The Plagues of Breslau

Now if you like thrillers to be quite down and dirty, this may be your thing. This does qualify as quite the moody movie, with characters that are hard to sympathize for. Yes even the main character is quite disturbed to say the least, which is quite obvious.

A decent little thriller that will be received in different shades and expectations by those watching it. Depends on which end you fall. Well shot and edited and acted for sure

I've seen many negative reviews about the dubbing, alleged feminist agenda. Please don't believe these - just give the movie a chance. Personally, I don't like a dubbed foreign movie. I turn on original audio, but watch the English subtitles. I'm used to using subtitles because I'm hard of hearing, but it is not as distracting as you would think. Anyway, I enjoyed this movie. The plot maybe starts out familiar to others, but about half way through becomes unique. The ending was absolutely unexpected. Yes, the movie has strong female lead - but one with issues, and certainly not glorified. It is just a good serial killer drama with great location views. If you are not intimidated by foreign language films, I highly recommend this.

How refreshing to watch a movie full of unpredictable twists (who has written that it's full of cliches must be out of his mind), with a great script, excellent actors and a fast pace! Can't understand why it is so underrated

I found this a little bit of a cross between "Se7en" and "Girl with a Dragon Tattoo". Within five minutes, my phone was down and the movie had ensnared me.

Our intelligent yet churlish protagonist, (nice when they're not perfect or even friendly), jars the opening scenes with her aberrant behaviour. The swings are so opposingly stark between moods, all unpleasant- that it is a too intriguing hook by the director. Even before the first body drops. Now, I am too engaged by the protagonist's wit and motivations to care where my phone is.

The pacing and action match well to the context and storyline. Nearly all characters have been developed extremely well in the short amount of time given for a movie.

A few plot twists were pleasantly surprising which is always rather lovely.

Did watch it dubbed as I enjoy reading and hearing all the parts lost in English translation.

Overall, I found the movie intelligent, witty, and well written. The actors were great to watch. This movie has been far better than anything I have thus seen this year. Perhaps not in scale, budget, etc. However it was a welcoming change as an audience member, not to be treated as an imbecile for once, (or marketed to as if I would be on my phone the entire time.)

Acting was good by lady cop. The English dubbing was some of the best ever for a foreign film. Dialogue was very believable and not clunky. Kept me interested to the end. I happen to love the bleak atmosphere and moody music in Eastern European films.
