Save yourself the money on this movie. Scenes from the trailer are nowhere to be found in the movie, but I can live with that if the movie is still good, but boy it wasn't.
This could have been a good mystery IF they made Arve Stop actually do some shady stuff, the entire movie Katrine wanted to bust Arve for the murders, but based on what? Sleeping with woman...? Making money by betraying friends...? This movie had waaaaay too many loose ends. If you watch the movie you know what I mean. The entire sequence between Rafto and Svenson for example. Was this just a filler? What did it add to the movie, except for the murder scene of Rafto?
The movie makes a very predictable end by putting the nice guy as a bad guy. Motive of the winter murder spree is not explained that good in the movie. The way he died was too stupid for words. For people who want to know, he fell through the ice, when he was closing in on a shot down detective Harry Hole. For a serial killer that never doubted killing someone this death could easily be prefented by shooting his gun from a distance.
So keeping this all in mind. I rate the movie a 3, because of the acting. it was ok, but ok acting doesn't make an ok movie.
