No - not Army pocket knives, nor cheese, banks or Cuckoo-clocks, but Dope and the Mafia. I used to work with a bunch of Swiss blokes and the two main topics were Dope and the Mafia.

Now here is the truth about 'Achtung, fertig, Charlie!': I've read other user's comments and I got the feeling they didn't like the movie but I can tell you why: because they are Swiss themselves and they don't like to hear the truth. A bit sad that this is the best Switzerland has to offer in terms of comedy. The comedy is rarely funny and there are a handful pretty cringeworthy scenes/references. This 90-minute film here is not really memorable at all in my opinion. And honestly, I am not particularly surprised.
Director Mike Eschmann went on to direct another military comedy a couple years later, but he is not really working today anymore in the business.
He was actually a fairly known comedian for a while, even here in Germany. The only one I was familiar with here is Marco Rima. Melanie Winiger, the female lead, still does some acting here and there and managed to build a successful career from this film.
He also does not really have a career in acting now over a decade later, but he focuses on directing. Honestly, it may be one of these cases of looks over talent why they got cast, especially for the male protagonist. For both lead actors, it was the first performance in a film and I am not really sure about their performances. However, I did not think it was really that funny. "Achtung, fertig, Charlie!" is a Swiss comedy movie from 12 years ago and possibly the most famous from Switzerland in terms of the genre when it comes to 21st century movies.
