Erwartung: Der Marco-Effekt

Saw the first films with Nikolaj-Lie Kaas as inspector Mørck and Fares Fares as Assad.

It could work with Mørck (Played by Ulrich Thomsen) being rude, having no empathy and hellbound on solving the case no matter whos toes he treads upon. But when the rest of the crew around him acts more or less in the same fashion it simply gets boring and uninteresting. Where Assad were much more involved, and a individual character in the first films, he is reduced to a weak voice in the background and a boring sidekick.

Rosa is also tuned dowfrom a strong and independent woman in the first films, to an uninteresting and forgettable supporting role.

The plot is obvius and you have to struggle not to doze off while you see it.

If you have not seen the first films, go check them out and give this one a wide berth.
