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.

The movie would have been better if it weren't so many mistakes. At one point a woman arrives in Amsterdam and walks to a parking garage. Only everything is written in Greek. Uniforms of the Dutch police are incorrect, they wear Belgian police hats. And so many more mistakes.

To be fair, most of us do associate countries with certain things. One of the things you probably associate Italy with is Spaghetti and Pizza (which is kind of funny considering where those things were actually invented, but it only goes to show you, that we sometimes only touch the surface). Another thing we do think of is the mafia.

Cliches that are being put on display here - but they are also being talked about. A good thing then - seeing through things and being able to distinguish. This will not be a philosophical movie though. This is a thriller - and murder (they wrote/commited). Decent enough even if it may fail to really be great overall.

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.
