Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: "The Revenge" is well-made, above-average TV, but it seems small for the big screen. The plot is a bit predictable, and we're still getting to know the characters when the story ends.
Fresh: "The Revenge" is a smooth-enough entertainment that should appeal to Wallander completists and aficionados of the cresting wave of Scandinavian crime stories.
Rotten: On the whole this is a routine mystery tale existing mainly to introduce new characters to the Wallander universe and allow for future installments.
Fresh: An old-fashioned, taut, well-crafted thriller-complete with several wonderful twists.
Customer Reviews
Outstanding
Perhaps the best crime series on film. Inspired by the Wallander series, done with grace, humor, passion, wit. Beautiful. Superb.
