A kinda dark catch-the-serial-killer movie. It works enough.

The characters and varied and complex enough to be interesting. Acting is good. The snow covered sceneries are beautiful. The atmosphere really works.

The investigation is interesting in the beginning, but falls apart after a while. Either I missed lots of details, or it really didn't make sense. Maybe because you pretty much guess who the killer is from the moment they say [spoiler]he had medical information[/spoiler] I didn't pay enough attention to the false leads ?

- There's a whole thing about catching the husband of the first woman lying, that goes nowhere.

- They get a call for the second woman disappearance, from her husband. But she's actually there. Then the killer gets her. When she calls her husband he doesn't seem to deny having called the cops. So, what are the odds here ? That's a woman the killer has tracked specifically. And her husband makes a fake call to the cops, and they come a few minutes before the killer ?

- [spoiler]Katrine thinks that Støp is responsible, but apart from the affair, nothing points to that. And doesn't fit the other kills.[/spoiler]


- [spoiler]We can assume the killer from the first case is the same. Mostly because Rafto got a snowman's letter too, but there is no parallel between Harry's and Rafto's relationship to the killer. The death of Vetlesen mirrors Rafto's, but the motives are completely different. Apparently only one woman victim. Plus the cop investigating (Rafto). Because he was closing in ? Nothing shows that. Also it was a long time ago. So still weird.[/spoiler]

- [spoiler] Why would he take the time to establish a relationship with Rakel ? Doesn't fit anything we've seen before.[/spoiler]

- [spoiler]What did he intend to do with Oleg ? And Harry ? Doesn't fit previous behavior either.[/spoiler]

- [spoiler]What's the point of having a scapegoat (doesn't fit other cases either), if you're gonna kill other people just after ?[/spoiler]

- [spoiler]Did he kill Katrine just to get Harry's attention ? Doesn't fit MO either.[/spoiler]

And a big wtf with the ending. Really ? [spoiler]Lakes are frozen, cars can go on it, but there is one small tiny man sized fragile patch that happens to be just in front of Harry and the killer steps on it ?[/spoiler] COME! ON!
