The Killing - Complete Season 3 - 3-DVD Box Set (Forbrydelsen (Forbrytelsen)) (The Killing - Complete Season 3) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - United Kingdom ] (2012)

If you like that "sit on the edge of your seat" suspense, you'll love this season 3. Oh my goodness does it get you on the edge of your chair but it keeps you there. We couldn't stop watching the episodes to see "who dunnit". Great acting, great plot, great story line. Just plain great all over the place!~~!

Series III is the best yet & the other two series were great. I loved Series III so much, I went back and watched Series I for a second time. It took a second viewing of Series I to gain a greater appreciation of the acting in "The Killing" and not just by the Lund. I highly recommend "The Killing." BTW, I tried watching the American version and it is unwatchable; so bad it is laughable. Hollywood should not try to remake successful Nordic Noir, it just shows how talentless and corporate Hollywood has become. I mean, how stupid do you have to be to not even be able to copy or perhaps slightly improve a proven formula?*Spoiler Alert*Great acting and direction in the final scene of Series III. You know she has a chance to make amends and move forward and be the person those important to her want her to be, but she cannot help herself, which is really who she is....

We had seen the American version of the Killing and decided to go ahead and buy a universal DVD player so that we could watch the original Danish version of the show. One of the best investments we have made in terms of entertainment! The Killing, Danish version, has 3 seasons and each one is gripping, haunting and exquisitely well made. The Killing, Danish version, falls in the category of Danish Noir film, and we are hooked. Other fantastic Danish series include The Bridge and The Eagle. Go ahead and invest in a universal DVD player, very inexpensive less than $75.00 on Amazon. This will open your viewing horizons to an entirely new level and if you start with the Danish version of the Killing, I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

Excellent program. I enjoyed the series very much. I have a international player so I can buy dvd's from outside my region. I highly recommend this set.

I have become quite attached to Sarah Lund and her partners. Extremely well acted, written, and very absorbing. Deep and suspenseful. Difficult to pace oneself in watching these because it is so engrossing you won't want to stop watching. Worth getting all three seasons. You'll need region 2 dvd player which I found for $40 on Amazon and possibly an adaptor plug for US if it doesn't come with one and you're good to go.

Really gripping. And it’s pretty easy to set your laptop to play DVDs from a different region (UK).

One of the best. Wish there was a 4

Fantastic series. The Scandinavian dramas produced currently have set the standard for series excellence for the rest of the world.

The sign of a good series to me is the feeling that I ought to go to bed but I want to watch just ONE more episode! And then I find it difficult to wait until the following day. I enjoyed the first two series very much, and this did not disappoint. The final episode was open ended and left me wondering what would happen. A pity that there was not another series. The plots and red herrings were interwoven very cleverly amongst the Government, big business and serious crime. I have watched most of the Nordic Noir series, and I recognise many of the actors from Borgen, The Bridge, Wallander and Unit One. I am surprised that some viewers gave it only one star, because I thought that it was up to the usual standard. I would have liked some bonus features on these DVDs.

Great cast,well filmed, gripping story,lots of plot twists & turns,the style of which were developed in the 1st 2 excellent series.Sofie is absolutely fabulous as we've come to expect,as is the supporting cast. Without spoiling things,just my view here,I hated the ending.Hated.It's original I suppose,& not at all obvious as the story evolves,,but no,I hated it.

I've been waiting to watch this third, and I believe final series for a while, finally got around to it, and rather regret it now.I thought 1 & 2 were excellent, and I enjoy watching the original production with subtitles, rather than some awful dubbing, or worse, some awful American remake!Anyway, this one proved to be disappointing, mainly because the ending was just terrible, like some afterthought...I'll say no more as I don't want to spoil it for others.The previous series seemed quite realistic from what I remember, but the murder of the prosecutor in this one was ridiculous. There was a reason that judicial hangings were very carefully performed (one hoped)...get the drop a little to short, and the condemned was left to slowly strangle, the neck failing to break. Get the drop a bit too long, and the condemned literally lost their head. In this series, the prosecutor is pushed from a rooftop, and drops what must be 60 feet, comes to a sudden stop, and is hanging as though Albert Pierrepoint himself had carried it out, and that with a rope which was so thin it would have acted like a cheesewire.Well that's all I'll say on this, a rather disappointing end to a very engaging drama, which in the previous series seemed far better than anything produced in Britain or elsewhere.I'll end on that point actually, to have a murder investigation spread out over so many episodes makes for far better drama. As much as I love our classics like Morse etc, they could have done so much better than having one crime, one episode, which has always been the way with most of them.I wouldn't intend my review to put anyone off watching this, just don't expect it to be quite up to the standard of the first two series, in my humble opinion.

Advance review. Have been hooked to the first 2 series on sky box sets and was gutted to find the 3rd missing from the set. I am perfectly sure this will be just as well received as the first two. The brits have taken this series to their hearts and adore Sarah Lund and her fluffy jumpers. I would love to see a 4th series of this pop up in years to come but as this dvd states its the final series, unless Sophie Grabôl ends up potless (which I doubt as for an untrained actress she's never been out of work) I can't see that happening. Prime shipping meant that its arrived before I've finished the s2 finale. Cheers.

I somehow had series 2 but couldn't find series 1 and 3 on DVD. The classic series is a keeper, a collector's dream. I don't even need to watch again (though I will).
