A B grade thriller from Norway. The writing is quite poor, the acting pretty awful. Had the story line been presented in a more adult fashion it might have worked, but the characters are not sympathetic, and quite gormless. There is no depth here. Throw a scene at the screen and see what sticks. A cop who is caught using Heroin, and is merely suspended? A female cop who can thrash a muscled hit man into submission twice? A lawyer who looks befuddled at the best of times?
Season 2 is coming. Be still my beating heart.
