In “Tatort: Max Ballauf focus for the audience?
– 2024-04-29 18:43:55″>This time it’s different” Ballauf and Schenk have to solve the murder of a celebrity blackmailer. This is what the audience can expect.
The Cologne investigators Max Ballauf (Klaus J. Behrendt) and Freddy Schenk (Dietmar Bär) are put to a tough test in “Tatort: This time it’s different”. Love is to blame. The “Tatort” runs on Sunday at 8:15 p.m. on the first.
The unemployed Peer Schwarz is run over by a car under a bridge. In his luxuriously furnished apartment, chief inspectors Ballauf and Schenk not only find large amounts of cash, but also documents that point to the systematic blackmail of celebrities. Schwarz found incriminating material in his blackmail victims’ social media pasts.
So did he have to die at the hands of one of these prominent figures? A trail leads Ballauf and Schenk to a popular former pop singer: Mariella Rosanelli (Leslie Malton) now runs a youth center for people who have had to experience a lot of bad things in their young lives.
During the investigation, a conflict arises between Ballauf and Schenk. Freddy accuses Max of not really paying attention. That’s true, because his thoughts are constantly with his new love Nicola Koch, the editor of the city magazine “Cologne Alive”. But then it seems as if there is a connection between his private happiness and the current case…
Is it worth turning on?
Yes, yes. Freddy Schenk alias Dietmar Bär and all other colleagues in the Cologne homicide department deliver as usual. Things are a little different this time for Max Ballauf, alias Klaus J. Behrendt, because he has been hit so deeply in the heart by Cupid’s arrow that he can hardly concentrate on his work anymore. Unfortunately, you can’t really buy it from him. Also because the external and sometimes strange internal dialogues between him and his girlfriend are quite top-heavy.
Apart from this painful excursion into an amour fou, which several other “crime scene” detectives had to go through before Ballauf – and which rarely seemed contrived – the crime thriller is very good. The story is interesting, the danger of “the internet forgets nothing” is realistic and so is the threat of the public overreacting.
