Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I can't praise MHZ Network highly enough for FINALLY bringing Varg Veum to the shores of the United States!! Gunnar Staaleson is considered the Raymond Chandler of Norway! The interview and tour of Veum's and Staaleson's Bergen,included in the 6 disc set is NOT to be missed by Euro Crime aficionados! And, YES, it is in English! As for the movies themselves, every one is a suspense filled, dark, noir-like, and VERY, VERY EXCELLENT series of movies NOT TO BE MISSED!! Trond Espen Seim might be a bit younger than the original character in the books, but that can be overlooked because no one but Seim could play Veum! SEIM IS VEUM!! The acting is never over the top nor exaggerated but realistically portrayed by Seim and Bjorn Floberg as his police friend/contact. These movies are so HIGHLY PRAISED in Norway and Europe, that they have won awards! Hopefully,this will stimulate publishers to bring more of Staaleson's novels to America's shores, three of the book series, in English, doesn't even scratch the surface, of Staaleson's massive library of Veum's adventures! Note that these movies would be rated "R" here in states. There is quite a lot of realistically portrayed violence, some nudity and sex, but one hell of a roller coaster ride through Varg Veum's world!! THANK YOU MHZ NETWORK AND AMAZON!!
