Review of Bad Banks

Bad Banks (2018–2020)
7/10
Solid production, interesting with German series
2 March 2020
This is a solid production about the immoral whereabouts in the financial industry in Frankfurt. In a way it could be seen as a German variation of the US series Billions. The plot is interesting and is a quite believable powerplay in high finance. Still it is not that very engaging and quite predictable. The characters are quite diverse and interesting. Still they appear a bit flat and shallow in the portrayal. They didn't really engage on an emotional level. But, it could also be a reflection of the German culture which can appear as squary and reserved.

Anyhow it is still solid entertainment and if you are interested in the financial industry you should absolutely watch this. The series is also quite manageable in length, each season is just 6 episodes.
