Review of Beat

Beat (2018)
7/10
Better than expected, worse than it could have been
31 January 2021
After the first episode I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with the series. I found the characters clichéd, Jasper in particular, and I thought the plot was a bit schematic and foreseeable. However, I continued watching and was positively surprised by how the story unfolded in ways I did not expect. I also started to like Beat's character.

In the end I thought that one or two fewer episodes would have done the series good, the story was dragged out a bit. Sadly, there were some major plot holes. For example, why was the body that fell in the harbor never mentioned again? It should have been found and the police would have figured out how it was connected to the crimes. Or why did Beat not take any pictures when he found out about the cottage?

Overall I give it a 7/10. It was enjoyable and kept me glued to the screen.
