Nordland '99 (2022)
Gripping
Story set in '99 in Danmark. Back when mobile phones were barely a thing and cars were really rectangular. The story is about a couple of teens in a small town who want to find their friend who has gone missing. One of the boys' father is a tired police officer, the only one the town has. A year earlier another boy had gone missing, but that remained unsolved.
The story is really well put together. The episodes are short and the storyline keeps you on your toes. I binged the entire series because I was really curious about what was going to happen next. You start to feel for the characters, all having their own troubles, miseries and issues. You learn that through all the miseries there is still so much good in this depressing little town and the main characters. I enjoyed it thoroughly and it the ending touched me, I hope there will be another season.
Hollington Drive (2021)
Quite liked it, reviews ruined it
Found the series quite good and I have seen virtually all British murder series there is. I don't know why this series got so many bad reviews, usually I agree, and it sort of ruined it for me, watching the series. Was really intrigued with who committed the murder and if it was a murder. The plot was really good I believe.
Close to Me (2021)
Started of good, then got bad
Really did not like the main characters. The woman is hysterical, crying, screaming, over dramatical. The husband seems mean, but his wife is impossible to live with. The only thing I felt really sad about was the dog dying.
Snöänglar (2021)
Difficult to watch
Though I know it's reality, I found it really hard to watch and was glad it was over. I felt for Maria, trying to do good en not being heard or acknowledged. Thank I don't know who that Salle has some compassion for his children. I agree with another reviewer that this is kind of unrealistic. I really did not like Jenni, though she probably had a sad life she only asks voor Lucas once he is gone, she didn't care about him when he was home. I know this is reality. Makes me really happy with my life, but also really sad that there is so much misery in the world. We need to be kind to one another.
DNA (2019)
Really interesting!
Enjoyed this series so much. A lot of factors into play: the catholic church, laws in Poland, international collaboration. The lead actor was really good. Though the plot starts of as far fetched, it turns out to be great, once you get past that. And you really hope that he will finds his daughter.
Efterforskningen (2020)
Really interesting
I started watching this serieus without any reading into it. I wondered why it was so slow and why we didn't get to see the suspect. Also, the case sounded familiair to me (I mean, how many stories are there concerning a death and a submarine). After two episodes I started reading the reviews and really appreciated the show. It's a really good watch, the way it went and nothing more (a little personal drama from the head investigator). Gave me chills sometimes. Loved it!
