Featured review
This review is strictly for Season 2.
First of all, it's MUCH better than season 1. As for Season 2 . . .
I had to go back and watch it twice. The first time I viewed it, the plot was too complex for me to fully penetrate. Primarily because there were so many people doing villainous things, it was hard to keep track of the characters. Usually, you can differentiate between the "good guys" and the "bad guys." And that helps to make a distinction between characters. But during Season 2, the characters all mix together in your head because seemingly none of them can be trusted.
IMHO,Season 2 is truly phenomenal. And the proof of that is, the plot entirely held up under a second viewing. I DID fast forward through a couple of action scenes because I already knew what was about to happen. But I took my time with the dialogue scenes and they all held up well.
Lately, I've been disappointed with the Camilla Lackberg crime series. Viewing Mammon for the second time reveals why. Mammon Season 2 is textured and although there are many "relationship" scenes, they do not devolve into soap opera style dialogues.
The plot of the second season IS quite intricate but pretty much every scene is credible. My only criticism would be the writer included a couple of scenes relying upon the "sneak up from behind the female" shtick. Which is mystifying because the writer was Margrete Soug Kåset, a female. Any woman knows females can sense when someone is staring at them from behind, let alone trying to sneak up on them. Scenes where the bad guy sneaks up on the female from behind are just NOT credible. So one has to wonder what Margrete Soug Kåset was thinking when she wrote such nonsense, demeaning the perceptive capabilities of women.
Having watched it twice, I can attest that the production values of Mammon 2 are exceptional and finely detailed. All of the scenes are expertly lit and well choreographed. Furthermore, there are no "clunker" actors. Every character is believable.
I've written several reviews and this is the first 10 I've given. Some will say the plot is too complex. But anyone who views it for a second time will realize the story would not have held together if the filmmakers had simplified the plot. Furthermore, this is a mystery that is satisfying to watch more than once.
Mammon - Season 2 is every bit as good as Bron/Broen and much better than Engrenages.
