Kidnapping

Great writing, good acting. Keeps you guessing. Worth a watch.

At first, Danish thriller 'DNA' feels routine, a police procedural set in (big thrill!) a DNA laboratory. But it soon develops into an engaging and tightly plotted story, in which the importance of DNA is not what we first might think. Indeed, the central story, centred on the Catholic church, felt true enough to make me feel genuinely angry at its fictional characters. As often when watching dramas from a small country, familliar faces soon appear, and Nicolas Bro (who was also in 'The Killing') plays his role well; Charlotte Rampling also features, playing a French policewoman. Overall, it's one of the better Scandi-dramas of recent years.

Some terrible reviews on here but being a big Scandi fan I thought it was excellent and almost in the same class The Bridge and The Killing. Interesting storyline and lots of twists- the only criticism I have is the hopping between time periods, which had me confused at times.

Good cast and production with varied European locations make this a good watch.

I just finished the series and was deeply moved by the end. As a mother of a five-year-old I found the story incredibly painful and gripping. The storytelling was interesting and had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It also raises an issue in society that should not be forgotten.

I binge watched this over 2 nights - as soon as one episode finished I couldn't wait for the subsequent one . A twisted tale of intrigues - and sensitive good performances despite other reviews to the contrary .
