Pete C @Pete1 10h I enjoyed the acting, though the plot/writing felt a little haphazard. The various storylines did not come together very well at the end, I thought. Seems like there is a lot of potential here if they could tighten things with the writing. Didn't read the books, so not sure how it compares. Seems like it's worth a watch.

As a person who has read all Jø Nesbø's books about Harry Hole and who deeply cherishes this crime universe, I absolutely recommend watching this series. The cast is brilliant, even despite being not quite accurate in some cases. Nesbø's signature dynamics of storytelling feels the same as in his books. And the music was like an icing on a cake! However what I personally found a bit annoying was the color scheme, which is way too colorful and bright. Anyway, watching this TV show gave me full immersion, exactly the one I always experienced while reading Jø Nesbø's books. Looking forward to further screen adaptations of other books, especially "The Redeemer" and "The Snowman"! You nailed it, guys!

Not only does the series nail the whole Hole (see what I did there...) feeling, but the way it's shot, the music, the pace, the atmosphere... everything was spot on. Tobias Santelmann as Harry Hole really got the character and Joel Kinnaman's Tom Waaler was deliciously evil and nasty. Point of note, the music (choices, useage etc) are very reminiscent of the same in Peaky Blinders. Cant wait for the next series !!!

The faults of Hole are plausible. I don’t think I could perform his job without something to get me through the day. It’s grim and gritty and provides enough details to try to solve the case. I pride myself in figuring out the key players early and Valaar was on my radar from the beginning. I also liked the way Hole and his future step son came together. I hope there are more shows.

Can be watched at 1.5x speed, skipping entire sections - especially those where the grumpy, alcoholic cowboy cop once again drowns in misery - and still nothing missed. See more Read all reviews
