Normally, I find Nordic crime dramas among the best -- I have watched several that have been favorites, though "The Lava Field" isn't among them. The scenery is beautiful, but it's not enough to compensate for the lackluster engagement and drying-paint pacing. The acting isn't what I've come to expect for the genre, with the lead detective seemingly taking double the normal xanax dose before he arrives at work. Fortunately, this isn't the Nordic norm, and it shouldn't be long before something more representative of the usual quality comes along :-)
