Achtsam Morden

After a long time I watched a really good and well made series I can't wait for season 2 already, Each episode pulls you deeper into the plot, keeping you hooked with unexpected twists and emotional depth. The acting, direction and screenplay are mind blowing it just gets better and better. Hope it gets renewed for season 2. I think the main lead and all the actors have done a fabulous job and it is very mature and modern. Also the series does not play around and is not afraid to put characters in the most difficult position they can deal with is jst amazing to see unlike other shows where they favour their main lead. It's undoubtedly one of the best shows in recent memory.

This is an 8-ep, 30 mins each, dark comedy thriller that has steadily been gaining some popularity by word of mouth. Call it a...'breezy' crime thriller; which doesn't make sense, because you'd use 'breezy' for something lighthearted and not for shows/films about murder but here we are.

The protagonist is an overworked, undervalued employee at a law firm whose life is beginning to fall apart, and his asks him to sign up for a series of classes on Mindfulness. As expected, he's totally against, as he calls it, 'such BS' but as the plot goes on, he buys into the idea of mindfulness to get rid of his 'problems' in life. Can't reveal anything more without getting into spoilers.

As he attends these classes, you hear everything you've seen/heard/practiced on mindfulness. The writing is so well done that you're likely to take deep breaths and follow along with the class instructor. Wh...how?

While the show isn't mind-blowing, in fact, one may even find several flaws, but if you're looking for something quick and different to watch, I'd totally recommend this show on Netflix. It's surely worth a watch.

The series is very entertaining and diverting. The original book is also about a lawyer, so @keikoyoshikawa seems to have got something mixed up in his review. The lawyer learns how to deal with certain situations from his mindfulness coach. The series is very closely modelled on the book. Only some of the supporting characters are different. I really enjoyed 'Mindful Murder'. It is a fast-paced production. There is not only this series, but also a corresponding theatre play, which I have already seen. The series and the play have the same structure. I'm already looking forward to the second season.

Murder Mindfully (German Language): Achtsam Morden. Netflix 2024 Unassuming Lawyer Bjorn, struggle with pressure, failing marriage, not seeing his daughter enough, guilt over representing local gangland boss etc.

What does he do to resolve this problems he seeks spiritual guidance.

After attending a course of "mindfulness" his life turns around for the better, with added complications,

If you consider Break Bad as the premise these types of programmes you'll get the idea.

It is thoroughly entertaining and very watchable and worth 4 hours of anyone times (8x1/2 episodes)

The only spoiler I will give, I think the maker have left it open to enable a second series, which it does warrant.

If you are a Fan of Black comedy or mystery Crime Shows this is for you after "Dark" we have finally got another high quality TV series it feels kinda like Breaking Bad but alot faster story progress without the Drama and more Black Comedy the tension is all the time there and the Methodic of "Achtsamkeit" is brilliant involved into the Show it is very well made. The casting is great Tom Schilling one of the best actors Germany has plays this Role perfectly from Caring family man to his other side also his crime Partner plays pretty good. This show is Based of a novel you can Tell its very well made into a TV Show. Its one of those Shows you cant get enough off because it is so good. A total suprise never heard much of it only after the Release. Hopefully we see more of this Show it has alot of Potential.
