Midtsommernatt

The series starts off with a dramatic scene full of tension that sets the tone for the rest of the show.

It's full of plot twists, secrets and complexities we face as human beings in real life too.

All of this comes to light during the joyful festivities of Midsummer Night in the beautiful Norway.

You'll have some foreshadowing here and there that you'll pick up a hint or two that'll make you think, hmm that is probably linked to this or that and that makes you want to keep watching until you know it all.

Compelling stories, an even more interesting end with yet many questions left unanswered, hoping on a second season so we can see these characters their stories continued.

Because there is so much more to explore for these characters and their stories that were told in these 5 episodes.

... way all the storylines get tidied up nice and neatly at he ending is okay, if just a bit unrealistically-boring... it's well-done-acted-fun in Norway, just a bit more bite would have made it better

... one critic's review summing it pretty well.. "(were) this a longer show, there'd be time to understand the characters, find favorites, and support them in their finest glory, but with five episodes, there isn't really any emotional impact. Though the show does attempt to bring to the forefront the idiosyncrasies of each member present, it kind of leaves you a little bit unsatisfied. However, I will admit that the cast is fantastic, and each member brings nuanced performances and stands out individually. Still, it's a formulaic drama that has your betrayals, guilt, and misunderstandings to make it entertaining rather than feeling like you're watching a boring old family gathering."

... definitely worth a watch, just don't expect much from all the hectic-proceedings.

Being a big fan of all kinds of Scandi productions and Amalia Holm as well I really enjoyed episodes 1-4 of "Midsummer Night". But the last episode kind of ruined it for me because of the enforced harmony at the end. After all what happened that was far from believable.

The visuals of "Midsummer Night" are stunning, the cast in parts stellar, esp. Pernille August, Dennis Storhoi and said Amalia Holm, who certainly could have more played free with a stronger acting partner. All in all "Midsummer Night" is worth to watch, touching a lot of questions about what you really want to do with your life. Wish they had had more time to enfold the story instead of 30 minutes per episode.

I'd love to give them 10/10, but had to lower my rating because of the last episode.

I thought i was watching the horror movie midsommar it ain bad doe. It was suprised when I saw it was a series but I was js thinking "o shi i ain know midsommar was a series" den we was startin the third episode i was thinkin like where tf dem scary parts at, den i looked if it was rly the right midsommar but it wasnt. I was lwk tuned in doe so it ain bad. Well put together and great actin. I was suprised to when i saw the movie was in norish or whateva tf dey was speakin. Anyways it was confuzin but i fw it so it was a good show. The story was interesting and it kept me on the edge of my seat. But again i thought i was watchin a horror movie so dat prolly had a big roll in dat.

At first I felt provoked by some of the storyline and considered not continuing to watch it. But I am so glad I did. Felt my heart open in the end and a lot made sense, a clarity about the vision of the show, a beautifully crafted storyline that, as Scandinavian storytelling so often does, zooms in on the details of our life and relationships. Emotional intimacy, family care and real life is what you will meet in this series. It is not black and white, and precisely therefore does it open your heart to the people in the show and ultimately to the people in your own life. I really recommend this wholesome show.
