She Said Maybe Debuts at No. 1 on Netflix Germany as Reactions Split

Early scores hover around 5/10 on IMDb, reflecting complaints about superficiality.

Overview

  • The German–Turkish romantic comedy reached the top spot on Netflix’s film chart in Germany immediately after release.
  • Audience and critic reactions are sharply divided, with low user ratings on IMDb and negative comments also surfacing on Rotten Tomatoes and social media.
  • Reviews argue the film sidesteps cultural and identity themes in favor of glossy luxury imagery and postcard scenes of Istanbul and Cappadocia.
  • Fans of influencer Caro Daur express disappointment over her limited screen time despite pre-release promotion of her appearance.
  • Some viewers praise the cast’s chemistry and the cinematography, while cast interviews detail a one‑take cake‑fall gag and a weather‑dependent hot‑air‑balloon shoot that was partly recreated in a studio.
