Heksejakt

Enjoyable, tense drama from start to finish. Did not find it predictable. Excellent acting from main characters. More credible and better developed than many British series.

Corridors of different power are not too known for laymen who tend to stick to ingrained ideas how the financiers and politicians operate and cooperate... On the other hand, criticism is often painful and almost every company has something to hide -- so the fate of whistle-blowers if disclosed is never too mild, even in countries with strong legal basis. All this is decently depicted in Heksejakt, both script-wise and cast-wise (with Ingrid Bolsø Berdal pleasantly "in charge"), but pessimism prevails over optimism, paving the way for the outcome we saw (in a way, I liked it as a US series would have used an only positive one).

As I know that Norway is one of the least corrupt countries in the world, many aspects/twists/solutions seemed somewhat far-fetched to me. So "only" 7 points here this time.

Working in a similar field I can confirm that these kind of activities and the difficult dilemmas they pose for compliance staff are all too common.

I found the series a great binge watch, with entertaining if predictable plot turns and excellent acting.

My main criticism is that while virtually every male is portayed in a negative way (dishonest, greedy, sexist, weak, alcoholic, bullying, unpleasant) all of the several female leads are honest, caring, likeable, intelligent and downtrodden. This blanket approach to characterisations is very obvious and becomes tiresome quite quickly. A little more balance between the sexes would have been appropriate.

I thought this would be a dull series than after the first emission i got catch.i like it very much when we can see photos and ways that foreign country live !!

Had a lot of potential, but falls victim to cheap and predictable plot twists again and again
