Maskineriet

Really good show. A lot of suspense. Good acting. Season 2 even better than season 1. Binge watch worthy. I saw the 2 seasons in a couple of days and I loved every episode.

Some viewer revies of this Series amaze me... Have you never seen most of e.g. US series with related themes, with focus only on funny lines, cute performer faces, politically correct characters and totally happy ending? True, Maskineriet has its flaws, including some breach of logic and arid female characters, but the thrill is maintained, and Kristoffer Joner as Olle Hultén and Gabriel Gunerius Fevang as Jimmy are far above average.

The thing just is that Sweden more and Norway less have dozens of catchier and more versatile series, and of course, Maskineriet is no Innan vi dör or Øyevitne, for example, but if you have seen them already, you are definitely not wasting some 6 hours of your life!

PS Season 2 is somewhat more interesting, but the amount of parallel storylines is excessive. On the other hand, there are some witty twists and turns. Again, better than mediocre.

The show explores the interconnectedness of these events and the ripple effect they have on the lives of those involved. The plot is tense and suspenseful, as the viewer is left wondering how these disparate storylines will converge.

The acting in The Machinery is superb, particularly by the lead actor, who convincingly portrays Olle's confusion and desperation. The supporting cast is equally impressive, with nuanced performances that bring depth and complexity to their characters.

The cinematography and direction are also top-notch, with sweeping shots of the Norwegian landscape and intense, close-up scenes that heighten the drama.

Overall, The Machinery is a gripping and well-crafted thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Its unique premise and strong performances make it a standout addition to the genre, and it is not to be missed by fans of crime dramas.

I tried so hard to watch episode by episode, but the story gets very boring and the acting of some characters it's just cringe. Especially the cop lady. Just skip to the last episode, save your time.

I really enjoy this show. I'm not a great fan off all the Nordic noir. They really should start think differently and renew the genre . But I noticed that Maskineriet have the same director as Gåsmamman, another Swedish series I like with a different tone and great casting .
