Beck - Season 10 (first part)
Two episodes of Beck that hit the old familiar level.
Nowadays, you often see that seasons are cut up. It's a marketing ploy that generates extra money. Often you can pay twice the amount you previously paid for an entire season. It is probably a way to finance the higher costs, but it does not feel really customer-friendly.
Now it must be said that especially the first story of an hour and a half is old-fashioned good. The story is excellently put together. The tension is palpable without forgetting the personal storylines. Children go missing and some of them are found murdered. The big question, of course, is who is responsible for this. That there is more to it than initially thought is a logical fact in a detective series like Beck. The further introduction of Beck's grandson gives this episode some extra dynamism.
The second episode of one and a half hours is about a lost laptop with state secrets on it. A murder in a bargain hall seems to be directly related to this. When the Säpo (the Swedish security service) gets involved, the team around Beck knows that there is more to it. The fact that this service opposes rather than cooperates with the police makes the team even more determined to solve the case. This episode mainly ensures that the personal concerns of one of the main characters are given a major role. The outcome may be somewhat predictable. The question is why Steinar (Kristof Hivju, Game of Thrones) shows up, because his contribution is negligible.
Beck has long since earned his spurs. Usually, the story has a certain pattern and solutions. They will step away from that in the second part of this season. Perhaps most striking is that the often hilarious ending with Beck and his neighbor in this first part of this season no longer takes place at the end of the episode, but is in the middle of the episodes. Nothing but praise for the acting. After so many years of playing a role, it is clear that the actors know their characters down to their DNA. The imagery and the structure of the stories are well put together. The television series has been running for so many years for a reason. Especially tribute to the first episode, because it revives old times. It's the main reason I'm giving it an eight.
There is no trailer available for this season yet.
