You won't be disappointed!

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Babylon Berlin is perhaps the best thriller I have ever seen, and there's no need to duplicate all the rapturous praise everyone else has given. But the worst CRITICISM I see of the series here is that the German dialogue is dubbed into English rather than subtitled. Some people have given it low ratings just because of that.But that's completely silly. Europeans often prefer dubbing, because people can listen faster than they can read, so dubbing can give you a more accurate picture of what's being said. Subtitles inevitably show you only a sampling of the actual words being said.But if you prefer subtitles, it's easy to change the dubbing. Click on the little gear at the bottom of the screen, turn on the English subtitles, and turn the dialogue from dubbed English back to the original German. Problem solved.

First couple of episodes were very good. Cinematography is excellent, actors are good, production values are very impressive and the storyline is interesting at first. But after eight or so episodes, it just drags. Really slow, and seems to meander between the sub plots, and revisit events unnecessarily. I found myself struggling to summon enough enthusiasm to finish the series, mostly persuaded by the hours I had already invested rather than any excitement to watch the conclusion.

There were times early on when I was struggling to keep track of what was going on but, overall, this is one of the most intriguing and satisfying series I've ever seen on Netflix. Or anywhere else, for that matter!

Don't watch it dubbed... after seeing first 4 episodes on my phone subtitled I started to watch on another device dubbed. Bad move! Dubbing is horrible!!!
