Format:DVD
The films about Van Veeteren are based on Haakan Nesser's bestseller novels around the fictive North European city of Maardam and follows the retired Chief Inspector Van Veeteren (Sven Wollter) and his two successors Inspectors Munster (Thomas Hanzon) and Moreno (Eva Rexed).
There are three movie length instalments on this DVD starting with Moreno and the silence:
Moreno is working late and talks a call from a terrified woman who is being kidnapped. Moreno tries to calm her down while they trace the call, but unfortunately they are unable to save her in time. The hunt for the kidnapper/killer leads them to a religious community that is far from helpful in the investigation and soon a second victim is found and a third woman is missing and as Moreno is working against time and the silence of the community, she asks her old mentor Van Veeteren to give a helping hand.
Nice to see Moreno as more than just one of the colleagues
The Swallow, The Cat, The Rose and Death
Muster is still on sick leave after the stabbing when he is asked by a priest - who doubles as his poker mate along with Van Veeteren - to visit a woman who lives in an abusive relationship and tell her to get out and what the police can do for her if she chooses to do so. Unfortunately he is late and she's already dead.
Moreno is in charge of the case and asks him to stop by the station as a "witness" but really mostly because she can see that he is bored out of his skull sitting at home. Their boss though is of a different opinion and will not let him help till he gets the all clear from the psychiatrist.
Despite being banned frm the station he continues his own investigation and as there is a rare book as one of the clues, he asks Van Veeteren for assistance.
Case G

Another great addition to the Scandi series. This collection is better than the first one as we get to know the characters better and the cases also seem to have more meat on them
The discs have subtitles in Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish as well as English.

Captivating.

Perhaps the best psychological legal thrillers in the world. From the scripts, to the acting, to the direction, each episode is a thrilling masterpiece. Even though I see them with subtitles, I'm glued to the TV and delighted to be there!

Avoid!

Swedish television and theaters utterly drown in this kind of junk. Endless cop shows and movies, based on endless series of cop novels, they were bad to begin with and they just get worse. The makers of these things look down on american movies but keep stealing from them in the most inept ways. They are bad in every single department. Don't even think about it, just say no.
