Criminosos

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.

One advice, keep away from it, at all costs. AT ALL COSTS. This is a pure cheesy, lousy, clumsy, garbage junk destined to homewives.... I expêcted a violent, rough, gritty, poignant series, but I must admit that after seeing GOMORRA, I was really handicaped, because NO SERIES, can give you the same terrific feelings as this Italian masterpiece, and certainly not this piece of sh.... Unbearable characters, - especially this man that should be under diet instead of acting - lousy acting, and those unnbearable romance lines, ROMANCE !!!! In such a story which the ONLY good point is that it is not boring. Yes, not boring, that's the only reason why I could make it till the end. But...Oh my God!!! CROOKS, yes, all the makers of this crap are definitely CROOKS.

The only reason I could imagine why this series has so many negative reviews is maybe because one is used to the Hollywood style movies and watched this one in English.

You should really watch it in the original language with subtitles, makes a huge difference! I watched it in the original language and did not find the acting so bad at all.

Now coming to the plot, I found it very interesting and quite suspenseful and made me wanna watch the next one after each episode.

Overall I find the series worth the watch, with good acting, good enough cinematography and a balance of action and humor..

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.

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.
