Das letzte Problem (2019)
Tries to be a twist on the classic detective story
I found this movie entertaining enough, even thou it is kinda mediocre. The thing I found interesting is that it plays many of the points of classics like Poirot or Holmes.
There is the secluded location, many people with seemingly no connection, a murder in a locked room and a detective who is there completely by chance. The detective has the slightly unusual and abrasive personality that is also not uncommon in detective stories.
The actors are mostly somewhere between ok and mediocre, some scenes work well, others fall kinda flat.
My main point of criticism would be, that the suspects are too few and not interesting enough which is a major let-down if you compare it to the stories it seems to be inspired by.
Also the art- and camera direction are not especially inspired, just the usual "made for TV"-look and the ending dragged a bit.
Overall I give the movie a 6,5 mainly for playing like a slight parody of a classic detective-story.
