Not Good...Not Good At all

OK, we have here Cliff "PT-109" Robertson, and the magnificent Paul Winfield, filming locations include the city of Berlin, so how can we go wrong? Easy. Just put Ms. Sammi Davis in the lead role. This poor woman could not act her way out of a subway turnstile. She has no range, no sense of timing, no facial expressions and cannot even move from point A to point B on screen convincingly.

It's obvious that Ms Davis took the screen name in an effort to cash in on the Late Sammy's fame. She should have taken some acting classes too.

Whatever is left of this movie is eclipsed by the pitiful non-effort exuded by Sammi. You will not find this one hard to pass up.

Interesting Story

The acting is just passing. This is about 50/50 German/US cast. I think the US actors are 2nd tier... For the German actors, it is probably language, production style etc that makes them weaker. Also they are mostly TV actors from the look of it. I like the setting and story. Many things are underplayed in a serious circumstance. The story confuses 2 plots which does not add to the movie. For the cost of the production, sites, etc this could have been a 10. This does cover current issues in Europe and current ways of thinking in my opinion (good or bad). I would say this is the type of movie you see on cable and that is where I saw it. The mob guys in this are not portrayed well and movie bad guy roles are usually not hard to do.

I've seen worse big budget versions

This is obviously a made for TV film, (I could be wrong) but it's none the worse for that. Tracy Garret (Sammi Davis) has a nightmare on a crime scene and is sent on leave. She gets a phone call from her Dad (Cliff Robertson) to meet him in Berlin. She meets him at a restaurant where he gets shot. Dodgy, she meets Berlin detective Erik (Dominic Raacke). A t least he seems trustworthy, unlike his boss.

It's nice to see Berlin in the midst of it's transformation in the nineties. The stories really about trafficking of Eastern Europeans and the conclusion of Tracy's case back in the States.

This one's never gonna win awards for anything, but it's pretty harmless stuff.
