The Chestnut Man (2021– )
9/10
GREAT STORYTELLING
10 November 2021
The mark of a truly great Whodunnit film is how well it's able to conceal the identity of the killer without trying too hard through plot devices or tricks that cheapen how the story is told. This film succeeds in doing this. No one, including the viewer, has an inkling who the Chestnut Man is until the very end.

Intriguing story with a quite capable cast. Mikel Folsgaard and Naia Thulin make a good pair of detectives. David Dencik (Simon Genz) is a cool forensic doctor and Iben Dorner adds a palpable human touch as the grieving mother and public official.

At 6 episodes, the story is tight. It's well-executed with consistently good cinematography. It's binge-worthy.
