Say your opinion, but watch min 5 episodes but already from episode one it's cool, keeps the tension up and you're really feverish, got a load of snakes, tonight again 3 episodes on cozy 😁

I'll do that, but I won't get around to it today.

A very interesting movie is The Wave, it was recommended to me, I had a discussion with a friend about Manipulation and so on, it came up and I can only recommend it, really worth seeing.

It's a bit older but maybe some of you haven't seen it yet.

Tomorrow evening we continue with Blacklist, old episodes 9 and 10 of the first season are right
Fierce ayyaya

Very good movie that shows very well how quickly you can be trapped in an ideology

I'm currently watching the mini-series "Save" on Netflix, 8 episodes. English production. I think one of the main actresses is the one from Stranger Things, I haven't looked, but visually it should be her. But not sure.

The basic story isn't new, but basics like in every crime movie. Short version: party, drugs, 2 teenagers go missing, one of them is found dead drowned in the pool shortly after the party. The main character's wife has died, leaving the family in mourning.

So far so basic story.

But what I find mega about the series is the stylistic device of allusion. Whether in dialog or fade-in / fade-out scenes, the viewer is given a hint as to what person X was up to or what might have happened in this scene. Some scenes are clear, but many are only hinted at, so you have to think about it yourself. I don't know of any other series that does this in this way and with this frequency without it becoming annoying.

I've finished 6 out of 8 episodes, today the remaining 2. I hope that the ending makes sense and that all the issues are resolved.

So until episode 6, a clear recommendation!

Has anyone ever seen this Helgoland .... Series on Sky? I think it was some kind of end-time survival.

Is it worth it?

I read through the reviews on MoviePilot. The series definitely doesn't come off well. Which doesn't surprise me for a German production. You're bound to be embarrassed. There can be exceptions.

Update: I was very disappointed with the ending. The final plot twist was surprising and therefore nice, but I found that all the information was simply crammed into the last episode. In my opinion, that didn't fit in with the emotion that the story actually wanted to build up.

As always, subjective of course.

Too bad, I haven't managed to start yet. I'll treat myself to it anyway, because I usually find series with 6 to 8 episodes quite enjoyable.
