Furia

As a non-european, I have enjoyed the show. I have not judged the actors or director or any of the crew for this show.

No complains. Excellent show. Cinematography is very good.

The plot of radical right-wing groups is unusual and that got me hooked for this show. Even if Americans try to remake this show, it wont be as good as this original series.

WATCH IT !

Didn't feel something exciting started to happen until episode 4-5.

The story was well built and with good scenery.

As a Norwegian the chosen actors was kind of a disappointment. This is the same actors that they use in EVERY movie, plus they even changed their dialect. That made it even worse.

Beautiful norwegian scenery from the west coast of Norway, and the actors even spoke the local dialect for that area. The story takes the viewer from Norway to Germany and the original language of all locations is kept. Good actors, good story, good tension, quite a few twists and surprises, and just a few minor annoying logical questions I thought the director ought to do something about.

But all in all a great binge story that'll keep you glued to your chair.

Some reviewers have noted that the start was great and the end so long and drawn out with nothing happening.

That is part of the genius of the film! We start off with breathtaking Norwegian scenery, fumbling local cops, and begin to understand what is happening. It helps to know what happened at Utøja in Norway in 2011 in order to understand the motivation.

We cut to boooooring German landscapes, the chaos of Berlin, and dive deeply into the inner workings (or rather, dysfuncationality) of German officials. That is what makes it so believable, and scary.

The acting is great! Ine Marie Wilmann can talk with her eyes, Christian Berkel does a very believable move from arrogant minister to human back to arrogant minister. Some of the others are a bit two-dimensional, but they fit so nicely into Norwegian and German stereotypes.

Another Scandinavian Noir gem. And unfortunately, too believable. No more, don't want to spoil. See it.

Furia is an intense and timely thriller about politics, terrorism, and identity in Europe. The story takes place in Norway and Germany and follows two main characters living under false names. Ragna, also known as Ellen, is a Norwegian secret agent working undercover in a dangerous neo-Nazi group. Asgeir is a former police officer in hiding, who gets pulled into a murder case that reveals something much bigger and darker.

The show is visually beautiful, using lots of drone shots to show Norway's peaceful nature and Berlin's rough city life. While some may find the drone use a bit much, it still gives the show a movie-like feel. The action scenes are intense but always connected to the characters' emotions.

The writing is strong, especially in how it shows the bad guys and the emotional struggles of the leads. Ragna/Ellen ((Ine Marie Wilmann) stands out as a powerful and complex character, while Asgeir's (Pål Sverre Hagen) emotional side might not work for everyone.

In Season 2, the story gets even more exciting. Ragna is wrongly accused and, together with Asgeir, travels across Europe trying to stop a terrorist attack. With suspense, strong acting, and real-world issues, Furia is a smart and gripping watch for fans of serious thrillers.
