This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
if this was an American movie, I probably would have been thinking "please." but it's not , and I didn't. stellan skarsgard is a father out for justice, when his son is found dead from a drug overdose. stellan's character, nils, knows his son was not a drug addict. the policeman tells him that all parents say the same thing. nils finds a friend of his son, who tells him the truth of what happened,. this sets him off on his quest for revenge. I went to see this film because I have seen a lot of stellan's work and he's usually pretty good. when nils tells his brother what his plan is, his brother tells him that he couldn't kill anyone. that is the paradox here. nils is a nice guy, just don't get him angry. like the hulk. the end is wobbly and way over the top, but hey, who isn't. bottom line-quinton Tarantino in Norway. go.
Serbian criminals, Swedish criminals, Norwegian bad guys, Albanian bad guys; it is all here in this hilarious Tarantino inspired Swedish crime drama. A young man is killed but his death is ruled an overdose, and thus begins a wild revenge thriller. The boys father takes it upon himself to track down and kill his son's murderers. The guy drives a giant snow plow, clearing massive amounts of snow while at the same time turning into Charles Bronson's character in Death Wish; which is referenced in this clever script. Any writer who can work the cereal Fruit Loops into dialogue between the main villain and his baby mama and ex girlfriend gains my highest respect. The film combines the best aspects of Fargo and Reservoir Dogs with a great cast and enough tongue-in-cheek humor to make this one of the ten best movies of the year.
First Headhunters, now this.. The films that keep coming out of Scandinavia, and in particular Norway, are hard to beat. Headhunters was most definitely one of my favourites of last years and this is also very high on the list.For me it's the (fairly) unknown actors, the absolutely shameless and inventive humor and I guess that beautiful landscape. And of course the great, very well known, Stellan Skarsgard for whom this seems like it's especially made for. He is perfect and such a great character that you will be rooting for him long after the film is finished. He makes the film, but it probably would have worked with another actor as well, as the story is so original and highly entertaining. Absolutely loved it and can't wait to see it again. Hollywood: HANDS OFF 8/10
Well first of all let me say that I certainly did enjoy this movie. What I don't understand is the fact that some people consider it as a funny crime comedy. Maybe it's because I don't understand the language that I missed some subtle humor or so, I don't know, but the fact is that I for sure didn't laugh once with this movie. The story might not be very original but the actors all did a great job so I can't complain about that. Stellan Skarsgård showed us again that he is a good actor. The story is just another normal citizen searching for revenge after the death of his kid. All in all I thought it was well played and filmed with nice nature shots as well.
