Wounds (2019)
Weird - disturbing
Not a typical horror movie. Slow and moody - without any typical clichea jump scares - GOOD THING! All other horror movies use the same recepie.
This is more like psychologic thriller horror film. Liked the mood, liked the weird sound and music.
En kort en lang (2001)
What is the chance that both the director and writer get kidnapped at the end?
This movie use the Hollywood recipe how to do a romantic holiday movie. At the start, I though that this has something else, some kind of Nordic irony to the whole genre. The script had a lot of these ironic and sarcastic views on the romantic story - the audience didn't know that the Mads Mikkelsen was a gay until quite a few minutes. Further on, I think the director, cinematographer and editor do a very good job. There's a bunch of minor, but important, details that I really appreciated. This is actually a good, funny and interesting movie....until I found out that it actually DID the whole f¤%#n Hollywood set phrase.
-----------spoiler------- The last 20 min was awful. It seems that the writer stopped breathing, and the hired some monkey from the Hollywood film school to finish it...yes the actually ripped the movie apart and executed it while the audience couldn't do a thing about it. How can you underestimate people like that? Had the writer NOT written an end for it? Why the hell does Mads Mikkelsen's character run back? On a bloody horse? Nothing indicated that he would get back to his fiancée! A happy ending? This was an awful ending. This is why Dannish (and Scandinavian films generally) fails to make it big....they follow the same boring footsteps as all the wanna be film-makers. Do your thing! This is Europe! The director is the king here! Not the producer! If the producer f#¤s you up, it's probably a Hollyowood one.
A movie that goes from a 8-9 to 1 because of the the last 20 min...need I say more. I'm frustrated that I spent one and a half hour of my life + ten minutes writing this comment.
