Reviews
“In Unterleuten, women are by far the smarter, but by no means the better characters. On the contrary. This is already the case with Juli Zeh, and Geschonnek adheres to it in his film adaptation, which is difficult to realistically grounded in the Brandenburg sand and told along the lines of the text, which one had actually imagined to be more comical, grotesque [...]. The three-parter has the look of a Spreewald thriller with a tendency to village western or better: Eastern. "
“[As] so often with Juli Zeh, in 'Unterleuten', too, great social ambition, rather modest linguistic means and no sense of humor come together. […] [T] he multi-part unraveling the confused plot threads of the book is not bad at all. One or the other of the actors [...] is allowed to suggest [his slight East German language coloring] [...]. Particularly in-depth knowledge about town and country, east and west should be looked for somewhere else, but 'Unterleuten' always provides good entertainment for a TV evening. "
