Avis à la une
An interesting premise that is perhaps not that far removed from real life. Mostly english language, it even has some Americans in the otherwise finnish cast.
The first few episodes do a good job of building a sense of confusion on the ground and in senior government circles. The conclusion however is a bit of an anti-climax.
Only has a small cast, the Finnish landscape is gorgeous, photography is good, the acting is pretty limited, I imagine it was made on a small budget and seemed to rely on stock footage for things like warships, aircraft were mostly absent. Overall, it feels more like a documentary than a drama.

As a special forces soldier, I find the series excellent. Aki is the Man. The criticism has been so inferior that this becomes a success. Few dare to present characters as stereotypes. A traditional officer is a traditional officer. Now there are also those women. Today there are women in the army. You'd think it would do. And there are also immigrants. You'd think that would do too. Fortunately, the audience decides. I'm sure the Defense Forces have been happy to help. Critics criticize and soldiers fight. That's the difference. Congratulations Finland 107 years! This is a good reminder to be ready. Not with a keyboard but with a gun.

Got me hooked from the first episode! Surreal to watch coming from a Finnish perspective. Really makes you think about the turbulent world we live in nowadays and what you appreciate the most in your day to day life.
Loved the inside jokes, that open especially to the Finnish population and people familiar with the Finnish society and system. Also great way to learn something about Finnish security for the viewers new to Finland.
Lots of Finnish military technology on show, which makes the series every mil-tech geeks daydream! The Defense forces presence in training the cast shows as well put together action in the excercise and action scenes.

Aku Louhimies offers well-written TV-entertainment. The realism surprises - these are the threat images that Finland has been preparing for for years. The Ukrainian crisis made this more real. Every Finnish reservist will surely recognize the series' attempt to respect realism. The story is written from the perspective of a Finnish soldier. It's delightful. This is not traditional American war imagery, but offers a view of how Europe wants to deal with these issues. Definitely worth of watching!
Although the characters are a bit stereotypical, their actions are enjoyable to watch. At the time of writing this review, the series has progressed to its fifth episode. The battle scenes have already become more intense. Hopefully, the sixth episode will maintain this intensity. I believe that a fairly large budget has been spent on the series. It is reflected in the production in a good way. A lot of defense forces equipment has been included and even Swedish Gripen fighters.
It would be really nice if the series also gained international exposure. I believe that Finland's position on the world map - on Russia's neighbor - makes this series great to watch all over the world.

Seen one episode in but it already feels just like an unbelievable commercial for the Finnish defence forces. Unnecessary sex scene, wannabe edgy president that you can't take seriously after her first scene and so much of unimportant idling makes me think that is there even a story behind all of this.
At least it looks quite good. The military equipment provided by the Finnish defence forces are authentic which gives some realness to this lame and stoic story. Peter Franzén is the standout as the other main lead in the series and gives a good performance as a Finnish military staff member. Hopefully the rest of the series will be better.
Update:
Quite surprised by the later episodes (4 and 5) the tension is really there and all the corny, cringe and boring scenes are gone. It's not a perfect show by any means but much better than the start.
