Klienten

No pun intended - when it comes to psychological stuff, there are always things to consider. And thrillers have to consider even more things - to make them work. Logically and internally and all that. Acting wise this is really good. I do wonder about the practice and how she ... or rather why she would conduct her business like that, but if she didn't we wouldn't have a movie ... and so many twists ahead of us.

I liked what this did and the low budget it has does not even - well it does not make much of a difference. The effects are good, the main location is the office obviously. And the script is tight - you can tell because of the dialog you hear. The actors are great in their respective roles. Watch it if you are into mysteries and thrillers that keep you guessing ... everything and anything goes ...

I would have liked to give 7.5 It's a very good movie, extremely intense though.

Due to its intensity and twists, I can understand why some viewers rated it much lower.

It's heavy.

However, if you are in the mood for an extremely powerful psychological thriller, then this is a gem !

Important to state that if you are looking for an average thriller, then it's not for you.

This movie is very, very intense.

The ending is brilliant.

Casting is excellent !

Really brilliant actors.

Although some scenes are absolutely gruesome this movie's main focus is on the psychological confrontation between the two protagonists.

Great plot twists. Very intelligent. Everything plausible. Things very hard to find in a movie these days. I'm not a psychologist but I felt like the way the therapy session developed had a very authentic feel but at the same time was exciting and interesting. It's a stark contrast with the average movie today that appears to target a 14 yr old audience.

People say that it's very gruesome and it does have some parts but much less than other movies,and it's only a few short scenes.

I don't usually like thrillers but it's because most are garbage and have huge flaws. Thrillers like this I could watch on a regular basis. The ending in particular was very good but there wasn't really a dull moment.

This little gem made me feel stupid, which is a good thing.

What starts off as a by-the-numbers thriller about a killer who visits a shrink to get some kind of closure, turns into something completely different by the end with a plot twist I didn't see coming, although there were several hints given throughout the first hour.

I am not going to spoil things here, but the build-up is just spot on. Cleverly written. We need more movies likes this.

Klienten positions itself as a psychological thriller, but ultimately fails to deliver on even its basic promises. The concept is unimaginative, the plot unfolds predictably, and the film seems content to recycle ideas from older, more successful thrillers-without adding any new perspective or depth.

Performances are flat and emotionally disengaged, which only amplifies the film's lack of tension. The script offers little character development, and the dialogue feels mechanical.

Director Anders Rønnow Klarlund shows flashes of competence, but not creativity. He remains stuck in the safe zone of "could have been great," never daring to take narrative or visual risks. The result is a film that lacks identity, avoiding both bold storytelling and stylistic flair.

The ending tries to echo genre classics, but instead lands as flat and uninspired-a pale imitation without substance.
