Decent one time slow burn

Yesterday finished German series 'Schlafende Hunde' aka 'Sleeping Dog'

It's based on Israeli series.

It's a slow burn crime thriller.

Start was confusing, Viewers get confused just like main character.

There are many characters and everyone has backstories, Which are sometimes unnecessary and doesn't add-up anything to main plot, it's just for filler.

Main plot is okay.

It has some typical tropes.

Suspended cop with Amnesia, portrayed as bad dad and bad husband, has messed up personal life, looking for redemption and trying to remember things.

They add-up some german tropes like LGBTQ, Racism, Nazi angle and social commentary on that.

Cinematography is good. Decent acting.

I would say, it's a decent one time watch.

Available on Netflix.
