I went to see this movie with my girlfriend without having read the book (or any books from the author) before. Basically, I knew nothing about the characters and the story, which usually is a good thing. I won't reveal any details since it would ruin the movie.The main characters are a father and daughter; the first a veteran cop and the other a newly graduated cop. Despite problems within the family, they must work together to solve a series of crimes, which all seem twisted and religious.The character build-up was OK, and the first 3/4 of the movie was actually surprisingly good. The plot was quite good, with some nice twists. The end has some flaws which in my opinion brings the grade down a notch.Conclusion: a better-than-average Swedish thriller with some suspenseful and thrilling parts, but with a so-so ending. Grade: 3.5/5.
