Season 2 Review: The pace is still very slow, with casual conversations lingering on, and the narrative can be a little difficult to keep track of with so many characters living such separate lives. But there’s always a fantastic amount of acting talent on display in the series, and at its core it’s really just about a small town. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Fortitude has a lot going for it, but it lacks a unifying focus or center of gravity. Scenes seem slapped together without much forethought and with little connective tissue. Read full review
