The Åre Murders (2025– )
7/10
It get better
9 March 2025
I'd give episodes 1-2-3 a six, and episodes 4-5 a nine. So seven it is.

It's a good scandi-noir, but not too dark, not too gloomy. The winter atmosphere is perfect.

Not sure how I feel about main character - Hannah always has this strange face with her mouth half-open like she has some mental problems. Because she doesn't strike me as a brilliant detective. She's just good, empathetic, and doesn't stop.

Her back-story in Stockholm is never properly explained. It resolves so easily - was there even a reason to mention it?

Overall it all comes down to a story, and the first one was not very interesting. It started OK, but mostly it was bland. The motive was not interesting. The second one was much better, the red herrings were smarter, the ending - fantastic!
