Approximately 10 years have the Nordic nations, beginning from the Danes, gladdened us with versatile, distinct and intertwining crime thrillers. One might think that all has been said and done, nothing could surprise anymore, but still, from time to time, fresh stories with new angles and approaches come out.

Norskov is a good example of the latter in several aspects. First, the cast is different from many other series (sometimes it seems this 5.7 million nation has a couple of dozens major film actors only, all talented though); here, is spite of being an eager follower, the majority of performers were unknown to me, I could recall 2-3 from a few films or series). But they all did well and I would like to retain many them in my thoughts (e.g. Thomas Levin, Claus Riis Østergaard) while watching Danish thrillers in the future.

Second, lots of scenes around ice-hockey, which is not a major sports in Denmark (vis-à-vis Sweden and Finland).

But all the rest is a pleasant get-together with a pleasant Danish thriller - calm pace/events/performers (even in the police), multifaceted relations, environment (here: urban) and music in assisting to create the mood/background, etc. Perhaps some events and ties were revealed too soon, but still, the suspense was maintained and a "genealogy twist" in the very ending rounded the 10 episodes up in a satisfying manner. Another success in the Danish series market!

I am now into episode 5, and enjoying this series very much. Checking with catch up t v I noted this series, episode 1. The day was wet and windy, so I checked this unknown series out, so am binge watching big time !! So far it is highly enjoyable, with it's simple to understand script yet the story has its complexities, which add suspense , and keeps you hooked. Fine acting, good visuals, and an excellent soundtrack, makes this a great watch. Just about every Walter presents series I have seen, is darned good, and this one is keeping up the trend.

I agree with all those who find Scandinavian films to be among the best, and this film is no exception. Outstanding character and plot development, as well as superb acting. It's disappointing that we aren't able to view season two.
