The brilliant quality of lighting, camera and direction in the first 2 episodes slides into overly complex plotting, hacked editing, and character failures. The last episode is truly awful. I suppose the budget ran out, all spent early in the series. That hackneyed ending was infuriating and insulting, just to continue the Hirtman-Lecter into another season; a very cowardly producer, sadly.

Watch the first 2 episodes, then pretend a good ending, and drop it. Or, get your teeth-pulling pliers out.

Ugh. What a waste of potential.

This series depicted spectacular winter scenery. I was also impressed with the quality of the actors, especially those who played the roles of Martin and Julian. However, the plot was overly complicated; there were too many strands that were not really connected to the plot and were not resolved satisfactorily. In addition, I was very disappointed with the ending - unless, they are planning a second season.

This French series in set in the Pyrenees Mountains; and opens with a strange case involving the killing and decapitation of a valuable horse. Captain Martin Servaz is put in charge of the case. The only clue is a hair found on the horse's head. There is a DNA match. This only raises more questions than answers as it came from Julian Alois Hirtmann, a man who is an inmate at a secure psychiatric facility... a man who Martin sent there for murdering a number of women. In the facility a young, woman doctor is keen to work with Hirtmann. Inevitably it isn't long before the first human victim is found. As the death toll rises Martin, and his partner, Irène Ziegler, work to link the victims to each other and to Hirtmann.

I found this to be a solid and enjoyably mystery. Many questions are posed and these are gradually answered as the series progresses. As seems common in these relatively short French mystery series it is set in a fairly remote, scenic corner of the country; the fact that it takes place in winter adds to the atmosphere. There is a good sense of tension and a few fairly shocking scenes, especially towards the end. The actual finale is perhaps a little predictable and appears to set things up for a second season although it looks like that won't happen given that it is a few years since this was made. The cast does a solid job bringing their characters to life. Overall a solid story despite a few clichés, I'd recommend it to fans of French crime dramas.

These comments are based on watching the series in French with English subtitles.

I didn't feel too invested in these characters, they lacked depth and motivation. The lead investigators had no chemistry and the master manipulating bad guy didn't feel wicked enough. The storylines were well developed and the cinematography beautifully dark.

We've got a series with a good plot, but (too many) weak sub plots. The acting is good overall, but weakened by the sub plots and the constant tissues in Servaz hand.

The filming, environment and atmosphere are above average. By the way, where are the French cars? What's with the Subaro and Volvo?! Not credible.

They thought they would get a second season, that never happened, hence the illogical behaviors in the finale and the bad ending!

The cinematography is beautiful. I thought that they did an excellent job in casting. There is a lot of interwoven symbolism throughout the series that held my interest. I would highly recommend it for anyone that enjoys a good psychological crime thriller.

Gorgeous scenery, excellent acting, predictable storyline, REAL BEAT-UP ending but if you binge-watch (only 6 episodes( it's engaging enough. Have CERTAINLY seen worse!!😎

A very slow build to an earth-shatteringly predictable ending.

I like slow-burners, and I don't need car chases and explosions. Mindhunter has been my favourite series recently. But this was just too cliched to engage me. I dragged myself to the end just because there were only 6 episodes, and still felt I'd wasted my time.

It's got nice scenery, camera work, and it's quite well acted, but that's not enough to overcome the tedium.

There'll be a series 2, but will i watch it? Mais non, monsieur.

It wasn't perfect, and suffers from an overly complicated story line with way too many cliches, but overall, it was a good show. The acting is rather good, in my opinion. The guy that plays the Hannibal Lecter-esque bad guy Julian Hirtmann is excellent.

I enjoyed it, even if it was a bit corny in some spots.

This series was one of the worst series I have seen in years. No need to even mention any spoiler to tell you how terrible this series is:

If the detective had died in a car accident at the beginning of the story, nothing in the story would have changed, but there would be far less damage to innocent people and far less achievement for the BAD GUY at the end.

The hero basically is one of the dumbest characters ever written in any work of fiction, and in a very boring way, with zero physical or mental intelligence. When you finish the show either you are a psychopath, have been identifying yourself with the bad guy and you would be pleased or if you are a normal person, the utter hopelessness of the hero that you have been tolerating throughout the series overwhelmingly crushes you at the end.

Don't waste your time.

It wasn't very original, but I was focused enough to watch it in one evening. it is solid 6.5. Yes, the story is a bit cliché but it is still interesting and entertaining enough, actually much better than other British (Happy valley as an example) and Canadian (Bellevue), where I almost fall asleep.

It is a good average police thriller, however it moves slow. The real action takes places at the final chapters. Besides, you must be totally focused on the plot or your will get easily lost.

Watched dubbed version which was very poor. Overly complicated plot for no good reason. Either that or it's so boring you can't be bothered to follow it. Some nice scenery. Average acting. Zero tension.l

Great show. Looks like there won't be a second season.

I found the storyline well invented and twisted. I did not appreciate the ending because... well it really wasn't an ending at all. I also found the film to reference to a previous crime so often that one would think there would be at least flashbacks provided for the viewer to imagine. I actually googled to see if this was a second film and perhaps I had missed the first one. But this is the entire tale. It's a good watch and good mystery. Just missing a few details.

Superb plot, stunning scenery, good acting..... much better than your average "troubled detective / cop / inspector / whoever" script. The is one of the best Netflix originals we have ever seen.... bravo !!

This isn't in the class of detective thrillers that "shouldn't be missed" but I found it to be engaging and a perfectly fine way to spend 6 hours!

My wife and I liked the first couple of episodes, but the last four were incredible slow-moving. Every detective series has to mix pure detective work with some personal background. The characters in this series have way too much personal baggage, which isn't very interesting. We were glad when it ended.

I thought this was a decent tv series. Interesting storyline that had the right amount of twists & turns, without becoming over complicated.

The characters were well written, enough personal elements to allow you to connect with then a little. Not so much to at it takes over the investigation storyline, which is so often the case in these series.

6 episodes mean it's easily watchable in a day or two. We watched it over two evenings, and we enjoyed them.

I watched this on netflix,The trailer is in english but every episode is in french,(I knew this was a French production, just confused by the trailer.) maybe that was the better option. The story starts 10 years after the original manhunt and successful capture of a serial killer who is at this point in time is in a psychiatric unit without hope of ever being released. After a grizzly discovery the detective who caught the serial killer is asked to join the new investigation and so starts this story. It's pretty good, but can get annoying like missing obvious suspects and clues that could be connected to the case at hand, which at times can become tedious and drawn out to get the point across to viewers. Most of the characters go through wimpy scenes with overplayed emotions that just get in the way, especially when reading subtitles that vanish in a blink of the eye in certain areas, so you miss a sentence as they last less than a second. As is the norm these days, the main protagonist has his personal demons and only functions using a full flask of alcohol and unlimited smokes including extreme nose bleeds from tension. The last episode is basically a race against time bringing the season to a full circle leaving an opening for a season 2.

Netflix may be making lots of rubbish for the English speaking subscribers but the lucky foreigners actually ARE getting their money's worth.

'Glacé' is a slow moving and ponderous mystery with many strands to keep track of. Unfortunately they don't all tie up neatly at the end, so I suppose a second series is on the way.

Everyone is up to something and they all have secrets... and there's lots and lots of snow.

Thoroughly enjoyable six episodes.
