If you enjoy a slow burn that needs concentration and thought that's just the start. Excellent character building from great actors. Well put together and a story that is a little different from some of the predictable out there. In the UK its on the Channel 4 Walter Presents and with respect he very rarely recommends a duffer. I enjoyed it very much and the actors who play the two brothers, have been chosen so well. Quite brutal at times but so is life. Don't believe the negatives they are obviously those who can't think, don't like to think and those who prefer predictable mind numbing offerings.

Overall an "okay' show. I love to visit Denmark and have studied a little Danish so every 'dansk tv-serier' is on my radar.

This show has great potential. But somehow it didn't work for me.

It is extremely slow. It contains of 8 episodes but they could have filmed it in 4 or 5.

I saw all eight episodes in two nights. It was exciting, good and well put together. It kept me away from my mobile phone for all eight episodes. That is a clear sign of quality, for me. The actors did a superb job and I think it's very cool that the two brothers are actually brothers in real life too. It had good bad guys, got me convinced all the way. The kinda shady crooks we all know are out there.

The director did a superb job here too. I felt this show and it got me wanting to see more! I just need more. I love finding shows like this, playing the first episode and going "yeess, this is awesome" inside of my head. Being a former crook myself at a young age, doing time in different jails, I found the jail part VERY exciting in this.

My final thoughts: You get what is promised here. Bravo to all involved. And thank you for making my two nights in this corona time exciting and for giving me a break from my own problems in life. 9/10

The storyline was well conceived and there were plenty of twists and turns, particularly for the protagonist, Adam. The characters were all believable, although I thought Tommy's wife would have been much harder.

But... there were two many long close up shots and slow panning shots that added nothing to the plot and just made the pace of the story falter. There were also a lot of pregnant pauses and nearly every character had a problem answering simple questions, which was very frustrating. The screenplay therefore also meant the story kept losing pace and at times was boring.

A shaper script and less prolonged shots would be a must for a second series.

I've watched dozens of similar style series on Walter Presents, Netflix etc so think I generally have a good idea of what to expect and find it easy to follow the plot, but I have to say that after a really promising first 4 episodes this series loses its way through episodes 5-8 with the ending being frankly incomprehensible to me.

A shame really, but perhaps the lack of a clear ending is down to the fact that they may be planning a second series.

Have to agree with an earlier comment which said that the main character (the trader brother, not the cop brother) makes some very stupid decisions throughout.

Lars Mikkelsson's character was underused as well.
