Criminosos

I have got this series from a girl friend after I didn't have anything to watch on Netflix.

This series rocked really and I enjoyed to see every episode because it was always very entertaining. I mean there was good acting, nice locations and the story was sticked with suspens and original plots.. It was never boring and the end lets all open for a sequel. Congratulations to all the staff and the actors who did a very good job.

I recommend it to everyone who wants to check out an interesting thriller with emotional moments packed with action. I rate it solid 7/10 for this high entertainment value.

The first few episodes had some good moments, but with each subsequent episode the plot became more and more predictable, full of clichés, the characters were mostly flat and boring. I know that all the dialects are there to better represent the characters and the different groups, to show the local distance and also to clarify the social differences, but often it ended in a minute-long mumble in which nothing could be understood. Why do you have to mumble like that?

Unfortunately, the acting performance of some of the actors was anything but credible. I keep asking myself what makes some German actors think that they have mastered their craft!

Sadly, it was a waste of time and it dragged on like chewing gum.

The question is can a story about a gold coin be that interesting to hold the viewer in rapt attention all throughout the series? Yes. This is one instance where the viewer gets into a roller-coaster ride from Berlin to Vienna to Marseilles. The ride has enough traction that the viewer is willing to invest his time as the main protagonists go from one mishap to another.

The actors are competent in performing their roles credibly and naturally without hysteria. One can ask another pertinent question: can the relationship of Charly (Frederick Lau) and Joseph (Christoph Krutzler) happen in real life? I guess so if we consider their respective personalities.

The length of the episodes are just right, which means the pacing is ok. And the actors, coming as they do from different ethnic backgrounds, are able to pull off the scenes.

The last episode suggests another season is possible.

This series deserves your time and attention.

The series captivates with its compelling narrative, keeping viewers glued to their screens. It offers a raw, unapologetic depiction of the underworld, distinct from conventional portrayals by other directors or movies. The creators spare no detail in showcasing the harsh realities and violence of the underground scene. Through a diverse cast of characters and cultural influences from across Europe, the show delivers a fast-paced, action-packed experience that seamlessly weaves together various plot-lines into one cohesive narrative. The slight friction between Germany and Austria is entertaining in terms of language specifics / the way how close and far from each other the two countries are. Worth watching! Thumbs up!

There is no way, German series at least on Netflix tends to be stupid. This series begins well, then it lapses into idiocy in order to follow the usual plot. Two people get an object many criminals want surviving to many perils in several trivial ways. In the most unlikely ways, other 2 people try to escape other criminals which want their vengeance. Just to understand: imagine a city where hundreds of villains search for 2 people and just the two leaders meet them casually for unreliable reasons annoyed because of unsatisfying results in the search. Unbelievable. One of the protagonist always understand the real intentions of his opponents... What absurdity.
