Trying but failing
2 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILERS. I tried to finish the first season after the first chapter but I failed miserably just like this serie. Normally it's a save bet, Danish series but this one is hopefully the exception. Trying to much getting on the success train of series like the bridge. Female police officer with issues a mile long gets the lead on the homicide devision. In her first case she has to shoot a suspect just before he manage to pull the trigger on her colleague. Showcase of justifiable shooting if there is ever one but no, she of the case and restricted to administrative duties. Ofcourse she starts her own investigation against standard police procedure ignoring her bosses direct orders. Ofcourse she choose a weird male character to help her. Due to complete incompetence of the rest of the department she manage to get a important breakthrough, or rather the weird male did. Hop, back on leading the case again. From that point on it's up and down in the faith of the boss in her abilities. Aside from that they ignore pretty much every basic police procedure in the rule book. The deepest point of disappointment is how the killer allmost manage to kill the only surviving victim whose in protective custody. Apparently the guarding police officers don't get briefed which personal are allowed contact, everyone with a pass and white coat is granted, which are hanging around in every corridor. No foto's or face to face identification admitted in the open hospital, not even when she catch the guy due to her spider sence. Instead she is, again, reprimanded that she pins the dude against the wall for not complying to her instructions. Not even then there checking if the man is who he claims to be. It gets on and on like this up till the end where she holds the killer at gunpoint after being tortured for several hours. She gave up her revenge intent after her weird co-worker refuse to leave the room but is forced to kill him after all after he manage to get the gun of the arresting officer. Up to the next chapter where her shooting of the suspect is hold against her from the start. It goes on the same way in this chapter which was enough for me. So my score is 4 more out of spite then anything else. Maybe if you don't care about police procedure you have fun with this. Then try for yourself, don't say I didn't warned you.
