You Are Wanted

A well-acted cyber-thriller. Nice to see some unfamiliar faces and that the makers didn't feel the need to make it a beauty contest.The plot isn't novel but it's well constructed and doesn't hand out the answers on a plate.

I did find the first 2 episodes rather slow but then it picked up the pace and I had to binge watch the rest. At a total of 6 episodes it doesn't overstay its welcome like most American dramas. It won't change your life but is an easy watch if you're in the mood for a thriller.

BTW I don't understand reviewers whinging about bad overdubs. If you can't be bothered reading subtitles then why bother watching anything not made in the English language?

So, you have German, Vietnamese, and English languages throughout the show - if you've ever watched any dubbed movie - you can obviously tell it's being dubbed over in a different language. With that said, I think this show could have done a bit better with that, and why I had to take away 1 star.

I thought Season 2 was even better than Season 1 (that's where the characters and storyline must be established, so of course it's going to be a bit slower). There are so many twists, and alliances with people you would never expect! But the main character, Lukas, is willing to lose everything for his family - a man on the edge is always interesting to watch the things he will do, and how far he's willing to risk even his own life for the end result. I hope there will be a Season 3. The ending here was OMG!! But, I still feel as if it left some questions unanswered?

Definitely Recommend - due to a crafty storyline!

A lot of user reviews for this have been pretty negative, calling the plot "plodding" or "too slow." Personally, I loved it. Maybe it's my love of a good slow burn. Maybe it's because I like the change of pace in this versus American shows, which seem to need action or intense character drama for every second of screen-time. Probably it's both. While it wasn't as action-packed as shows I usually watch, I found every second of it very engaging, with the end of each episode catching me off- guard. It's not a new plot, but the acting is good and the characters are interesting enough that I was invested in them very early on. It's smartly put together, and know how to take a breath every once in awhile.

I honestly had no real expectations for the show, I only found out about it yesterday (well really I stumbled upon it). I was bored sick of watching the same kind of things so I said what the hell I'll give it a shot. I ended up watching and couldn't stop, It had me engrossed in the story from the start to finish. I like watching foreign movies and t.v shows I mostly watch Asian, I think this is the first German show I have seen if other German shows are as good as this I'll be watching more of them. The only pity is that it was only 6 episodes long I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that a season 2 comes out and it has more episodes. There's no glamorized nonsense in this like the majority of shows out there or nothing blown up every 5 minutes, this has a almost realistic feel to it it's a great show to watch so don't be turned away by the bad reviews and decide for yourself I for one will be watching out for a season two because I enjoyed.

OK, the plot has no innovative Ideas. It is a mix out of 24, Mr. Robot and has a often misplaced family Story, as seen in Homeland Season 2. But at the end... who cares? The result from that mix is a good entertaining show, including some visually stunning pictures & a well fitting Soundtrack. My hint to the marketing: Don't use the words hacking, hacker or hacked so often in the advertisements. It will disappoint some viewers.

As you can see, you have only >100 Votes and only 4 Reviews. And i'm pretty sure, some votes are only against Mr. Schweighoefer, often blamed as "overrated". It is not comparable to Breaking Bad, Mr. Robot or other Top 150 Shows.

But definitely worth seeing.
