Well..... Well.... Well.... What an absolute masterpiece if writing, direction, cinematography and acting.... Some of Icelands finest involved in the this terrific series that swings from the blackest of comidies to utter despair and tragedy... I totally binged this show until 4am as i couldn't possibly leave it behind. The drone shots are amazing and specifically captured at the right moments when nature truly does it's thing. The tears are real, the laughter bursting. The sound design for me was spit int.. Placed and put together at not only the right tempo amd emotion, but volume also... Happy to say no GOT drums here.. Really fabulous, thanks to everyone involved.

It's my first review on IMDB.

Thies series is absolutely gem. Unknown actors create very spectacular and colourfull personages, plot is absolutely crazy in good way, like in "Fargo". Soundtrack is perfect, operator work - superb. And this all based on real facts :D.

What a beautiful series this is considering it recalls such a dreadful real life event that destroyed a community. Sometimes the pure pace of a show draws you in and makes you feel like you are involved. Every part of this is just so perfectly put together.......... From the cast to the script,,,the wardrobe,cinematography are just wonderful. The music that some of us grew up with just sits right, and the score is really spot on. .......I do so hope the creators of this can follow through with many series of real life events, a bit like Fargo. Sooooooo good. MORE MORE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun series. Acting could be better and fewer gimmicks Very realistic and well researched journal about corruption in politics and business in Iceland. Many good historical occurance in the 80's in Iceland.
