Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)
Warning child character.
Started well but my worst fears were realised. The writing of the child character heads into off-putting territory that ruins so many good movies/shows.
1. The child is a smartass.
2. The child has insight far beyond her age which just serves to forward the plot in a clumsy, annoying manner and creates contrived danger through her stupidity and contrariness.
If you are raising children then brattish behaviour you take as part of the territory, it's part of what you signed up for. You will not however find it entertaining in a show and this you can turn off.
Troppo (2022)
Not predictable.
Finished episode 5 and not quite sure where it's going still which is good. Yes Nicole Chamoun is a little flat at times but Thomas Jane is up to his usual standard. Not sure what issue one would have with his accent, after all he is actually American. Have a look at his other other work, that's his real voice.
Bron/Broen (2011)
Just a few too many as if moments
Well acted and an interesting script. But as I headlined a few too many as if moments. The classic being that the terrorist seems to never sleep. He can stay in sight of where the cop is held so he can step out to shoot him despite not knowing when and where the cop will appear.
I presume he would have had night vision goggles in case it was at night. Kind of cheapens a good show when the culprit needs Hollywood super powers to have the upper hand and create suspense. The loss of Kim Bodnia diminishes the series also.
