Duisburg - Linea di sangue

Bad filmmaking, terrible location scouting and lazy production design. There are better movies to watch.

Good subject for a film. But unconvincing manuscript and mostly poor acting. Will stay away from this director.

A TV film by the Italian broadcaster RAI that has made it into the program of the global streaming service NETFLIX! It is about the notorious Mafia murders in Duisburg, which deeply shocked the whole of Germany on Ferragosto (15 August) 2007. The German TV actor Benjamin SADLER plays a German investigator who, together with his colleague (Daniele LIOTTI) from Reggio di Calabria, is able to solve the case after several years. It becomes clear how the Mafia benefits from family connections. In addition, it has long since outgrown Calabria and Italy. The film is a typical TV production, but it benefits from the exciting topic and the explosive event.

Quite good plot and actors. But the location scout has probably used the budget for other purposes. In Amsterdam all cars have white plates, old police and ambulance are hired. White appartment in Geeman style are not find in Holland. Neither one will find hills in or around the Dutch capital. Very poor work.

The plot is there and since it's a true story it's helping, but production is very bad as if shot in mobile. Could be done in a better way and actors are weak.
