SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

psperlman A well done period peace with great acting. A little over the top at times, but overall well worth it

jimboalistair Stylish, suspenseful and dangerously addictive. At its height, Babylon Berlin is one of the best foreign language TV shows out there. It is well acted and mostly well written but does lose itself at times in the many interweaving plot lines and can at times leave you with a bad taste in your mouth with its sometimes sloppy writing but nevertheless, Babylon Berlin is a must watch for any fan of historical dramas.

andy-lowe-email There were times early on when I was struggling to keep track of what was going on but, overall, this is one of the most intriguing and satisfying series I've ever seen on Netflix. Or anywhere else, for that matter!

joepetroch The story and setting is quite unique and compelling for this day in age: Wiemar Berlin.Negative: The dubbing into English sounds poor. A previous person commented on this in some detail. Strongly recommend watching in German with English subtitles. Some aspects of this plot are unclear and the clarity would have been appreciated. E.g., our protagonist's hazy / barbiturate-affected recollection of being pursued by "the saint" that seems to be revealed more and more over the last handful of episodes. It sufficiently confused me to the point of wondering if he had actually retrieved the reel-to-reel tapes to which so many are subject to blackmail or if that was some sort of dream sequence / induced memory? Lastly, whoever translated the date of the battle in which our protagonist abandons his brother: in German it was November 4, 1918. The translation into English comes out as Nov 14, 1918, but the war had ended on November 11, 1918. Also some of the translations into English are literal and thus somewhat nonsensical, but this is a very, very small quibble with a well done series such as this.
