Efterforskningen

Some fine acting here and a pleasant minimalist production. This is not amazing storytelling or cinematography but I found myself pretty engaged in the realistic documentation of the various ways the police attempted to solve the crime and build the case, and less so by the underdeveloped social life-arc that seemed a little unnecessary. A good watch, and I'm blown away by the cadaver dogs-at-sea. So cute and great!

This could've been much better if it was a movie. If you're not getting into characters' lives or any details, what is the point of making 6 episodes? Also, I don't understand why they didn't show the victim and the murderer at all. It could've been much more interesting if they had got in their lives as well. Regardless, typical good quality Nordic stuff but I was expecting more than this.

It never sets a foot wrong, but it does drag its feet a bit here and there. While it's borderline dull at times (which I'm sure is a realistic portrayal of even this type of police work), the acting and direction are always very solid.
