Shorta

Joint writers and directors Hviid and Olholm gave us a beautifully shot film with excellent cinematography, but fell short in the screenplay, especially the ending that made it seem they ran out of money.

The conceptual story, although not original, was great, especially their parable about walking a mile in someone else's shoes. But the screenplay felt dragged out with too many unnecessary scenes, giving the 108 min runtime a feel of too much filler for the little substance it gave us. This film should've been cut down to about 80-90 mins max.

What really bothered me was the lack of some type of ending. I get that many thrillers will leave the ending up to the viewers imagination, but for the investment made following the characters around for 108 mins, and with more than one conflict needing some type of resolution, chopping the ending to, well, not really any ending, made it feel like they ran out of time and or/money. For that, I automatically took off one star.

The casting and performances were great, and the score was on point. So overall it was a decent one time watch, and I'd recommend it if you're a fan of this genre, but I wouldn't see it again. It's certainly no 10/10, but also not worthy of all the 1's from the wannabe critics - it was shot and directed too well, and that alone deserves at least a 4. So it's a 7/10 from me, but would've been at least an 8 if the writing was tighter with... a proper ending.

Feeling a but misled by the trailer that shows a very intense police hunt in a danish suburb. The movie also starts off like this, but the intensity quickly slows down and there is a lot of waiting, slow talking and the police officers just hiding from the riot. Great acting from the two police officers though and the directing and everything felt top notch.

Overall a pretty good police drama, with moments of action. We were two couples watching it together at home and fifty percent of us were sleeping half way in the movie.

Thumbs up. First og all great performance by everyone. And second the action is Way better this time for Danish Movie standards, and besides the Movie gets quite a few things right, such as cops Can be bad, and a Young man with Dark skin Can be harrassed, and the system is not flawless, and people do change when they come close to the reality, and some make mistakes and regrets Them. So glad that they showed these things from different angels, and Got Them spot on. Well done.

The movie suffers from a story that is just too far from reality to be believable. The main plot is interesting, but I really struggled to believe the characters and the details in the story. It tries to portray a somewhat political message without succeeding and it ends up just being too predictable.

I am one of those who are pretty tired of fake reviews. No need to make fake reviews about this movie, it's a pretty good movie without the "over the top" reviews made by some random crew or what ever.

It's not Judge Dredd (as some said) and it's not pumping action from start till end (also said) but it's a good solid quality Danish movie. A bit of a gangster feel, but not much really. If this had been an American movie, it would have been just another typical cop movie. But being a Danish movie, it's not like that and it feels a bit deeper.

You can read all about what it's about, so skipping all that. I think it was a good pizza-weekend-movie and it wasn't boring. It had a good story and good acting all over. This is no big CGI movie, and more of a character and story building movie. A big relevant story these days. I believed in it.

I liked it, so did my buds. We agreed on it being entertaining enough and it kept us off the phone. But, one or two almost cracked. Just almost... There really isn't anything new about this movie, that we haven't seen before. But as I wrote over here, being Danish. it gave a different feel about it.

Worth checking out! Me and my friends ended up on a 7 out of 10
