  • Scandinavian noir

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Complex and gripping drama set in Copenhagen. Superbly acted and filmed. The plot twists and turns more time than a corkscrew but never loses your attention. Highly recommended.

  • Absolutely brilliant

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer , 01 Jun 2013
    Now I know why everyone was raving about this programme. It is first-rate. Acting superb throughout. They kept the suspense going really well with a little cliff-hanger at the end of each episode to make you eager for the next one. You would think that 20 episodes would be too long but it really was not.

  • The Best

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer , 01 Jun 2013
    Possibly the best crime series I have ever seen. It is fantastic, the acting brilliant, the characters intriguing. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. And we couldn't do anything else but watch the next episode.

  • The chilly allure of Lund.

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer , 30 May 2013
    A superb multiple murder mystery wrapped up in a convoluted political mystery and clothed in the mystery of the Danish language. Compulsive viewing! A few small criticisms for which I withhold a star:- it's very long, several loose ends are left untied and I'm not convinced the solution is beyond reasonable doubt. Apparently the book provides a more comprehensive explanation.

  • Gripping drama

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By Wille9 (3 reviews) from London , 12 May 2013
    The worse thing was waiting for the next DVD to arrive in the post, full of twists and turns, but manages to be unguessable (Well for me) until the end. A totally gripping drama.

  • Danish acting at its best

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By emily8634 (1 review) , 06 May 2013
    Only viewed the first four episodes so far. Does Borgen and The Killing share the same casting director or are there only a handful of Danish actors! Nevertheless, fast-paced, complicated and very watchable.
