The 120 Days of Bottrop is this quirky blend of comedy and homage to the kind of raw, avant-garde energy that Fassbinder brought to German cinema. The film's pacing is almost erratic at times, mirroring the chaotic vibe of the late '90s. It’s packed with oddball characters who seem to embody a mishmash of different tropes from that period, creating this surreal atmosphere. The practical effects might not wow you like today's standards, but they add a certain charm. The performances, especially from the ensemble cast, are deliberately over-the-top, making you feel like you're watching something that's both a tribute and a parody. It’s a fascinating watch for anyone interested in the evolution of German cinema.
