Review of Witch Hunt

Witch Hunt (2020)
7/10
Apparently realistic, but several predictable moments and "arid" subject
10 July 2022
Corridors of different power are not too known for laymen who tend to stick to ingrained ideas how the financiers and politicians operate and cooperate... On the other hand, criticism is often painful and almost every company has something to hide -- so the fate of whistle-blowers if disclosed is never too mild, even in countries with strong legal basis. All this is decently depicted in Heksejakt, both script-wise and cast-wise (with Ingrid Bolsø Berdal pleasantly "in charge"), but pessimism prevails over optimism, paving the way for the outcome we saw (in a way, I liked it as a US series would have used an only positive one).

As I know that Norway is one of the least corrupt countries in the world, many aspects/twists/solutions seemed somewhat far-fetched to me. So "only" 7 points here this time.
