Critic Reviews for A Conspiracy of Faith

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (6)

Set in Scandinavia and featuring a sullen male protagonist, it's violent, hard-boiled, and psychologically disturbing. Its antihero, a clench-jawed police detective, also embodies a belief that individual goodness might be enough to prevail.

Chicago Reader
"A Conspiracy of Faith" marks the darkest and most gripping screen adaptation of the Jussi Adler-Olsen novels to date.

Sure, you could point out a few shortcomings here and there. But those sins are easy to overlook.

Ken Jaworowski
New York Times
Although each of the first three films tells a full, discrete story, they work best cumulatively, as the ongoing adventures of one cranky, conscientious cop.

Bleak in its kidnapping contents but bright in its images.

Denmark's smash-hit Nordic noir series Department Q arrives in the US... and this third chapter is menacing, creepy, and morbidly engaging.
