El asesino improbable

An interesting true crime story and a good job bringing it to life. The characters were well acted and the storyline flowed easily. Toward the end it gets a bit cluttered with multiple time lines being developed, but it works out.

Absorbing and extremely well crafted theoretical scenario to the murder of the Swedish Prime Minister in 1986.

Not the Swedish enforcement agencies finest moment by any stretch. It beggars belief how they were side-tracked by conspiracy theories and not looking closer to home even if this scenario is wrong. It is extremely doubtful that it will ever be proven one way or the other.

It was a very good and interesting watch.

Very interesting if a little annoying with all the jumping around between timeframes. An amazing story of gross incompetence by the Swedish police in contrast with the detectives in The Bridge and The Killing. Saga Noren would have solved it by episode 4 !!

Glad I watched it though as it's an amazing story and the acting was excellent by the main characters. I do hope the Swedes have tightened up on security in the light of these events.

It was always a strange assassination because in a decade full of terrorism a prime-minister walked the streets without bodyguards. It's almost incomprehensible then and now. And however peaceful Sweden is/was the reality is that you are always going to come across an Oswald type oddball who happened to have a gun. Prominent people attract these types and there is no way around that.

The movie needed some serious editing to cut it down and it needed to explore the motivation more - it was never clear and everything got put in the proverbial pot.

It's strange to see a world without CCTV cameras and smartphones. If this happened today there would be dozens of cameras on him before the event and dozens of phones on him after it. He wouldn't have stood a chance.

The trailer doesn't do it justice.

I just wanted it just from the title. This was shockingly damn GOOD!! These cops dropped the ball from first hour! Continue to watch give excuses to the shooter. Dude was the idea killer but they just believed it had to be the CIA or some terrorist group. This is a slow drawn out good well written watch.
