It is not always easy to get audiences excited about new editions.

first season of “Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo”
: “It's a shame Amazon ... Why did you have to mess up such a good film about the series?
I'm already saying ... it's going to be a flop, "writes one user, for example.
Other commentators have the premonition that the series presents the subject of drugs too unproblematically: “That almost seems too happy to me.
Like a drug commercial.
I hope that is different in the final cut. ”In addition, many feel reminded of the 1990s classic
