Having watched the sketches of FC Kip in the past years I hoped the movie would have the funny characters and dialogue. Even though the characters were represented, the story was lame and the jokes mediocre at best. If you don't know the characters or understand Dutch, you will have no connection to the movie at all. Nice attempt from Jandino to make a movie based on the success of his series/sketches FC Kip. Sketches that I enjoyed a lot. Perhaps the sketches work as they are short and the stories can pack a punch and deliver. It was nice, but nothing more than that. And that is due to the fact that I know the series FC Kip and the characters. Give it a try, you might enjoy it.

Charm only goes so far
paaskynen28 January 2019
This film builds on the personality of the main actor, who enjoyed success with a series of funny sketches set in a fast food restaurant in which he plays several ethnic characters. It was always going to be a challenge to extend short sketches into a feature-length plot.
The humor is based on very over the top, some might say offensive, stereotyping applied to most of the characters in the story. It is also pretty specific to the situation of Carribean immigrants in the Netherlands; Non-Dutch viewers might not get all references and consider it decidedly unfunny.
On the upside, the main actor in the story is quite charming (in the protagonist role; not so much in the other four roles he plays). The island of Curacao (and its capital Willemstad) are colourfully featured at the start. It is also refreshing that the scenes in the Netherlands are not set in Amsterdam, as always, but in the city of Rotterdam with its more diverse architecture.
All in all a mixed bag.

Regular... Weak...

Boring, I liked the protagonist, talented, playing countless characters, all exaggeratedly comical, it reminds me a lot of Eddie Murphy, but the style doesn't please me, worn script, it serves as a little entertainment, when there is no commitment to pay attention to the film itself...
So bad it's embarrassing
dewalle10 June 2019
This movie is so bad I feel embarrassed for the actors, writers and pretty much anyone else involved. I made it to about 25 minutes expecting that it had to get better. I mean, nobody would finance, produce, act or participate is something so terrible. This movie literally has NO redeeming values. There is nothing to be had or gained here. Run away, save your children and your soul and avoid this movie at all cost, This movie is complete garbage.
Shockingly bad

Apart from the new location and characters, it remains largely a repetitive comedy.

Bon Bini Holland 3 is the third film from the Bon Bini Holland film series. The film is directed by Pieter van Rijn, the director of Familieweekend.
In the film, Daniel (Tygo Gernandt) and his assistant Zoë (Lamara Strijdhaftig) come to FC Kip to buy the business. Robertico Florentina (Jandino Asporaat) poses as the owner of FC Kip and tries to make a deal with them. Robertico is really only doing this because he has a crush on Zoë, leaving the interests of the business and the staff behind.
To confirm the deal, they all travel to New York where Robertico must maintain credibility as the owner of FC Kip in order to successfully complete the sale and continue to impress Zoe. The rest of the FC Kip staff experience their own adventures in New York.
With this film they try to make it all bigger by bringing the film to the new location of New York. This same idea also emerged in the Flodder film Flodder in America! They only opt for a change of location, but otherwise do little with new creative comedy elements. The comedy in the film thus remains on the repetitive or predictable side. They also don't really make this film anything special compared to the previous films or TV series. By bringing the comedy to the fore in an exaggerated way, it also loses some of its credibility and is ultimately no longer comical. The film is really only fun for fans of Jandino's comedy style.
The story is also on the messy side, as it jumps back and forth between different characters played by Jandino. Most of the stories also remain on the predictable side, or don't even get a really clear ending. The more isolated storylines could have been better left out of the film. The film would have been a bit more focused and less on the long-winded side.
Jandino Asporaat again plays many well-known different characters plus some new ones in the front of this new film. Most of them keep their standard personalities and comedy sides and don't do much new in this film. Due to the amount of different characters Jandino plays, the film can sometimes become a bit messy and inimitable. Jandino's presence in the film gives the other actors little time or opportunity to work with me. Most are used more as a comedic opponent for Jandino. The chemistry between the characters is also more forced than believable.

Awesome film
bramvandeweijgert17 May 2022
Awesome movie, really liked Jandino his acting is awesome. Ik laughed so hard from this movie and Noelle is really hot. Every scene has something interesting and Judeska is super funny, i watch this movie with my parents and they laughed super hard.
Absolutely ridiculous! Drag Comedy.
cgvsluis19 August 2021
Similar to Martin Lawrence's Big Mama's House and Eddie Murphy's Nutty Professor, one actor played a bunch of quirky characters. If you like that kind of comedy, this might be for you. Steer clear if you are worried about political correctness.
Overall story about a Curaçao con artist who takes advantage of the wrong guy on the island and is sent by his family to live with his aunt in Amsterdam. While in Amsterdam his con artist juices are flowing and he tries to set up a scam on a self-made Curaçao born businessman named Ken Maduro. He discovers that he has already met Ken's daughter, Noella, and he may be in love with her...which wrecks havoc on his conscience...until the bad guys find him.
Loaded with stereotypes and Lots of ridiculous and crazy scenes including a misunderstanding in which Robert thinks he is getting to see Oprah vs going to the opera with Noella.
