Maxton Hall - Die Welt zwischen uns

Okay binge watched this in ONE SITTING - exam days truly do bring out the best in me lol

I liked the trailer but I was half expecting another trashy guilty pleasure thing BUT NOPE THIS WAS ACTUALLY UNEXPECTEDLY GOOD??

The CHEMISTRY was off the charts and the leads are hawt together!

The chemistry was oozing since their first scene together lol I loved this but wtf is that cliffhanger GIVE ME S2 ASAP.

I wished for a longer enemies arc than 2 eps - like y'all could've made it 8 eps - but it's okay cause the love part hit all the right tropes too!

It's been a while since a teen drama has given me everything I wanted as a romance girlie AND I LOVE THIS.

I'm a man. At first, I thought this was just another typical teen romance series - the formulaic Cinderella plot of a girl meeting a boring prince charming. But the actual content is shockingly heavy on the personal struggles and issues of every character. The show deftly alternates between romantic scenes and intense dramatic plotlines in a seamless way. It tells the stories of these characters' personal issues alongside the awkward, slowly developing romance. The actors deliver very natural and charismatic performances. And the tight 6-episode structure allows for an intense, focused narrative throughout. I highly recommend not missing this one - don't judge it just by its outward appearances.

I'll be brief..this series had me wanting to watch it again immediately after finishing. The script and writing were great. Although it's a classic enemies to lovers, it felt different. It was so well paced that you didn't want to stop watching. When I tell you you'll be hooked, you WILL. One of the best things, IMO, is how they are on a roller coaster with one another just when you get a tease of something, boom, back down to the bottom. The leads' chemistry is insane and makes the draw so good. Definitely one of the best romance series in a long time!! I don't know of anything I would compare it to, because it's leaps and bounds better.

As an avid romance book reader - especially of Indie romance novels - this ticks every single box of my expectations of book to film adaptions. Production companies - TAKE NOTE! THIS is how you do romance. THIS is how you adapt page to film!! This was so beautifully done. So much care was given to detail. The most important piece was the casting of the leads. Both were perfectly casted and their chemistry was the best I've ever seen. The timing, writing, pacing, music - all of it was masterfully put together to create the most beautiful, intense love story on screen. The chemistry and absolute TENSION between these two characters/actors. I bought it all - hook, line, and sinker. The male lead was perfect playing a caged rich boy - his acting and mannerisms were equivalent to jumping off the page of the book. He did nonchalant AND expressed his emotions SO WELL. These two main leads are honestly some of the best actors I've ever seen. I really hope more shows and films get made like this. This is going to be something I rewatch over and over again. I can't wait for the next season!

Despite my scepticism, I loved it. Binge watched it over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the whole show.

The UK based German angle was a tad confusing but despite that it was super entertaining. I liked the cast, felt they embodied their roles really well and even though the story line resembles a number of other shows, it still hit the mark.

I hope they finish the story with another season so we can find out how it plays out. It would be good if the producers don't fall into the trap of thinking they need multiple seasons to tell the story.... It could be wrapped up in Season 2 and that would work.
