Hamarinn

Does anyone know if there was a series three made? This is an excellent series and number two ended like there would be more.

I do love Nordic Crime series and Trapped is one of my favourites together with Katla from Iceland. Icelandic series have usually great landscape scenes. The Cliff has these kind of scenes as well. Nevertheless, one should not expect a great serie like Trapped from the Cliff. I am talking about the first season. I have not watched the second season which is called as the "Lava Field". The acting is alright but the story itself is very basic and it is not a huge mystery. There are some paranormal parts in the story. However, these parts looked like a bad copy of Bruce Willis' "The Sixth Sense" movie. For that reason, this serie is ok and it worths 6 points over 10.

Think "The Killing" substitute enverimentel issues for politics, add a touch of the supernatural, and you have "Hammarin", a 4 part drama from iceland. It all works very well. The acting is excellent.

The lead male detective is good in his role and in Season 1 he develops a good repour with the woman detective. In Season 2, he never develops a solid partnership with the woman detective. Season 2 also has some serious plot holes. My wife and I would give it a 7.2 if we could. We enjoyed it, but it isn't a top-notch series.

Is it murder or accident? Is it ball lightning? Or is it an supernatural phenomenon? Is the conflict metaphysical versus physical? supernatural versus natural? industrial versus environmental? Is the main plot man versus nature, man versus man, or man versus himself? Good grief. Can't decide what it wants to be. Can't even decide what height its cliff face is! Are the birds the same size as the humans? Where is the actual path up the side to the top? I watched it all...don't mind using subtitles...enjoyed seeing topography other than Southern California/Hollywood. Acting was acceptable, but overall, the direction seemed clumsy and the plot never coalesced sufficiently to reach a satisfying conclusion. Very disappointed.
