Nutzerkritik Necrotongue zur diesen Serie (7)

Catch 22 (2019) 

Englisch I'm usually apprehensive about movies and series based on my favorite books, but this one was a nice surprise. Although the creators obviously didn’t follow the original to the letter, I didn't mind because I got a very well-filmed anti-war series with decent acting performances and a great combination of humor and drama. So, instead of the expected disappointment, I had a great time. ()

Episode 1 (2019) (E01) 

Englisch Having read the book ages ago and watched the movie shortly after, I had my doubts about this series. But after diving into the pilot episode, I have to say, it held its own quite well. The depiction of bureaucracy as the same kind of menace in both peace and war hit home — it's a whole different kind of danger. The fall without permission and its consequences were priceless. The dialogue was simply hilarious. ()

Episode 2 (2019) (E02) 

Englisch The somber mood was palpable throughout, but the creators cleverly sprinkled in humor to lighten the load. The promotion of Sergeant Major Major Major Major to Major Major Major Major perfectly captured the absurdity of military bureaucracy. ()

Episode 3 (2019) (E03) 

Englisch The humor took a back seat as the creators opted for a more serious tone, and I must say, it paid off. While I can definitely relate to the absurdity of war and the frustration of mindless orders, I found myself losing some sympathy for Yossarian. The thought of having someone like him watching my back in a critical situation is a bit unsettling, to say the least. ()

Episode 4 (2019) (E04) 

Englisch In this episode, the creators turned up the humor dial, and it was a blast. Mila's business trips across Europe and Africa were executed flawlessly, and I also enjoyed Yossarian's "overtime". But amidst the laughs, the episode didn't skimp on the serious moments, striking a perfect balance. ()

Episode 5 (2019) (E05) 

Englisch The fifth episode was a standout for me. The debate about suitable punishment had me hooked from the start, and the nighttime raid by German bombers over the "green zone" was spot on. Plus, the introduction of General Scheisskopf hints at even more absurdity to come, and I'm here for it. ()

Episode 6 (2019) (E06) 

Englisch The series wrapped up with a solid finale in the last episode. They balanced humor with drama and a touch of depressing atmosphere just right. The tone kept shifting, mixing moments of cheerfulness with seriousness seamlessly, and overall, it left a really good impression on me. ()
