The Bridge: Series 3 [DVD]

This series is even better than the previous two. In the beginning I missed Martin being in it, but actually things moved on quickly and his absence didn't detract from this series at all. The plot did become increasingly complicated as the series went on and it became a bit difficult to keep up with all the different characters (although a large number died in each episode!) and what their motives might have been for the murders. At the start of series 1 Saga seemed like such a strange character that it was hard to see how it was going to work - but as the story moved on across all three series, I found myself liking and understanding her more and more, and her personality (possibly autistic), became almost endearing - particularly after meeting the mother from hell. I would love there to be a fourth series, but I suspect there won't be one. This was a fantastic TV drama and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone. Even the subtitles didn't detract from the story lines. Tack.

I understood this series and the storylines more clearly now because this was the second time I had watched it. I missed Kim Bodnia at first because he had almost formed a professional relationship with Saga, but Henrik was an excellent replacement. We learnt more about Saga and her troubled background, and she and Henrik are a good team. As always, there are many twists and turns, and it was good to see Nicholas Bro in the series. He is a fine actor. Many viewers regard Saga as annoying and odd, and wonder about her position in the police force, but she is dogged, dedicated and intuitive. Her undiagnosed (?) Asperger's syndrome is very well portrayed. The series ended on a cliff hanger, so roll on series four!

I just love Saga, so this was always going to be a five star review. I remember at the end of last season how disappointing it was to wait for over a year for season three, but now it's here and it's as good as ever. Now that Martin's banged up, Saga gets a new Danish partner, who at first seems just like an older version of her, then things quickly start to disintegrate and the show picks up momentum from episode one. This series there's more information about Saga's past family life and as ever, you just want to give her a cuddle and tell her everything will be alright. The good news is that she's as blunt as ever in this series, in an utterly endearing and refreshing way. The other characters are of course secondary, but there's a lot going on in this series, with people coming out of the woodwork all over. Strangely, I started to get confused by the dark haired girls, as they started to look the same to me. And again, we have over another year until the next one, assuming there is one, but I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

Weird Scandinavian police officers with weird Scandinavian sexual proclivities chasing even weirder Scandinavian murderers on a totally flat landscape. I enjoyed it and the main lady police officer is quite likeable in a weird sort of a way.

Sofia Helin must be one of the best actresses in the world.Her ability to subsume herself into the character of Saga is indeed remarkable and while I understand that she wishes to perform a wider range of roles,even in English,she must not abandon this character,She has made Saga her own as surely as Chaplin created 'The Tramp' and Tati 'Mr Hulot'.. To abandon such a character to precipitately[or be forced to] is unwise.We are seeing new personal depths to this series,new characters and even new insights into the Danes and the Swedes . There is scope for another fine plotline,maybe even including a contribution by Martin to help clear Saga.And there is even the chance of a manner of personal happiness for Saga as her understanding of person issues developes.I cannot get enough of this series.

A copy of Bridge 3 was sent to me in Canada from the UK since it was not available in North America. I had to see it on a player that plays Euro DVD's so some of the quality was lost. Not the fault of the DVD. I found it an amazing series. It expanded and enhanced the earlier two series. It was gripping, edgy and never gave you time to relax. I liked the new character Henrik. Saga ( Sofia Helin ) was of course brilliant but this time under attack from several fronts and vulnerable. Sofia Helin rates as a person I would like to hear speak live. Copenhagen / Malmo are still my favourite cities but luckily the series stays away from touristy venues. I await a series4?

The series just keeps getting better and better. The actors are brilliant and bring the characters to life and make them believable. I just can't wait to get more Nordic drama. Saga is amazing and the actress who portrays her is too. Loved her character from the very beginning.

i've always loved swedish films and tv; i bought a pal player to watch just this show, all 3 seasons; i must admit i'm not upset this will be the final season, according to the bonus material; or at least not for the foreseeable future; it all comes down to serial killings; i'm tired of serial killers, weary of cell phones being a major part of the show; everyone in sweden must be wealthy; no matter how clever they make it, it's genius serial killers w/ grudges; and getting more and more clever and gruesome w/ how they go about it... having said this if this sort of thing doesn't bother you it's still a great show...no regrets in buying it; there's still history they could have explained, but didn't; a bit disappointed there are only 10 shows on 4 discs; but it's a good one i'll watch again someday...regards.

Serie originale, diversa dalle solite serie americane con supereroi, superpoliziotti, supertutto. Veramente bello ! Viste le tre stagioni e tutte meritano. Unico neo... non è per tutti perchè non c'è il sottotitolo in italiano. Peranto a meno di sapere danese e/o svedese, bisogna saper l'inglese per i sottotitoli

Fast shipping! Great Service! A++ Highly recommended!

Une série vraiment captivante avec une intrigue bien ficelée et surtout d'excellents comédiens. On devient vite accro à cette série que je recommande à 200%

Thoroughly enjoyed this series (even though one has to speed-read the sub-titles)

This is the first disc that didn't initially run on my Blu-Ray player, which is factory set to multi region. I'm glad I saved the documentation for the LG Model BP175, because there was an insert that gave instructions for setting specific regions. After following the instructions the movie started. It looks and sounds great!
