Tore

I found the series very entertaining. These type of series are becoming more and more popular in Scandinavia - the combination of humor and drama, the complex characters, the realistic yet unrealistic struggles - and I love it.

The music score is good, the characters are complex, and the manuscript is original. I loved it, and really hope there will be an another season.

As for the actors - they did an outstanding job. I mean, all of them! First of all, William Spetz portrays this grieving, dorky, exploring character in such a good way. His girlfriend, Linn, made me laugh loudly multiple times (I loved her character), and Erik, Heidi, Tore's colleagues, Viggo, shady & Lo, and even Linn's son were great. And by great, I mean this is how Scandinacians appear, speak and act realistically (myself included). Will probably watch the whole series again sometime.

Tore hits you right in the heart. It takes you to the ups and mostly downs that happen.

Tore is about a guy named tore that is 27 years old and still lives with his dad. He barely has any life experience and almost lives through his best friend. Suddenly his dad dies and the base is gone for him, he suddenly needs find who he is and deal with his grief. Which goes messy to say the least.

The pain, emotions and confusing is grabbing you through the screen. The acting makes the story that is already amazing even better. The acting is believable and really makes you feel for the characters, for all of them.

You should absolutely watch it. Although it can be emotionally draining it is absolutely worth it. So go watch I would say!

Normally I don't write reviews, but this series unexpectedly touched me so much.

The storyline and characters did such a good job in showing the complexity of loss and pain. The strange choices we make and the behaviour we show whilst not saying or expressing what we really want or need.

I read someone saying it's overacting, but to me it was precisely perfect. There's a lot of meaning in the things unsaid. If that makes sense. Like when you're supposed to get a comforting touch but you didn't.

I think anyone struggling with loss, drugs, sexuality and self-love(or self destructive behaviour) will recognise something in this series.

Lots of newer movies and series about a central character being homosexual have got it so wrong because they use the protagonists sexuality and/or how they're perceived and treated because of it as the main challenge to overcome. Here the main character just happens to be homosexual and the angst and personal issues have almost nothing to do with that. This refreshing perspective on a flawed character who just happens to be gay is exciting to watch and the story grips you from episode one until the release in the final moments of the last episode. The performers are top notch and especially by the actor who plays protagonist who also happens to be the writer and you can't help but wonder how personal the story is to them. Every character is relatable and situations move from the deeply tragic to comic with such ease and deftness one has to credit the director/s and the technical team for bringing that to the screen. Bravo! Ten stars!!!

This series stands as a testament to the power of visual storytelling, seamlessly weaving together a potent soundtrack and exceptional cinematography with performances that pierce the veneer of mere acting. It plunges the viewer into the turbulent odyssey of Tore, whose journey is not one for the faint of heart. The narrative doesn't shy away from the gritty realities of a life unraveling at the seams, capturing the essence of a coming-of-age story that eschews the trappings of cliché, providing an unflinching look at the consequences of an intensely traumatic event. It astutely challenges the viewer's suspension of disbelief, positing that the human psyche can indeed spiral from sobriety into the depths of substance abuse under the weight of profound distress. Adding to its authenticity, the series features the iconic Patricia-a real-life Stockholm club that lends a raw and pulsating backdrop to Tore's descent. Compact in its storytelling, the series offers a concise narrative that can be devoured in a single evening, marking it as a piece of television that not only entertains but lingers, prompting introspection long after the screen fades to black.
