GazerRise Fantastic!
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
mrdane-59948 I do not understand the low ratings for this movie, it is a typical Danish wild panic movie, it got a plot and it got plenty of laughs.Sure it is not compareable to the belowed 1976 version but it is still good and it deserves a better rating.
nzpedals Even with sub-titles. Set in a small-town with a big car dealership opposite a small workshop. Holger's. And his beautiful daughter. Near the end of the year they have a big party.A new guy wants to get a job there. There is a joint interview where all the candidates are together. Saves time and effort.Lots of great laughs. Lots of very good acting, with subtle glances instead of wordy stuff.Some very funny scenes as they all get a bit tipsy, Stella, who has a masochistic streak especially, and a manic bulldozer that crushes everything.
marabue A lot of great actors. Thats it! The movie is one of the worst ever made. Anyone praising this, must have some financial gain. Because it does not get worse than this. I have actually seen this twice, because I could not believe that it really was that crappy. But it is.This has to be the directors + produceres that complete ..... How the heck did they get this movie made. The director has made one other Lortefilm, Blå Mænd. which also has some of the similar problems.I am actually stunned, that they did not test screen this. They must have had a lot of fun making the movie, and forgotten to think about the audience. Because no one I know, likes this movie.
Babes-2 I was looking forward to having a couple of hours good laugh, and with the plot and the number of talented actors represented in this movie, how could I not? ...But I didn't. Far from. I don't think that either I, nor the friends watching the movie with me laughed even once. So disappointing.The lines were tacky, the actors mere shadows of their usual talented selves.I don't know what went wrong. I went to see the director's previous movie, "Blå Mænd" and found it to be refreshingly funny, but this one is JUST NOT FUNNY. It displays the kind of humor Danish movies were full of in the 60s and 70s, but even then they at least seemed to believe in what they were doing. This is not the case in this movie.One piece of advice: Save your money for something better!
