The Last Client

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.

But still so many good drama movies have been made in the past. This is just a run-of-the-mill drama movie with psychological elements. The movie has an important message and the way the message is delivered is absolutely riveting.

I have seen plenty of drama movies in my life. I have seen psychological thriller movies like The Silence Of The Lambs, Copycat 1995, Bone Daddy 1998, The Bone Collector 1999, Seven 1995 among many others.

So does this movie deliver anything new compared to the ones I've mentioned. Yes and no. It questions morality and responsibility two important facets of society as a whole. Those expecting just a dark thriller or a straight-up serial killer movie will be disappointed. The movie isn't even based on a real-life serial killer like Bundy, Dahmer or Gacy.

Plot: The intense relationship between a psychotherapist(Sussane Hartmann played by actress Signe Egholm Olsen) and her dangerous new client(Mark Zidenius played by the actor Anton Hjejle). Soon Sussane will be drawn into Mark's deadly psychological game that he has pre-planned. Watch the movie to find out what happens in the end...

So this is more akin to a social drama will solid psychological elements woven into it. Does the film deserve an award, like so many people are clamoring for it? Let time tell...

My instant pick to watch tagged as an underdog turned out to be a monster,A brilliant piece of cinema in every aspect... Be it a hour glass session, luxurious office space or an finest atmospheric conditions in climax one could crave for a perfect cinema elements.... Take a bow for Anders klarlund for keeping u strangled for nearly 1 1/2 hrs tight session with his twisty screenplay that makes u subliminally guilt and shrink u with a crystal clear screenplay... Signe Olsen and Anton duo strikes instantly with their weird and methodical performance...can't review for more coz this movie speaks a lot to connect u when u watch it making u to crave for more cinema to experience....

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.
