Title: Occupied
Review: Intense, dark and frightening Norwegian series (sub-titles) about that country’s occupation by Russia over energy resources. Paints a dismal picture of the world on multi-national intrigue and the underbelly of international politics. The portrait of the Russia is beyond bleak. I thought the first two season were quite dynamic but he third (and seemed like, last) season, felt chaotic to me and without clear direction. The end was appalling…we can only hope this kind of stuff is more fantasy than reality.
