For frihed og ret

The concept of civic freedom does not quite fill out the role as the primary player in this film. Many top class actors and actresses of the time star in this film, but unfortunately it is still a hopelessly boring film.

The story is basically that of the road to democracy in Denmark. Political prisoners, the middle classes and the kings all contribute to the story, but it lacks passion and coherence. Capturing more than ten years of political turbulence within the time frame of a feature film and maintaining the main thread apparently failed the writers and the director of this film.
