An atmospheric film and the German Wadden Island feels nice and depressing, but it is a bit predictable from the start. I would have preferred that we didn't know from the start that Helena was up to anything. A mystery would have done the movie better. Still, I could sit it out just fine, because events are piling up at a nice rapid pace.

3.0*

Captivating story with a good structure seasoned with some romance and enough suspense in a beautiful setting. The camera work is fine and makes for some fantastic shots. In addition, a solid convincing cast, especially Helena and Nina play their roles very well. It may not be really mysterious because as a viewer you can see where the story is going. The scene in the library comes across as unbelievable, but that is the only blemish on this nice thriller. 6.5/10

Weak. Just about every kill in this movie is very poorly planned and succeeds only by luck. The second alone: wrong-way driving where it is unbelievable that the teacher knew that indeed the parents would be the oncoming car, that they swerved, then hit a tree and then both died. Furthermore, you don't strangle someone in a minute. It's all far-fetched and so are the motives. Of course I know films where everything is even more sought after, but they are convincing. That is the job of a film, not to convey realism, but to convince the viewer of a world within the film, even if that world is not realistic. And this movie fails to do that at all. 1*.
