It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Cobra 11 is undoubtedly one of the most predictable television shows ever produced. Basically every episode begins with an enormous pile-up on the Autobahn and ends with the two heroes chasing the main villain into his or her destruction, which usually comes in the form of a spectacular crash and/or a massive explosion. Coincidences are so unbelievable that they can only occur in one's dreams as far as reality is concerned. If the two heroes are discussing organically produced food, a tanker truck filled with organically produced milk will crash in front of them and they will discover crime related to the company owning it. If they are discussing new technologies, someone will use a revolutionary weapon to sabotage a car driving on the Autobahn. And these are just two of meanwhile a couple of hundred examples.The show follows the trends set by Hollywood movies, technological progress, consumerism and globalization, relying heavily on them. New cars, pastimes and gadgets are often prominently featured and some episodes look like a mash-up of elements from a number of popular Hollywood films like Speed, Bruce Willis' action flicks, Lethal Weapon or The Fast and the Furious series. Stereotypes are innumerable. The villains are often members of Eastern European, Italian or South American organized crime, truck drivers pick up prostitutes and/or engage in illegal activities to get a raise from a murky boss, lawyers and prosecutors are egoistic and arrogant, bored men sift through Playboy magazines, teenagers are drugged-up as they fool around and make chaos. However, there are also some surprising villains and situations, such as the tenants of a retirement home who smuggle drugs or two preteen boys stealing a dump truck and taking it for a joyride on the Autobahn, unsurprisingly causing a pile-up.Continuity mistakes are equally omnipresent. In the show's early days, these mistakes were so common and obvious that they significantly contributed to its comedic value, especially in the absence of any meaningful story. I still laugh out loud every time I see the two heroes' BMW being suddenly replaced by its predecessor model - equipped with plastic stickers in the producers' futile attempt to conceal the obvious switch - right before being totaled in a spectacular crash or while being shot at by the bad guys. Meanwhile, it would be too optimistic to expect any meaningful continuity anyway, with the show going on for twenty years and some actors having played up to four or five different villains.Overall, Cobra 11 is a relatively entertaining show that often features some great stunts and car action. However, one should not expect realistic and unpredictable plots. Additionally, many stories were recycled over the years, but this is nothing to be surprised about in today's movies and television shows. The performances are mostly mediocre and sometimes fairly cheesy.

Great actions,and great acting,with mostly good story.This is a television series,and this means the creators time after time have to investigate the concept,and this is not work all the time,but we mostly forgive this cause real movie fans knows why is this series is for.Creators can change in a television series,don't wait all the time the same,they will try to make the same quality,but lot of things depends on you.(what you wait from this)Sometimes it's become routine like every other series,but I still recommend this series.This series is about great actions,and suspenseful situations,sometimes good plot also can help,give this a try,mostly this won't disappoint you.7/10

This series is great! Yes, it has plot holes you could hide a city in. (Not a small one.) Yes, it alway, always starts with a huge, huge crash on the autobahn, were miraculously nobody gets hurt. The acting is often bad, and the subplots obvious, to say the least. But it's fun anyway. It has the sort of charisma usually connected with the shows you watched as a kid (Knight Rider, A-Team) which plots were silly but who where great too watch. And all the Hollywood clichés used- that's just great. Just expect nothing in the line of plot and some great stunts and I promise you'll be satisfied. Most of all, this series is lovingly done, something which isn't always (or mostly) the case with German TV series.

Well, after I watched some episodes of this series, I asked myself why so many Germans watch this TV-series... I mean, in one episode there's a huge crash on the highway, with explosions and obviously heaps of injured people, and the first thing the two "policemen" did was to get out their guns and shoot into this wall of fire!!! Not caring about whether they shoot anybody, not caring about anything! In another episode there was another crash (surprise, surprise...) and the ambulance came. Did anybody notice that the crash took place on the highway near Berlin and the ambulance car was from Wuppertal (which is more than 600 kilometres far from Berlin)? Huh, seems to me that this ambulance car was beamed over to Berlin, eh? Well, at last the makers of this series changed the place to Cologne (where the series has always been made!)... Great work, boys, really, great work...
