"We Come in Peace" as the title translates from Swedish is a sci fi thriller but so far, I'm not convinced. The biggest problem with this show, as is often the case these days, is the story crudely shoe horns its characters actions and narrative in a particular direction, to achieve a certain outcome. The actions of one of the main characters, a female scientist who has made a discovery about the alien blob, floating over Stockholm, are designed to instil a sense of frustrated tension in the audience. I get that. Yet her behaviour make little rational sense. Rather than showing her remarkable discovery, that quite literally speaks for itself, to police who are all over the city and getting them to quickly contact authorities for her and/or simply posting it on social media, so she can be contacted in turn, she instead resorts to a series of both pedestrian (waiting in a cue of over 200 people on her phone) and elaborate measures, including stealing scientific equipment, to try and inform the powers that be, before they tragically misinterpret the blobs allegedly benign, intentions. The result feels unrealistic and frankly, contrived. Its a shame too, because its a great cast including actor Fares Fares, who I have a lot of time for, after seeing his performance in the Jussi Adler-Olsen Carl Morck series of crime thrillers films. The idea is an interesting one as well, with a alien life form, that is far removed from anything we might expect. In summary, failing to ascribe intelligent actions to allegedly intelligent people can quickly undermine any credibility a serious series might have to offer. Regrettably, such is the case with "We Come in Peace". A bland watch in many respects.
