This was pretty good…once I got the characters straight. Everyone is so bundled up in winter gear that I couldn’t tell them apart! Kind of like a Finnish version of Guy Ritchie’s “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” only a bit slower. Description lists “Comedy” but it’s not a funny ha ha type of comedy…more like chuckle chuckle or even hee hee.
Nonetheless, I enjoyed it. The ending set up a possible follow-on season…I’ll allow it!
