"Kriminalassistent Bloch" is in many ways a typical crime story. However, the acting, casting, humour, and dialogue work well above average for its genre.
Even though I myself live in a big city, I can't help but finding it funny when one of the policemen says: "Rather 10 dead men in the city than 1 in the country side." There are several good oneliners like that.
The film has a nuanced view on crime. On the one hand we are asked to have sympathy with the juvenile delinquents who live in a home near the crime scene. On the other hand we end up with little sympathy for the main villain.
Finally I'd like to mention that the film also has a critical eye on journalism.
