UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
hatlad Firstly, who in the hell consulted them on US military uniforms and insignia? Whoever it was really took the producers' money. Staff Sergeant stripes AND 1st Lieutenant bars? Or even worse with Major's oak leaves? Good night! And all the homosexual love scenes was just ridiculous. Nothing more than an amateurist attempt at being so politically-correct as to attract followers just for that and not the amateuristic production.Mostly symbolism and little substance. And really amateur mistakes in wardrobe to boot.
kwbenson-2 While the implication is left that Lars and Sabine are twins separated at birth, the fact remains that Sabine has a sister, and it's left unclear whether she or Sabine are the elder.I'll watch season 2 if there is one, but I'll also be satisfied if it's left as is.There's no real reason for Tobias' character to be included further, and Emil can serve only to out Lars as he's the one who's seen the photos of him and Lauren together.
Bene Cumb This decade, Germany has produced dozens of good films and series about life and habits during Cold War around FRG/GDR/West-Berlin, with versatile and intertwined plots, good character actors and apt understanding of environment and way of life. Der gleiche Himmel is another good brick in this wall, where focus is not entirely on one family, enabling to provide a broader picture of repressve, yet tragicomic life in socialist parts of Germany. The events seem realistic, perhaps the last episode rounded them up a bit hastily and "by halves" - apparently according to the filmmakers´vision. As mentioned, the cast is good as well, but here, I would like to spotlight the Swedish actress Sofia Helin as Lauren; for comparison, just watch here in "The Bridge" (Scandinavian version) and you will find out how talented and varied she is! Recommended to all those interested in German lifestyle prior to unification.
Tanya G Although I have to read subtitles all the time and pause sometimes because of that, I absolutely enjoyed it. Couldn't stop watching it, actors play genuinely well. I caught myself at the thought that when I looked at Tom Schilling I saw Edward Norton.I have to admit although the TV series definitely suggest that west side is better than the east. People from the east seem more alive and genuine to me.
