Review of Farang

Farang (2017)
7/10
Good, in fact, but does not measure up to many other Swedish series
8 January 2018
True, the thrill is there and maintained, episodes well composed and connected, the number of cliches limited, but apparently the different dimensions of Swedish and Thai acting and sporadic use of beautiful nature as a filler did not let me enjoy Farang as much as e.g. Bron/Broen, Kodnamn Hunter, Röd snö - to name a few... Ole Rapace is good, but too dominant; as for other characters, it was to my liking that some "good guys" died as well. Also, I liked realistic round-ups, with some loose ends left, without the U.S. type of spreading happy end.
