The story and plot of John Grisham twisted and distorted beyond recognition. Not in the slightest plausible. There is no way a trial would continue after the judge is aware of jury tampering. The lack of a credible story is not made up with fast scene changes, mid sentence very often, and too many people talking at once. Not worth the time.

Another Netflix dud. All hectic inactivity, everybody talking at once, but nothing gets done. What is this? Why are there so many closeups of people's faces? What is the point? Trying to show personal reactions? Personal fear, people freezing with fear? What drivel. If the people in the positions all the figures depicted are in actually behaved like that in a crisis, the US would be doomed. The writers, the producer don't seem to have a clue. People love a doomsday film where people act decisively and take control.

Beautiful views, partly good acting, partly good dialogues, too many unlikely scenes, wierd dialogues, pointless lengthy music that ruins the views of the landscape, overloaded stories (why does every main character have to have serious issues in their lives?). And is there really mobile reception everywhere in the park? Highly unlikely. It feels as if it was put together by people who never go to parks, with little knowledge of the facts of police work, mobile coverage etc., for people who also spend their lives indoors, know very little of the world and have no imagination.

The strong blackfilter used is very disturbing. If the makers have a dark story to tell, create the darkness with the dialogue and setting etc. A black filter is unnecessary and makes it hard to see. I refuse to watch anything that uses cheap tricks like this.

Not worth wasting your time. Overcomplicated. Too slow moving. Costumes too over the top. Dialogues too long, too much explaining and characters talk too slowly, too many pauses. It takes the tempo out, anticlimactic. The movie only really starts after its almost over.

As is so often the case with German productions, there is far too much unnecessary and pointless shouting. Even if life on a u-boat meant a lot of time spent waiting, it seems a bit hard on viewers to put them through the same ordeal. There are too many scenes with people in unnaturally long silences. If viewers are meant to see that the characters are thinking, you can almost see the wheels turning slowly, very slowly. There is also too much stuffing with pointless conversations that don't brimg the story forward. In all, viewers will are advised to fast forward liberally.

One of the worst movies ever. Terrible storyline, unrealistic, unlikely. The writers didn't bother to do any research. Terrible filming. Not worth watching.
