Review
Human
drama can hardly get more explosive and heartfelt than in this
Susanne Bier film, which is propelled forward by Anders Thomas
Jensen's artful script and intense, remarkable
performances by a great cast, but particularly Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
He plays a policeman who must try to save an infant from a junkie
couple while at the same time dealing with domestic problems
concerning a depressed wife and
some issues with their newborn baby. The ensuing events grip your
sense of ethics and shake it quite ferociously before leaving you to
pick up the pieces in co-operation (or sympathy) with
Coster-Waldau's character. This is timeless, pure filmmaking
of Bergmanesque proportions.
