Beck: The Last Day

2016 · 88 min

A taut, grey procedural that moves fast and keeps the pressure on, with little warmth and a steady sense of dread.

Jörgen Bergmark
Genres
Thriller, Crime, Drama
Starring
Peter Haber, Kristofer Hivju, Måns Nathanaelson
Overview
Two traffic officers on a quiet morning shift try to stop a car for speeding. When the car finally pulls over, the driver gets out and shoots at them, killing one of the officers in cold blood. A national alert is issued and an extensive search for the ruthless killer begins, with the Beck group at the lead. Neither the officer’s shocked and wounded colleague nor any of the witnesses have seen anything helpful to the police. Finally, they find the car registration number using a surveillance camera. But, when they enter the car owner’s apartment, they find him shot to death. The first day of summer is a long one for the Beck group, as the killer has more victims on his list.
