The Nurse

Great acting!

Josephine Park and Fanny Louise Bernth were excellent together.

Being a nurse I can't believe there was no register of what drugs were being taken. Knowing how strict it is where I work, it's astonishing. We only have to accidentally drop a diazepam on the floor and we are on our hands and knees frantically looking for it. I'm sure this has changed in Denmark.

The only real negative that I found was that it sort of dragged on a bit until the last 20 or so minutes in the last episode and it all sort of wrapped up and was finished. It's based on a true story, which always gives an element of shock when such horrifying stories are told. There's a few psychopathic nurse stories and this was is an enjoyable watch.

A true story of a nurse that kills patients by giving them drugs. If it sounds familiar it's because you've seen It before on a different Netflix series. There's a few differences, but it's a familiar story.

The acting is mediocre, the dubbing is poor, and it's a little slow. It's predictable, and boring at times but it's worth a watch if you've exhausted all other options and have a few hours to kill. Some reviews gave it 10/10 and some didn't like it at all but I found it to be average or a bit below.

The fact that it's factual is what kept me going. It was hard to understand the fact that the nurses at the hospital had unlimited access to the medicine room and they didn't keep track of the drugs. They'd never do this in the US, not with all the pill poppers in the world.

Based on a true story but as a drama it had plenty of flaws. At the start it looked like it would be quite a good story but the writer kept quite close to what actually happened, and it left a very simplistic sequence of events.

By the end it felt like I'd watched a documentary, but acted out without any narration.

The family and relationship subplots were particularly weak and uninteresting. The acting was moderate, but the cast really didn't have much to help them.

Some extremely monotonous and repetitive sets. One I found especially annoying was how the protagonist almost always talked to her daughter in bed.

Disappointing, but at least it was short.

As I don't like long series, I just only go for the 3 or 4 parts-series. In the beginning you don't know who is de bad nurse, it just unfolds.. and then.. how do you get to the arrest? It's a extreme difficult situation, as no colleague wants to listen to a bad story about a so-called well-skilled nurse. The difficulties the whistleblower had to go through, are unimaginable. The story line with some personal, family issues in between, is very entertaining, in a real life sense. The filming is still very easy to watch, still nerve wrecking. That the 'good nurse' pulled the thing through is a big miracle, and she is a hero.

I was actually surprised at myself for not liking this series. Because I thought I would love a Danish production, Scandinavian film atmosphere and a slow-moving series. But I didn't like it and I got bored. While I like slow-paced movies, this mini series was too slow. I think it could have shot better. Acting wasn't bad. Of course, I don't know how good the acting is, as I don't speak Danish, but it think it is okay. The series was so boring that I didn't care that it was adapted from real events, that these events actually happened. So, I haven't done any research on these events. It didn't interest me. But the truth is that this event will remain a black mark in Danish history.
