MEDIA REVIEW

Like Christopher Nolan's hit film Tenet, there is no point in letting your attention wander while watching Traitor. What makes Traitor stand out is sound. The actors can be heard surprisingly clearly and at the same time the background music created by Mick Pedaja will not be lost. Ergo Kuld, who seems to be pulling on complex and psychological material as a director, is the new Nolan - just give him more money to blow up a plane and shut down Laagna Road for the whole summer, and this man may end up being better than Nolan.

MEDIA REVIEW

Decisions are not made immediately, but Vint is given space and time to consider his choices. It is always a good sign when a spy story character makes mistakes and difficult choices, so he is not a one-dimensional cartoon hero.

MEDIA REVIEW

The time spent watching Traitor is well spent and flies fast. In the end, you hope that maybe the first six parts won't be the last and the next season will come.
