We live in a hyper-critical, hyper-sensitive world where Santa Claus should watch his diet as diabetes is a killer.

Relax everyone! This movie was entertaining from beginning to end and MUCH better than I expected. Listen to the other positive reviews and give it a go.

Overambitious? Yes. Excessive concepts? Yes. Completely enjoyable? Yes!

Not everything is designed to be scrutinised, dissected and critiqued to its dying breath. This movie is exciting, ominous, tense and, at times, intriguing and even confusing. That's good! I was glued to the screen and enjoyed the ride, twist and all.

At times, questionable acting and questionable accents.

A very predictable plot twist you could see coming a mile away.

A lacklustre ending that offers no resolution.

Evacuating a group of people, during a bomb threat, to a single designated location. Not standard protocol and a really dumb idea!

As mentioned by others, concerns that the young Wallander exists in the present day, as does his much older self in the earlier series.

The one shining light, for me, was Hemberg. Dry as a bone and made me laugh out loud on several occasions.
