    Not bad but could have been better
    This German Krimi thriller kicks off with the murder of a young woman which leads to a string of further killings and various other shenanigans. Despite a breezy location, a handful of reliable Euro actors and a reasonable general plot idea, this one suffers from poor direction and a fairly incomprehensible story. You'll be forgiven for getting lost in this one after a bit. Like Krimis in general, its fairly stylish while being more restrained than their Italian sister, the giallo. Its not bad but could have been better.
