Drei und eine halbe Portion

Two crash pilots from BravoAir have to fight crime with their dim-witted mechanic, the beautiful daughter of a beaten-up police inspector, and the mechanic's 15-year-old godson. Not only are the three of them and the little one clumsy, but so are the gangsters and the police.

Directed by Sigi Rothemund, Drei und eine halbe Portion leans on a strong ensemble — Jürgen Hingsen, Rolf Milser, Karl Dall — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1985.
