Stella Blómkvist

Heida Reed got a part in the new procedural FBI International which I watched and I'd never seen her before so checked this out. Very watchable series and the obligatory plot twists are never too obvious. The Icelandic scenery was novel, and I half expected Stella to be kidnapped and taken to an active volcano or something for interrogation, but that never happened. Well worth a watch.

This is an entertainment! Right ? And fiction. Right? And ironic. Right? Just enjoy it. 😁

If this series is representative of modern day Iceland, it certainly does not portray it in a very "likeable" light! A lawyer who sleeps around with any and everyone, incompetent police, corrupt leaders and a superpower trying to buy the country, are all not pleasant to see but is what seems to be happening in that country. While the series is entertaining at times because of its modernity, it does have the potential to become formulaic and tiresome. Best enjoyed until that happens, but be prepared to watch a series that does not seem to have boundaries on sexuality or sexual situations!

She does everything wrong: as a young lady smoking in public places, drinking (rather expensive in Iceland) whisky, getting herself in every impossible situation you can think of. The openings scene is not for children or for very prudent people. But if you are neither you will love Stella Blomkvist. Watch it, you get your moneys worth. I hope there will be a second season!

Loved this series.. All good... Acting, script, cinematography and all the characters
