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 really good, definitely with that European-pulse... it goes at a steadily-fueled-pace... all actors filling their characters-parts exceptionally-well... you can watch it once again, even shortly after first-viewing, and it readily holds interest

... there are numerous Euro-crime-dramas with differences in the genre distinctly flavored by all the large number of varying countries producing their own individualized works.. and they have risen all together, each producing hi-quality streaming-experiences... regardless of requiring subtitles, as they to have become better-experiences... could-shoulda-been a good-couple-several season-series.

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 ?

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.

Yesterday finished German series 'Schlafende Hunde' aka 'Sleeping Dog'

It's based on Israeli series.

It's a slow burn crime thriller.

Start was confusing, Viewers get confused just like main character.

There are many characters and everyone has backstories, Which are sometimes unnecessary and doesn't add-up anything to main plot, it's just for filler.

Main plot is okay.

It has some typical tropes.

Suspended cop with Amnesia, portrayed as bad dad and bad husband, has messed up personal life, looking for redemption and trying to remember things.

They add-up some german tropes like LGBTQ, Racism, Nazi angle and social commentary on that.

Cinematography is good. Decent acting.

I would say, it's a decent one time watch.

Available on Netflix.
