Featured reviews
I never imagined he could reach such a tall level of boring. Good background music, it's unfortunately totally without timing.
Very poor movie lines.
Poor script. In all, very weak. Without an educational touch, without spirit, without any imagination.
A kid from elementary school could have written a better script.
Basically, nothing much happens in the first 70 minutes, and what little happens in the last 35 is totally forgettable and uninspired. Not an horror, not a thriller, not a drama, but rather a failed attempt at each of those.
Don't waste your time.
I kept expecting something exciting to happen, but it never did. Throughout this movie, there is a constant and slightly underwhelming pace, with just enough tiny spikes of thrill to keep you watching and expecting more, only to be disappointed when the scene changes after absolutely nothing having happened.
Nearing the end, the movie finally introduces fighting and, lo and behold, it feels fake and staged. A few characters have sudden changes of heart and make nonsensical decisions.
The movie ends with such a lame twist, that it made me feel bad after wasting so much time on it.

I hesitated before watching since I read some reviews that it was boring, and yes it is a different start than we are used to from Hollywood, but like a old good piece of literature it takes time to dive into the landscape and the plot, but hey what a reward!
Its not a typical action or horror movie, the filmmakers have created their own thing and its working and its beautiful. Its neither predictable or to much and leave you with a sense of authenticity. You can tell the filmmakers are rooted in Swedish old culture and history, by the characters, props, music and the dialogue that said just enough. I felt it was a piece of art, with the pictures, sound environment and soundtrack weaving together so well I want to go back and just enjoy it again, this is so true, especially the music I will look up and see if I can listen on spotify. Thats the power of good cinema! I hope ot gets many rewards and that we'll see more of this kind of filmmaking with filmmakers really daring to go their own path not following a certain pattern or formula of success. Big applause!

The movie took a lot of time to start the plot, that makes the movie very boring.
I expect better twist, but unfortunately it's very old common story.
Not bad movie, you may be love it if you have enough patience.
