Whatta cool subject ...so horribly performed!


I always wanted to see this as a teenager. It took 15 yrs. to actually see it. Yesterday on TV.

SHOULD have been a great plot. From a girl's point of view. Unlike each damn movie where the common ugly male gets his hero shine and his trophy is always automatically the pretty female in the end. *puuke*

I was so disappointed. This movie turned out to be nothing but trash. I have nothing against gays. But maybe this shouldn't have played in a gay environment at all. I missed the first 15 minutes and couldn't get into the (a real) storyline anymore. Besides nothing made sense. The main actors were and looked cheap. (Besides some few supporting High-Profile German actors which couldn't shine neither!)
No clever dialogues. No fitting scenary. No plot development. Horrible special effects. 5 yrs. AFTER Terminator 2 technology! A major blah from start til end.
Now it's a total opposite of what should have been intended. Males after seeing this will use even less condoms. We all know how men are. *rolling eyes*


This movie could have been what non-brainwashed girls' dreams are made off, who make their own career and money and don't need to be a man's housemaid and sex-slave.
Instead of being a superb anti-mainstream film outside all clichees for once, it makes a mockery out of with it's trashy cheap performance overall. A girl couldn't be more disappointed!
Rating: 1/10

Not sure if serious, but...
You're basing your opinion of the film entirely off your own misguided expectations. You're looking at it for what it isn't rather than what it actually is. It's one thing to have ideas over how a plot could be done differently, but not when you expect it to be a *radically different* idea you imagined from reading the title of the film alone. 'Killer Condom' was based off a gay comic book by a gay underground artist...it's kind of absurd to say that it should have been some feminist statement "from a girl's point of view". That's nowhere near what the movie or comic was going for, so why judge it by that standard?

I mean, that would be like me complaining about, I dunno, 'The Dark Knight Rises', saying that it "could have been" a realistic drama about urban crime through the perspective of the Gotham Police rather than about some guy who dresses like a bat.

Also, even if you didn't like the film on its own merits, that's fine, but it's just unfair to compare the special effects of a low-budget German independent film to a billion dollar Hollywood picture like 'Terminator 2'.
