Blackout

Wer das Buch gelesen/gehört hat wird leider sehr enttäuscht. Spannende Teile werden weggelassen und andere Sachen werden frei dazu empfunden. Ich konnte nicht weiter als Folge 2 gucken. Das Buch leider in ein sehr schlechtes Licht gerückt. Schade, aus dem Buch hätte man sehr viel mehr machen können. Hoffentlich kriegen wir eines Tages eine Hollywood-artige Verfilmung des Buches oder einer Mark Elsberg's Bücher.

--- Those who read the book will be very disappointed. Many interestting facts and story parts were discared and new parts were created just to fill there voids with no connection to the original. I couldn't get myself to watch more then two episodes. The book was sadly put in a bad light. Too bad, the book had such high potential! Maybe one day we will get a hollywood great movie version of the book or one of Mark Elsberg's other books.

The most surprising thing about Blackout is that Germany would turn in to a post apocalyptic nightmare in less than 4 days. They'd run out of food and water in two days, and apparently there's only one couple in Germany that has solar power?

These are Germans. Masters of efficiency. I don't see how any of the above would happen in less than a month. I could see it happening in America in under a week, but not Germany.

Started well but then it tracked out. I really hope politicians and the police in Germany are smarter in reality.

Otherwise some good acting contributions.

Characterization poorly written, scenarios that are illogical and glaring plot holes. The series has an interesting premise but the execution is awful. Save yourself the time. This show is bad.

I really liked the book, but the show made many things that are well explained in the book look very unlogical. If you can handle this, the show is still a good production with interesting characters. It is a good show for two or three boring evenings during a lockdown. Nothing special, but good entertainment.
