Before We Die

It is a series you keep watching. But it is full of plotholes.

Slightly disturbed female cops are the thing in thrillers these days. This is a nice series with interesting plot lines and good acting. It kept me hooked all the way along the first season so naturally I decided to continue with the second. This was a disappointment. Very far fetched plot twists, dead that come back alive, just too much to be credible. So enjoy season 1 and leave it at that.

There was a flow to this show that is hard to replicate and the bad reviews from some users boggles my mind. I'm not a fan of reading subtitles, but after watching this show, I've changed my mind. It was gripping from the first episode and I couldn't figure out all the twists and turns, which kept me very engaged through each. I'm the type who can't watch a show unless I get drawn in through a great plot and excellent acting... this contained every bit of that and more. The filming was top notch, and each actor (besides maybe one or two) played their roles flawlessly. There were a couple questionable moments (no spoilers) that kept me from giving this a 10 star review, but by the end, they sort of made sense. There is nothing worse than watching a show with a terrible ending... but fortunately this ending was well worth the wait. I am hoping season two will be as well written as the first and in that, I hope this show gets more views. American thrillers have been far less interesting then in previous years, so I will be looking for more shows like this in the Nordic Noir genre, which is purely based off of this show. If half of them produce anything close to what I just watched, I will be a fan for life.

I enjoyed watching this. The basic plot has been seen before but there was a freshness and some originally to this series. The acting and overall production is good. The script is well paced and in the last episode we learn something that refers us back to opening episode. A satisfying finale.

The second one get way too far fetched. writing is less focus. Even if in first one some progressions felt unreal, it is much worse in second. it is also true that season 1 dosent hold under scrutiny with the many plot holes but really, not much do in TV and movies. we are here for cheap escapism . The main inspector , she is also a terrible hypocrite and absurd mother. ahhhh, melodrama.
