Valhalla awaits
With open arms and singing and all that is necessary. So no pun intended - the movie is from Denmark and it is able to mix comedy and violence quite ... well I would argue perfectly. I understand if for some (more sensible and sensitive souls) this feels wrong ... especially considering that the movie does not take any prisoners (though it does literally in one case with one individual and she is treated quite harshly to say the least).
The main character (next to Mads Mikkelsen) is ... quite annoying ... especially his insistence on not giving in and just accepting his brother ... but this also leads to a lot of comedic moments. Again you have to suspend your disbelief and just allow them to make "mistakes".
The movie is inventive enough to be enjoyable ... there may be some lines crossed .. actually not just maybe ... they are crossed! Be aware and don't be offended .. or rather do not watch if you know you can't deal with this being as dark humored as possible ... that makes it different ... and unique (and I would argue good, but that is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?).
Great performances, great twists and dialog ... and just as mad(s) as it can get ...
