The approach is really something: the subdivision of episodes, the wrongdoer is almost maintained until the very end (which could have been more sophisticated, though), catchy twists and turns (well, sometimes at the expense of realism as Denmark is among the least corrupted countries in the world), the inclusion of 5 of Top10 contemporary Danish actors (Thomsen, Dencik, Mikkelsen, Lie Kaas, Dyrholm)... Really nice - and intensive, following the real traditions of Nordic and British Noir.

Perhaps not as meaty as e.g. Bron/Broen, but close. And another good opportunity for Ulrich Thomsen to show his greatness and versatility.

Some parts are great. Acting is great. Cinematography is great. A little repetitive in scene structure. As per usual with Mr. Boe, I'm slightly bewildered at the end. A need a little more.

I am writing this at the end of series 2 (assuming a third series won't be necessary).

The show never has any pace, little in the way of action and long drawn out conversations that could be cut to a couple of minutes.

The first season isn't too bad but series 2 which I am sure was filmed with great difficulty during lockdown (watch the man and woman leave the train wearing facemasks at the end of s2e7) is quite poor.

I have just list around 8 hours of my life plodding through this after hearing that Eagle Eye drama is making an English version (the scene at a petrol station was filmed during a fuel crisis).

After seeing English versions as well as the excellent originals of Professor T and Before We Die, I wanted to see if this was top quality too Unfortunately, I was let down. The Danes didn't bring home the bacon.

Like the dodgy series 3 of Professor T, series 2 of this was hard to find - and for good reason.

The show seems to nowhere but you watch, disappointedly, in hope.

Hopefully James Nesbit and Niamh Algar (among others) can bring some life to English incarnation.

Really wonderful how this story is told in short episodes with few actors on one spot. Excellent acting en film making!

Should have been a movie, but Mr. Boe is always up for good acting and a great story. A great crime story, but would have been better as a movie with good action points.

Great acting. Great schript. Great story. Best drama/crime/thriller series i've watched in a long time!

Should have been a Movie, but Mr. Boe is always up for good acting and a great performance. By actors like Lie Kass, Lars Mikkelsen and so on.

Great show - amazing acting.. Watched the whole season in one evening.. You will not be disappointed.

I am surely missing the point or the cultural savviness, but this is a completely unrealistic scenario, with repetitive 'interrogations' of people giving titbits of info, and daddy overplaying his part. We were looking forward to this series but got quickly bored.

Very good danish crime movie with some of the best danish actors

When I'm writing this review, only 13 people have gone me before. Admittely, I also had not discovered this gem till recently (someone mentioned it in another series' review). The less you know, the better, but I highly recommend viewing it. Good pace, outstanding acting performances, only 20~30 minutes per episode, great dialogues. (If you really don't wanna know anything, stop here). The style keeps between a movie and a theatre act. Limitation of space and locations, but that in turn puts each and every confrontation between the protagonists under a marvelous spotlight. In regular movies, you have 2 or 3 of these, with lots of filling in between. Here you have 8 in a row! Everything is cut to the bare minimum, with all emphasis on the dialogues. Why 9 and not 10? Cause there are some flaws, nothing that spoils the ride, but nevertheless, without them it would be a 10. (e.g. Putting the gun on the ground ? The rigor mortis had not yet affected the whole body till the last scene in the morgue?)

With some episodes around 25 mins it was still a hard watch. Characters took turns in dialogue whereas in the real life a couple of questions and an answer would have solved the problem. I can't recall the first season being as painful to watch. I can't recommend this show, there's so many better options.

If you're a dad with a young daughter with whom your relationship is fraught with challenges, this series is compelling viewing.

This is probably one of the top overrated directors in danish films history. This man is just in love with himself and his own imagined genius.

All his stuff like this crap is over the top and usually extremely boring.

Only Kid Bodnia and Paprika Steen missing.. Great Danish drama, pure and raw.

Very good with fine acting as always Ulrich Thomsen

The scenes are very long and elongated. Not much happens, it's mostly just 2 people talking for 25 minutes straight. However, the acting and the script are really good.

It is refreshing when something doesn't follow the norm, but it has to work.

This is an attempt to present a police enquiry in a different way, but it ends up being too fragmented due to essentially focusing on the main character with a different character in each episode. And the main character isn't exactly a barrel of laughs!

It goes around in circles and in the the end was the beginning, so to speak.

Unrealistic characters making brainless decisions and constantly showing how inefficient, slow and corrupted are Denmark policeman. I didn't feel aesthetic or artistic touch here. Just plain boredom and violence towards female characters.

The father was such a descipable character you really had no sympathy for him or his quest. Too bad, had potential, but missed the mark. Great cast, but couldn't carry the baggage from the lead character.

This series starts off by wasting the entire first episode on the quarrel between the Pathologist and the Police/father. The dialog is boring and repetitive, and the premise is just, well, stupid! It has the usual Danish lineup of actors who appear to be like a traveling theater group that goes from series to series. The pace is so slow that it fails to engage viewers. There are these long, drawn out conversations that are fairly common in Danish series, just a lot of words that could easily have been condensed down to more precise dialog. Really needed a faster pace to move the story along so that viewers do not become bored and stop watching!
