But when he starts the car, his phone rings: The strange caller tells him there’s a bomb under his seat which will blow up if Karl or the kids try and get out. He demands Karl come up with a large sum of money very quickly. When his wife starts to suspect him of kidnapping the children, the cops come after Karl too, including explosives expert Pia. A deadly race against time begins: At the mercy of the bomb and pursued by the police, Karl desperately tries to save his kids and himself. (Berlinale)

If I said that I didn’t mind that at times the story lacked any logic, I’d be lying. But in the context of the entire movie, I must say that it’s been a while I saw an action flick as fast-paced as the Germans showed here. It was an adrenaline ride with everything it entails, which made me feel properly anxious.
