Tense Danish Crime Thriller which Starts Well but is spoilt in second half - Darkness: Those Who Kill: Series 2 review by PV
OK so this started so well - the first DVD of 4 episodes. Credit to the writers, the actors too, esp the boy.
BUT then, in the second half, it all goes wrong (NO SPOILERS). Just to say that when writers decide to create unlikely coincidences to drive the plot forward, connect characters and create dramatic tension, they are scraping the barrel or, most likely, trying to stretch what should have maybe been a 6 part drama into 8 parts.
Up until that point, I;'d give this 4.5 stars; The latter half really does spoil it - my eyes were rolling so far back in my head I am surprised I could still watch it tbh. Totally unnecessary. Ditto the love interest (no spoilers). A real shame because up to then it was great.
As I know how writers think I know what they were playing at and why - and I suppose they had to stretch the story out to 8 episodes and add a required love interest BUT I SO WISH THEY HAD NOT. A real shame. I preferred the first series.
Be aware the subtitles are both American and often wrong too.
