I love shows like this ! Intensity, mystery and great writing. I watched this in two days, every episode made me want to see more. And now the final cliffhanger... I really hope this gets a second season!
I liked how the cast was from different origin; Finland, Sweden, Norway and even UK. As a Finn myself, I enjoyed the occasional Finnish parts like when Atte was first interrogating Astrid. That came as a total surprise! Really enjoyed Eero Milonoff as a whole, he is a great actor and really captivates the nature of his character. All the actors did an amazing job!
The visuals were amazing and big part of it goes to the VFX team. The CGI was seamless! Beautiful scenes and great use of lighting to set the mood. The music also provided for the intensity and made some moments truly thrilling to watch.
Also, I recognized some of the filming locations as the show was mostly filmed in Iisalmi ja Pyhäjärvi in Finland. So cool to see an actual high-budget show on our TV! (actually the most expensive television show ever made around here with a 7 million euro budget !) I read that they also used locals from Pyhäjärvi as extras in some of the scenes, fun stuff. Would really recommend this to anyone who likes these kind of shows!
