Naboer

'David Lynch-esque' in style, it is a dark, brooding tale of passion, as raw as meat and as brutal as a sledgehammer. Where it loses steam is the second act, when the movie turns slightly predictable, particularly to the ardent fans of this genre. They might even anticipate the twist in first few finutes flat, but not the twisted climax Noboer has in store as it's trump card. It is a highly recommended watch: For the apalling sex scene, and for the sheer dementedness of the closing shot.

I didn't expect anything from this (as I tend not to with Norwegian movies; I don't have much faith in them), but this is great. It can be either insanely disturbing or insanely hilarious, depending on what you want it to be. I chose to laugh my way through it and was left content and happy, but could easily have chosen to let myself freak out by it.

This movie effortlessly prooves that you really don't need millions of dollars to put together a film that keeps you on your toes. Well written, well played, another great low budget nordic movie. Really enjoyed it.

A quite bizarre and unsettling film. Despite some fairly striking scenes, the director largely exercises restraint in filming, which contributes to the atmosphere. There is definitely a Lynchian undercurrent here, and it probably won't be until the conclusion that you'll have a decent understanding of what has unfolded beforehand. A likeable and interesting slice of Nordic psychodrama.

Pozytywnie pokrecony film. Pozycja obowiazkowa dla fanow gatunku.

A disappointment from Sletaune, really enjoyed Budbringeren. It's decent, but I expected more.

A completely uncomfortable movie to sit through. It's also quite unbelievable which makes it a bit easier to watch. It's pretty easy to figure out what's going on but the great acting by the lead keeps things interesting and thrilling.

Pretty brutal and ugly psychosexual thriller, lifted by a compelling performance by Joner.
