Fred til lands

The benchmark is catchy and the reasons-why are well depicted from the beginning, but then the pace somewhat slackens and the number of by-lines and characters becomes to large, without providing any additional value to the course of events (e.g. As to Milad). But there are interesting twists and turns, the viewers can ponder on and over different ideas, and the very final scenes might hint that Season 2 will come as well.

But the performances are good (I like Lene Maria Christensen as Bibi and Morten Hee Andersen as Mike most) and unlike in most Danish series, it includes actors not constantly visible in thriller series.

Fred til lands is more than okay if you are familiar with Danish society and thinking, but I can hardly envisage any wider breakthrough here, even in e.g. Most parts of Europe.

And last but not least - the title. Both in Danish and English, it is confusing and uninviting.

Where did they get that Kasper actor 🤔 Some of the acting is poor. But idea is good I am on episode 5 hanging in to see what happens. There are better world dramas out there and I have watched quite a few so I rate this Average.

The "Mike" character is so awful, the audience quickly finds themselves rooting for murder? What does that say about us?! The only problem I have with this series is that none of the characters is likable. They are all either weak or bad people.

I really like the concept with a town bully that people are feed up with, and I'm a sucker for Danish movies and TV shows. But for some reason I never really fell in love with this. The middle episodes where kind of slow and no really likeable characters. Plus point for some twists.

Really gets you thinking! I was hooked after the first episode! Another great Danish show. The only annoying thing is the fact that Bibi seems to be modelling herself in the mum from the Brady Bunch!
