Boundless (2024)
6/10
Weakest of the series
3 May 2024
Department Q is one of my favourite series and it has been almost 11 years since The Keeper of Lost Causes was released. Hanging Girl / Boundless is the sixth movie adaptation of Jussi Olsen Adele's books. I need to be honest I loved the first four adaptations with Nikolaj Lie Kaas and Fares Fares. The fifth adaptation was with a different cast and Ulrich Thomsen and Zaki Youssef became the main cast. For me the fifth movie (Marco Effect) was good with Thomsen and Youssef. However, I cannot say the same for Hanging Girl / Boundless. The cast changed again Thomsen is with Afshin Firouzi and I can tell you that he doesn't fit into the role of Detective Assad. Nevertheless, Ulrich Thomsen is a great actor and you like watching him as Detective Carl Mørck and that was the only reason why I was able to finish this episode. The ending was easily guessable and there are plot holes. The acting is fine but there are unlogical scenes in particular at the ending. In short, I can tell you that this is weakest episode among all 6 Department Q movies. Still give it a try if you love the series. I give 6 out of 10 points.
