John Doyle Globe and Mail 01/29/2020
What transpires is a terse thriller, as Wisting's daughter becomes a target - that is somewhat predictable, but what shifts the narrative after several episodes is not predictable. Go to Full Review Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal 01/06/2020
In this 10-part series, every episode lives. No small achievement. Go to Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) 01/06/2020

S T. @RT43334155 May 27 Good show with 1 exception. Certain black actors with afro hairstyle. The hairstyle looks like a commercial. See more Dave C @RT09838700 12/18/2024 Tense, thrilling, and typically Nordic in tone, setting, and tempo. It should have been two seasons, without doubt (1-5; 6-10), as there are two distinct stories - one concluding in Ep5 and one starting in Ep6. I found I struggled with Line's stupidity and the predictability of her behaviour and actions, but in general I did enjoy the series, and the characters See more bear h @Rsvp999 11/26/2022 I so wanted to love this. Season one only. The cinematography, direction and cast were exceptional. The story, though, was full of coincidences. The next door neighbor with a direct tie to the murders? The daughter who just happens to write a story about him? Annoying family drama about immature young adults who still don't have a clue what their papa has to deal with on the job. I expected so much more sophistication in the writing to match the production. See more Read all reviews
