You Are Wanted

A well-acted cyber-thriller. Nice to see some unfamiliar faces and that the makers didn't feel the need to make it a beauty contest.The plot isn't novel but it's well constructed and doesn't hand out the answers on a plate.

I did find the first 2 episodes rather slow but then it picked up the pace and I had to binge watch the rest. At a total of 6 episodes it doesn't overstay its welcome like most American dramas. It won't change your life but is an easy watch if you're in the mood for a thriller.

BTW I don't understand reviewers whinging about bad overdubs. If you can't be bothered reading subtitles then why bother watching anything not made in the English language?

A lot of user reviews for this have been pretty negative, calling the plot "plodding" or "too slow." Personally, I loved it. Maybe it's my love of a good slow burn. Maybe it's because I like the change of pace in this versus American shows, which seem to need action or intense character drama for every second of screen-time. Probably it's both. While it wasn't as action-packed as shows I usually watch, I found every second of it very engaging, with the end of each episode catching me off- guard. It's not a new plot, but the acting is good and the characters are interesting enough that I was invested in them very early on. It's smartly put together, and know how to take a breath every once in awhile.

This series is so drawn out. It would have been decent if it were boiled down to a 3 episode mini series (series 1) - yep, that's right, halved. There is so much filler. Also, I might have rated it higher if I hadn't already seen Dutch show "Bellicher". This actually feels like a remake. It's so "paint by numbers", even down to law enforcement agencies having a peeing contest over jurisdiction. I'm sure you'll have seen this all before.

I really enjoyed this series. The plot was very tense, I found the cinematography highly artistic and the actors quite talented. Good job Germany! Also thank you for not trying to copy Hollywood – would have been pretty cheesy. By the way, I never expected to see Matthias Schweighoefer in an action series. Well done, Matthias!

I honestly had no real expectations for the show, I only found out about it yesterday (well really I stumbled upon it). I was bored sick of watching the same kind of things so I said what the hell I'll give it a shot. I ended up watching and couldn't stop, It had me engrossed in the story from the start to finish. I like watching foreign movies and t.v shows I mostly watch Asian, I think this is the first German show I have seen if other German shows are as good as this I'll be watching more of them. The only pity is that it was only 6 episodes long I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that a season 2 comes out and it has more episodes. There's no glamorized nonsense in this like the majority of shows out there or nothing blown up every 5 minutes, this has a almost realistic feel to it it's a great show to watch so don't be turned away by the bad reviews and decide for yourself I for one will be watching out for a season two because I enjoyed.
