Tatort: Game Over (2023)
Exciting thriller blurring the lines between VR and reality
Whilst a connection between various real life crimes and a fanatical gaming community becomes obvious quite soon, the movie stays suspenseful until the end as the story takes many unexpected turns until coming to its final conclusion. The police plays a double role as various suspects are cops, which adds to the suspense throughout. Visually appealing and well edited the movie has plenty of momentum and atmosphere, intertwining smoothly the investigations and pursuits of the mixed age detectives with the e-sport competition of the younger gaming addicts. It's pleasant to see that all characters and subplots are well developed, and that the plot remains believable, thanks to good acting and thorough research of the gamers habits. It's very entertaining to watch.
