Avis à la une
Two episodes into season #2 I was fast forwarding constantly because I found it dragging horribly ... but was curious about the outcome. Sometimes it's hard to look away from a car crash as they say ...and season #2 was certainly that. Awfully cliched characters and some pretty hard to believe police procedural work.
I've wanted to watch this for a while since I'm a fan of Lars Mikklesen's work and love European crime dramas, and have travelled extensively in Belgium and Germany. The first season has a great plot, fascinating characters, believable plotline (to the degree its possible) and is very enjoyable. The second has some great actors (totally different teams, no story overlap) and some compelling elements but the story is ultimately filled with problematic and questionable decisions which, without revealing too much, leaves it far less of a satisfying watch despite some great dramatic scenes. Watch the first one it's a gripping story in many ways, but think twice about the second. I'd rate the first one 7/10 and the second 5/10. It's still watchable but there are too many moments of "why didn't they...?" to make it a truly believable scenario. I suspect the relative "failure" of the second season would've been why they chose not to continue with this interesting joint venture between the group of Danish, German, Belgian (and Austrian) collaborators on this project.
Ok, don't take the plot too seriously but overall it is better than anything the UK is turning out these days.
If you like Scandi drama, then you should like this.
For decades, following the fall of Iron Curtain and fast development of technology, felonies and combating them have become more international as well, money laundry and human trafficking included. Thus, on one hand, it is interesting to follow diverse beautiful places and characters of different nationalities performed by respective actors speaking respective languages, but when the series of eight 1-hour episodes deals with one "enemy", then the plot becomes perfunctory and the role of leading characters unbalanced, with some obtaining too much unnecessary attention and the others' characteristics remain unfinished, with several questions unanswered.
The police characters are obviously realistic, but often not too interesting to follow, and even Lars Mikkelsen is unable to show his talent in full. Plus it is odd that Alexandra Rapaport had so insignificant character. And Jasmin Gerat as Jackie Müller and Veerle Baetens as Alicia Verbeeck provided just okay, but not memorable performance, and those depicting Lithuanians were not particularly catchy, somehow underlining the role of Eastern European villains. Plus, of course, Belgium as a symbol of negligence and corruption...
All in all, not a bad creation, but not on the level of e.g. The Eagle: A Crime Odyssey ("Ørnen: En krimi-odyssé).

OK, it isn't Borgen, The Killing or The Bridge, nor even as good as Salamander. I had pretty high expectations and it just about met them despite considerable adversity: 1. the program had Danish subtitles which is of no use to me 2. the main languages employed are Danish, Flemish and German - none of which I understand. There is a bit of French but I only get a bit of that. Some Lithuanian 3. when the Team (detectives from Denmark, Belgium and Germany) and also the bad guys speak to each they often have to use English - Hurrah! 4. my wife was able to interpret most of the German dialogue with a lot of rewinding. Under such circumstances we nearly gave up on this but we persevered and am glad we did so. If you think you can cope with that then give it a go. It has a reasonably good plot with one or two unnecessary red-herrings. It is pretty good in my opinion!
