Der letzte Klick - Tödliche Online-Begegnungen

I admit, I love to watch true crime and documentaries. This series fits the bill. Interesting cases, well presented and short episodes. Such a great binge watch. Keep the episodes coming!

This series was really eclectic where some of the episodes were action packed and some felt like a teleplay.

The dramatizations had decent actors (perhaps far too attractive in many of the cases - definitely intentional), really informative cases with excellent experts and the tech breakdown of how things played out online was matter of fact and void of scandalous tabloid tidbits. The series stuck to the facts.

I watched 3/4 of the series on TUBI in one day because the eps were only 18 mins and breezed by like nothing.

The downfall was the short running time and wrapping up the shows very fast but the good music and quality of the cinematography make up for the music video speed of the show.

Although it deserves an 8.0 rating, I'm giving it a 10 rating because it's a very different approach to the true crime format and paid a lot of homage to the victims and justice.

Many of these people will be forgotten, this series really did a great job in humanizing the victims and celebrating their lives. Most true crime delves into darkness and many of the victims are blamed or shamed.

This show has lower production values than Lifetime minutes. Reminds me of some of the lesser Oxygen channel or ID channel shows (many shows on those networks are good, but the bad ones stink).

Narrator sounds like a robot, terrible "acting", same bad video clips used over and over.

ABOUT MY REVIEWS:

I do not include a synopsis of the film/show -- you can get that anywhere and that does not constitute a meaningful review -- but rather my thoughts and feelings on the film that hopefully will be informative to you in deciding whether to invest 90-180 minutes of your life on it.

Effective immediately as of the day that I am writing this, I am docking at least one star for every documentary that takes us into the director's chair. I am tired of seeing the clapperboard clapped and the pre-show banter banter between the off screen narrator and guest, or the guests pre-show musings. Historically networks would have been embarrassed if that wasn't edited out, but now it's become common useless filler and utter garbage. Minus one star for you, do better.

My scale: 1-5 decreasing degrees of "terrible", with 5 being "mediocre" 6- OK. Generally held my interest OR had reasonable cast and/or cinematography, might watch it again 7 - Good. My default rating for a movie I liked enough to watch again, but didn't rise to the upper echelons 8- Very good. Would watch again and recommend to others 9- Outstanding. Would watch over and over; top 10% of my ratings 10 - A classic. (Less than 2% receive this rating). For Lifetime Movies for Chicks (LMFC), drop the above scale by 3 notches. A 6 is excellent and 7 almost unattainable.
