If you've already watched seasons 1 and 2 you'll feel right at home here. In fact you'll even know your way around the small North Icelandic fishing bill where most of it is filmed. Season three was named Entrapped which is an extension of 1 and 2s Trapped and most of the characters are static throughout yet Entrapped integrates a plot twist by way of introducing a biker mc gang and a pagan cult into the mix which heightens the tension. There are several new faces added to the short list of regulars. This final season was undoubtedly the best in terms of capturing Icelandic natural beauty. The Norse saga feel becomes all the more eminent here. Minor plot twists in terms of Andri the hero of the series played by the American born Icelandic actor Olafur Darri Olafsson. The Danish actor Thomas Bo Larson provides a convincing MC prez and the whodunnit plot on the Icelandic rocks rolls along fueled by the volcanic surroundings filmed and directed by Balthasar Kormakur. It would have been a full pot if it were not for the strange ending judicially speaking. Otherwise a nice surprise. Underrated Nordic crime noir works for me.
