Reviews

"The ARD series 'Island-Krimi' has two switch-on impulses to offer with the filmmaking volcanic island and Franka Potente ." "But the Icelandic thrillers have even more to offer: Unlike the Zurich, which is also responsible for the ARD subsidiary Degeto - Crime and much more so than in the thrillers from Croatia, the setting is at least as important as the main actress. ”But“ apart from the fishing, the actual crime story could also take place somewhere in the alpine province, especially since the script is based on the usual pattern of such films : A woman returning home raises more dust than the locals would like. "

"Wonderful overflights and rushing waterfalls: The 'Iceland crime thriller' with Franka Potente is a hybrid of a crime film and a travel magazine, but exaggerates it with the elf kitsch." Said Oliver Junge from FAZ , accessed on January 2, 2020 at faz.net
