I am speechless. This movie is beyond good. It is the epitome of everything that I like about film - a movie that rivals American Beauty, Eternal Sunshine, and Mulholland Drive for artistic masterpiece of the last 10 years. It is a CRIME that this movie is only playing in one theater in New York City. I cannot remember the last time I was this entranced by a film, and in a way I feel lucky that I had the honor of being one of six people in a small theater in the Village watching this. Beautiful, dark, enigmatic, mysterious, erotic, intense, tragic, Symmetric. Perfection.

Hm, so i can't write in danish? To bad, since no one else will watch this movie, not with that title anyway. I doubt many Danes will see it either. Only those who think they are intellectual and cultural when they watch it. In plane:This movie sucks! Just a lot of violence in a package of pseudo-intellectual nonsense. To make it look interesting there is a lot fast clips and jumps in time. That really doesn't make it better.The story is full of hints and effects from other films, and the morale is being close to be a cliché. It seems to be a everlasting theme for danish artists to confront the audience with the boring mediocre surburban life they supposable are living. That is truly boring, just like this film.

This movie is in my opinion a great leap forward for Danish Film.The many different levels it works on simultaneously - seem to encapsulate the feeling of someone being in way too deep and over his head while not being able to untangle himself from something dangerous, exciting and alluring.The film proficiently portrays how making one split-second decision can take you in to increasingly deeper and more serious waters - pushing you to make choices about your life you never knew you dared.The acting is superb, especially the head first passionate plunge of the relationship between Rebecka Hemse and Anders W. Berthelsen juxtaposed with the secure home-life that Mette (Charlotte Fich) provides, represents and desperately fights to uphold.The editing and pace of the film grips, moves and pushes you into all sorts of different reactions and places, while the gorgeous visual palette of the cinematography is second to none in my opinion. Dan Laustsen must be a member of the absolute elite working in Europe today.I throughly enjoyed this film, and would not hesitate in recommending it to any moviegoers out there who enjoy being challenged, moved and thought-provoked when taking in a film.Go see it!!

Ohh my god.. i think this is one of the best danish movie since "accused" and "adams apples".... This movie was exiting and i love Anders w. Bertelsen and Nikolaj lie Kaas.... AND Special I REALLY LOVE DEJAN CUKIC!! The 3 greatest actors in Denmark! I also think that Ole Bornedal did an amazing job with this movie.. it is so much better then "the temp".. the girls performances in the movie are also good.. but its Anders who really lead this movie.. in the beginning the movie is funny, but then it change, and suddenly it is this exiting thriller, an you almost forget to breath.. you really think about it after you have left the theater.. and you just can't get it out of your head. I really recommend this movie.. :D
