Was able to watch this series after Viaplay was made available on Comcast in the US. The English subtitles were all bungled, so missed understanding lot of dialogues. Max Anger With One Eye Open is based on the first of Martin Osterdahl's series books 'Ask No Mercy'. I enjoyed the books; like many Scandinavian thrillers, the book is fast paced, gripping and page turner. The tv show, however, deviates considerably from the book. Characters like Mira are not in the book (instead Ilya - Max's friend in the book is an interesting character). I was surprised to see Max speak English rather than Russian with Russians while in the book it is said Max & Sarah met in Russian language class when they were in the military. Anyway, such interesting details were missed in the show. I think all actors did their best given the script. However, I liked the show, better than any US tv show. Hope there will be Series 2 based on Book 2, with better English subtitles!
