The scripts are solid, despite the somewhat simple-minded police. Unfortunately, the plot leaves a lot to be desired. Tom Schilling saves the whole thing with his outstanding presence, but sometimes you do wonder what the makers were thinking. For example, an assassin throws a hand grenade into a car without first checking whether there is anyone inside. He does the same thing a second time, throwing a hand grenade into an apartment without first checking whether the person he wants to kill is even in the apartment - an apartment in which the target does not even live, but in which he is only supposed to be hiding, which the assassin's employer only knows from an intercepted phone call. What's more, a special police squad has already stormed into the apartment at this point - how can the assassin not have noticed this? This is too implausible even for a comedy.
The role of Toni is a caricature and almost destroys the series. He exudes no danger whatsoever and is not funny. Marc Hosemann really didn't have a good day here, or the director has problems leading actors. Maybe he should take some extra lessons from Guy Ritchie when it comes to bizarre supporting characters.
