Fred til lands

When a hoodlum torments a community, a group of residents decide to kill him. But can they sink their own differences, arrange the murder, and live with themselves afterwards? It sounds like a good premise for a drama, but the problem with 'Deliver Us' is that it's all so obviously contrived: every participant has their own secrets, motives, and points of conflict with the other; at times it feels like an Agatha Christie plot, albeit one revealed in advance of the killing. I think the real problem here is the length; there's actually a good feature film probably buried in this plot, but not really eight hours of drama.

I really like the concept with a town bully that people are feed up with, and I'm a sucker for Danish movies and TV shows. But for some reason I never really fell in love with this. The middle episodes where kind of slow and no really likeable characters. Plus point for some twists.

I really liked this show. Has the same style as the awesome 'Hunt for a killer'. Crafted script combined with some quality delivery from the cast.

The first episode seems a bit boring. But ones you hooked, it's getting more interesting every minute. I expected some sort of Rigoletto kind of end, but it is much better. In short, it good and I like it!

By "difficult", I mean that the scenes of extreme bullying by the villain of this series are very, very hard to watch. This isn't quite a "horror" film kind of series where you need to cover your eyes to watch bits of it but some of the scenes with the town bully are so hard to take in that you do find yourself squirming in your seat and wanting to look away. I'm afraid that by midway through episode 2, my wife and I just decided it wasn't at all pleasant so we decided not to put ourselves through any more of it.

Well made and with some name Danish actors who always shine and certainly well directed and filmed so absolutely no complaints on those scores.

It might be to some people's tastes (e.g. if you like horror genre - not that this is any way a horror series - perhaps this is for you), but it wasn't for us.
