Watchseries; Absolute great series. I really like the character development and the play. It's so smooth and natural. Finally after quite a while, a series where I can go along with every single character.
The girly behaviour as girls are often like in this age, the interaction between the parents but also how they get along with theil feelings for them selves. Nothing is in your face. Everything is evolving naturally. The results of some traumatic experience and how it is handled legally.
The actors play very authentic every one of them without stereotyping. And even when it comes to hurtful memories, the main actress performes absolutely amazing.

All actors' performances are top-notch whilst director's capability of managing this wonderful script and keeping the mystery till the very end is unrivalled.
I highly recommend this one to anyone who can appreciate European TV at its finest.
Sci-fi fans will be disappointed, as the objective here from the producers is to serve us with a story that can happen to anyone. It is one of those stories that could have been easily characterized as "true".
This piece of good television will probably remain timeless because the social/societal, family and personal issues that are raised are of paramount importance for almost all modern societies and communities at large.

I totally enjoyed this series, although the plot is not brilliant nor original, and the ending leaves you with some moral doubts.
But boy does this series flow! After watching so many movies in my life, I know how difficult and how rare it is to create a movie where everything flows naturally, so that the viewers are magically drawn into that universe.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting such a marvelous ease of telling a story with images from a Swedish series, it beats most of the great Danish series I watched in the past. But you cannot avoid noticing that it is a Scandinavian film, that there is something true and just about the way these people do things. I mean, the director, the screenwriter, the actors...the characters...

I enjoyed this very much. It's a murder mystery but with a lot more to it. It's dark, dingy and depressing but very satisfying to watch and see who dunnit. I can't believe it has such a low score on here. Hopefully you'll give it a chance.
The actors did an incredible job as they showed a family falling apart and the desperate measures people will go to for those they love.
I'd recommend checking the parents guide for specific content as some of the subject matter may be triggering.
I'd give it a 9 out of 10. It kept me hooked until the very end and consider the 6 episodes to be just the right length.

Good story, excellent acting, quality production overall. At its heart, it's a mystery series- it seems like the accused is guilty, OR IS SHE??? But my main complaint is that the series is slow. Sloooow. The film could have benefited from better editing. There are lots of meaningless clips which could easily have been cut out to make the show move a bit quicker- just for example, in one scene, it shows the mom getting into an elevator, and the mom is filmed going down several floors and then exiting the elevator. You feel like something is going to happen while she is riding the elevator since all this focus is on her, but nope, it's just a shot of someone riding an elevator. So not interesting. In fact, I found the whole show rather dull until episode 5, then it picks up. Is it worth a watch? For sure. I just recommend having your phone handy to give you something interesting to do during those long boring elevator scenes. 6/10.

First of all congratulations to the outstanding unknown actress Alexandra Karlsson, this is her first film. I watched the series on Binge until the sixth episode, which in 49 minutes tries to overload the viewer with too much information, and as if it was written by a writer from outer space. I don't know the Swedish legal system, but if that's how they operate there In the reality of police investigations, but especially murder trials, the result is that it is actually easier to be a criminal in Sweden. The courtroom looks like a hall in the Palace of Versailles. A criminal trial and a legal decision that ends in less than an hour after witness testimony and summaries? How can you search for the truth like this? I know it's not a docu-film, but to know that's how they do it in court is ridiculous and outlandish. In the end, I was left with philosophical questions, what are the insights that the film is trying to convey to the viewer? What is the conclusion from the movie? Does it pay to lie and cheat? I won't write, but everyone will probably find the answer at the end of the movie.

A Nearly Normal Family watchseries. Fast paced quality TV show that serves realness into the crime/mystery genre.
