Review of Fractures

Fractures (2022– )
3/10
Icelandic Soap
10 December 2022
Vitjanir (Ftractures) Not much by way of laughs in this. There is no real core story, its just a soap featuring a lot of clichéd storylines and characters suffering from various mental conditions; the borderline dementia clairvoyant, the borderline witch herbalist, the abusive father and husband, the adolescents passing STD around, swingers, the alcoholic and the borderline nymphomaniac doctor, et al.

We also have the now mandatory same sex relationship x2.

It really all got a bit weird in episodes 3 and 4 and I can't say that any of the storylines are particularly interesting.

It briefly picked up towards the end of episode 7 It is probably best described as quirky, but it does make one wonder about rural life in Iceland; they all seem to be related to one another in one way or other.

No reflection on the acting, they just didn't have much to work with.
