Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Last decade or so has seen so many good Scandinavian crime series that been-there-seen-that feeling is easy to arise, particularly in a relatively small country like Sweden where the number of film actors is not too big. Moreover, it is hard to believe that Swedish police force have to deal with so severe issues as depicted, and many scenes and solutions tend to imitate UK and US related series... Dragomir Mrsic as Alex Leko is convincing though, but his co-performers are not too memorable, and the whole series lags behind such recent Swedish series as Innan vi dör or Springfloden, for example. On the other hand, if you like Snabba cash or Pusher type of works, then Alex is a logical follow-up.

AlexWhen you think of Swedish crime drama you first will think of wallander and beck. Those are the old. Alex is the new!Alex feels fresh and genuine. In the leading male we see Dragomir Mrsic (snabba cash) and leading female Malin Arvidsson (Arne Dahl, Vitt skräp).The story is focused around Alex a dirty cop. He gets more and more dragged in to where he should not be.This is an intense series. Smart directed and fast paced.I would recommend everyone to at least give it a shoot. If you want to see Wallander this is not for you. If you want to see Wallander x 10 this is for you!
