El pasado no duerme

The show is quite interesting it has mysteries right fron the start, the cast put a great effort in making this characters unique from one another, throughout the series you gonna ask yourself who is really the one that doing this that, upon watching the series in continuation answers from the mysteries will unveil, but there is some unpredictable scenes that really shocked me, and its really great for this kind of series. It is shorter than expected and i wish they extended the episodes so we can hear the stories beyond the main cast.

Still, overall the show is great max riemelt and the other cast really put their effort throughout this series and we appreciated it.

Wish it will become available in more countries c'mon netflix..

It's a slow burn but it doesn't get boring. The story of Mike Atlas is engaging made more complicated because he has a wife and daughter who're clueless about what's happening to him, and who are just about to give up on him.

The viewer, like Mike, is bent on pursuing the leads that would jog his memory to remember his past and uncover his mistake.

It's a typical German production quite competent in its execution. The cinematography is great; the script is tight, well-written. The characters come alive with their own backstories.

The actors do justice to the roles they are assigned to give life to. Special mention to Max Riemelt, Melika Foroutan and Carlo Ljubek.

In english, it's sleeping dog, but in german, it's schlafende hunde. A six episode arc, with two directors and three writers. According to imdb, this is a remake of the israeli series exchange principle, which had three chapters. Atlas, a former cop, is living on the streets. But has not given up trying to solve an old cold case. He breaks into offices after hours, and tries to stay under the radar. Andergast, the public prosecutor, also wants to reopen the case, but for very different reasons. Lots of mysteries and questions. Witnesses that won't come forward, for various reasons. Some are getting knocked off. They seem to be up against powerful families that stick together, and will do anything to succeed. Both atlas and andergast have people helping them and people working against them. Lots of suspense and drama. Mostly good stuff! Although one of the cops held up evidence, a hand gun, while wearing gloves. But he held the gun right where the suspect's fingerprints would be !! Bad cop.

It held my interest from the start and watched Sleeping Dog over two nights. There were times when I questioned certain situations that were lacking in probability as when the daughter of a police officer gets in a stranger's car because he says he knows her father. Some people in authority have shifty eyes and know one helps each other out. There never seems to be much traffic in Berlin and a scene where one party says we have to go to a place more quiet but they are the only ones in a park along a river. Yes, one elderly man is in the distance,so what. A young attractive district attorney is always acting like an undercover investigator running down alleys or entering dark cellars. She claims s she witness a murder and asks Should I got to the police ?

Yes, it starts off a bit confusing, as the plot is quite complex. That pays off afterwards thought. It's a German conspiracy thriller with good twists and you sitting on the TV trying to figure out, who is responsible. Even after a few episodes, it's hard to understand what happened. For me personally, that's what gives a good thriller the suspense. For some people it might be confusing, as you have to be awake and concentrated at times. I liked this show.

The acting is really good, especially Peri Baumeister, who acts as the wife of ex-cop Atlas and himself, Max Riemelt, do a great job here.

I'd reccomend the series to everyone, who likes Scandi-Noir-TV!
