Our take
My Best Friend, His Girlfriend and Me is a German coming-of-age comedy about two best friends whose bond is tested when one starts dating. Dialogue includes frequent hell and f-word variants, party drinking, tequila-fueled celebrations, and mild romantic tension. Expect adult humor rather than family-friendly fare
Uplifting themes
Friendship loyalty and working through jealousy are underlying themes Friends eventually confront hurt feelings, though behavior is often immature
Story (may spoil tone)
Olli and Matze are best friends living, working and planning to travel the world together β until Matze's romance with Rebecca turns it all upside down.
