] causes him to immediately become involved in shady dealings, in which Toontje van Wanrooij [Bart Slegers] is an important role. Since it didn't want to be either funny or exciting, it wasn't clear to me what Janga had in mind. The label 'crime thriller' comes from external sources, but it seems more likely that the makers discovered at a late moment that this was such a failed thriller that they tried to save the day by turning it into a comedy. Maybe you can chuckle at those red underpants from Slegers, but other than that there is certainly nothing to enjoy here. And the accents... don't break the mouth of someone who has lived in North Brabant for more than 35 years.
