6.7 / 10
Translated from swedish: A plot that feels too constructed and implausible, with dialogue that occasionally makes us chuckle in resignation. But by all means, it's more than acceptable everyday entertainment, featuring some tough characters and good action scenes.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: "Lioness" manages to maintain the suspense throughout the series. By allowing the characters to be multidimensional, it also adds more aspects to the terrorism question, where the focus ultimately lands on the fact that history isn't necessarily changed solely by removing a threat.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: At first, it may seem like the series primarily wants to tell the story of extremely professional individuals desperately trying to piece together their lives, but in the later episodes, questions about the greater common good and what everything is truly worth emerge as well. Complications surrounding what you're actually doing, why you're doing it, and how the world is affected by it.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: It quickly becomes tiresome to hear the repeated swearing and cold talk. It's much more captivating to follow Cruz's budding facade of friendship with the terrorist financier's daughter.

1. Ljud & Bild
Translated from swedish: The second part of Sheridan's spy series is more densely packed, relevant, intense, and powerfully authentic.
