Hassel

Not sure what the others who related this 1 star....you know not a lot of bad shows really deserved one star...so when someone rated something one star, you want to question their ability to know what is good or bad. This how does not have lots of useless and fake actions like Rambo or movies by someone like Steven Segal, but just something realistic and good story and good acting...no flashy, high level of special movie effect...

Just a good plot, good acting, and good interesting story to follow from beginning to end...that is all I can ask for.

Only good thing about this is the music. Unrealistic, overdramatized and bad acting. Do not waste your time watching this. I gave i three stars for the effort and the music. The swedes are usually very good at making quality tv-shows.

I watched this only because Nicke Andersson made the music. The music is great and therefore it gets a higher rating.

I am a big fan of Nordic series!! America eat your heart out! ;) Hassel is not one of the great ones, but still very interesting and exciting. The worst .. the unnecesary, annoying and ridiculous fights during the relationships of some people (don't want to spoil it) and some lose ends. The music is great! And the rating is too low in my opinion.

(Sorry about the weird accent mark over 'e' in Hassėl, but IMDb does some automatic spelling and changes Hassėl to "Hassle" otherwise) If you're a fan of the "real" Roland Hassėl from early 90's, you'll get deeply disappointed.

Except for the name, this new "Hassėl" has NOTHING in common with the old series.

The personalities are not the same. They have just taken a few names, Hassėl, Ruda, Simon - but they have nothing in common with the old ones.

The stories do not have the same mood or manner. The story is over complicated, exaggerate, and giving a very distant perspective from reality - As opposed to the simple stories in the old Hassėl.

Recognizing Stockholm is not the same. In the old series, there were nice views of Stockholm, many places you could recognize. Here the camera is dizzy, they almost never show the surroundings without blurring the images.

If you have seen the old Hassėl and liked it, you will most likely get very disappointed if you see this. You'll get annoyed that they have stolen the name, but nothing from the feeling of the old Hassėl and nothing from the personalities.

If you haven't seen the old Hassėl, its also unlikely that you will like this series.

A piece if advise - just leave Hassėl 2017 unseen.
