Tormenta de Navidad

I haven't watched a single Norwegian (actually Scandinavian) movie badly played, and this is a recommendation already. The intertwined stories reminds of Love Actually, despite it's not so funny, not so dense, and touches tougher problems. I enjoyed the sincerity and the themes approached, the script, basically everything. Even if some reviewers will complain about stereotype of some stories, each and every one of them has new angles, and in general candid ones. There is nothing really ugly in any of them, and this is what makes it a good/great Christmas story (or stories). Obviously I recommend it.

At first I was really confused because there are a lot of very different characters, but after a couple of episodes you get a pretty good grasp of who they are. All the actors are doing a good job portraying their character, and makes the story decently believable.

It was a wonderful idea to have different nationalities a part of this show, I feel most of the time it works what seems effortlessly.

The soundtrack and mood is great in every episode, and you feel you get closer and closer to a happy ending for all.

There are some very weird dialogues here and there, and things I can't imagine anyone would say... One character swaps very cringey between languages for apparently no reason, and others just have truly odd lines. I also feel there is a character who got totally forgotten about which left me wondering why we didn't get to see their happy ending... But all in all, decent christmas show and worth a watch.

It was a series that caught my attention because I love airports. Also, it was excellent to combine the unrelated topics covered. There are lessons for everyone to learn. We see the concept of human psychology and destiny filmed in a sense. The players performed well according to their positions. It was a series that could be watched as a family and made inferences. Touched by real life, it was a series that showed how negativities in the family affect children and their separation from the family. It was an indication of how people who learned from the mistakes of the past use it as their only leverage in the future and that miracles can always happen.

A heart warming, slow burning and beautiful mini series about what is important in life. We follow quite a couple of different people and storylines throughout a 24 hour period, who is stuck in Oslo airport because of a snowstorm, the 23'th and 24'th of December. All of our characters experience some kind of heartache together with challenges, that leads to insight, growth and redemption. And the stories intertwine perfectly with one another. I love the "low key" nordic atmosphere and humor of it all. It is relatable and authentic. And also the mix of Norwegian, Swedish and Danish characters. Norway is doing so good with these Netflix shows, and I can't wait to see what will come next.

I loved this series! Great script and outstanding performances by the actors. The carachters are so relateable. One message is that Christmas spirit is different for alle of us. We should stop what we're doing once in a while and acknowledge that we have no clue what other people are going through.

This series brings out every feeling you've got! Tears, laughter and manu touching moments.

There are too many series/movies about Christmas out there. Most of them are garbage compared to this one. Read the subtitles, it's not the same with dubbing. I'm Norwegian so I'm probably not objective, but I see other reviews are as positive as mine.
