Alex and his pregnant girlfriend Anna can't find an affordable flat. Anna's father, Swiss Army Commander Reiker, is ready to help, but on the condition that Alex - a pacifist and yoga teacher - shape up his troops.
Alex and his girlfriend Anna have a problem: Anna is about to give birth to their child and they cannot seem to find an affordable apartment. The only one who can help them is Anna's father, Commandant Reiker, who happens to own a vacant house. But Reiker has problems of his own: his battalion is threatened by budget cuts. He desperately needs someone who can help him save his paltry unit. So Alex, who is unfit for service, and Reiker make a pact which not only makes a proper mess of the Swiss Armed Forces, but also leads Alex's relationship with Anna to the brink of disaster.

You don’t get to see Swiss movies every day; that’s why the channel Cinemax really aroused my interest when it offered the premiere of this particular flick one evening. At first glance, it looks really interesting. In reality, however, the premise was better than the actual movie. It wasn’t that bad as a comedy but the jokes sometimes reminded me of the German Girls on Top (2001), as it contains similarly half-baked funny scenes. As a result, some of them turn out alright but others are super cringy. Thankfully, there are no unlikable characters so I had no problems watching this to the end.
