criticism
Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv said quite appreciatively: “'Helen Dorn - Until the Stop' is a fast-paced, gripping crime thriller from the first to the last minute, which relies on the additional knowledge of the audience and the antagonist. Thanks to the enormous presence of Joachim Król as the angel of vengeance, as well as the high level of action on the part of the investigators and the tense exceptional situation, the film by Markus Imboden wins its class. "
Kester Schlenz writes for the star : “'Until the stop' is simply one of the best TV thrillers in recent months. Why? Because this third adventure of the silent inspector is damn exciting, because the actors are excellent and because the plot is believable in a pleasantly unpretentious way and comes without unnecessary antics. We don't see the police stumbling around mumbling and mumbling phrases, but we see them investigating and doing their job. And that is fascinating because it gives the whole thing a gripping realism that draws us into the story and lets us participate breathlessly in what is happening. "
