Groeten van Gerri (2020)
Bad
Just another dutch movie without content... Lockdown during corona clearly doesn't make people more creative. Obvious mistakes in continuity of the camerashots, very amateur for a movie shot in 1 place. The story is not appealing, not sure if its supposed to be a comedy (not fun enough) or a drama (too shallow of a story for that). I couldn't watch it till the end. 2 stars for the effort of making a movie in difficult circumstances and the cute cat who obviously hated the movie as well...
Van der Valk (2020)
Hmm.. so confusing as a Dutch person
As a dutch person all I can say is that it is quite disrespectfull to let Dutch actors speak English in a tv show that is set in their own country... and let the main "Dutch" characters be portayed by British actors. I never saw the original version of this show so I can't compare. Its just so confusing, why set it in Amsterdam and speak English? It would only make sense if there is some crossover, but they all actually have very Dutch names and are supposed to be Dutch detectives.. Aren't there cities in GB that are good enough for this show??.. The whole thing bothered me so much I couldn't get into it, even though it seemed a quite ok as a tv show. Therefore, 4 stars, the acting was oke and the story wasn't bad.
