Pyramiden

A small plane is shot down over Sweden and the police, with Kurt Wallander as an investigator, is put on the case. He soon discovers that people from his past have resurfaced and that he might finally get a chance to make things right.

Over the years I have watched a lot of Wallander movies, some really good ones and others not so good. Pyramiden is decent addition to the Wallander movies, with an interesting story and plot. The movie contains several flashbacks to Wallanders younger days when he had just joined the police. I liked that we get to learn more about him and his past. The story nicely fits into this and evolves as the movie progresses.

Another cool element of the movie is the use of remotely detonated bombs in various ways. It adds freshness to the otherwise retold plot.

Rolf Lassgård is his usual self, looking tired and thoughtful, but this is the way we have come to know Kurt Wallander so this is not a problem. The rest of the cast all perform as expected. Pyramiden is not a masterpiece, but if you are a dog for mysteries and crime solving you will find this Wallander movie quite entertaining. 7/10
