Operation Schwarze Krabbe

This movie's cinematography and vfx were top notch. The environments they were in, the action scenes, etc... This could of been great, but the writers totally screwed this one up. So many plot holes, so many unanswered questions, and characters that were hard to connect with because you have no idea who they really are.

I held off watching this until there were no better options due to the low ratings and reviews, so I didn't have high expectations for this Swede film. But wow was I ever impressed, especially when I found out this was Sweden's music-video maker Adam Berg's first full length feature film as writer and director.

The story was excellent and refreshingly non-Hollywoodish. Some critics felt lost with the timeline changes; they couldn't have been any better! Sure we all wanted some more details to the back-stories, but considering Berg's 114 min well-paced story had non stop edge-of-your-seat action and suspense, I can see how it'd be hard to add more in. I wanted much more story from this little gem and it easily would've held my attention even if it was 3+ hours long.

For that matter, Netflix should make this into a mini-series - it was that good! And it wasn't just a good story, but Berg's directing was perfect, and could easily shame some seasoned directors films that have come out lately. The cinematography was perfection, and the sets, locations and all visuals were stunning. Even the score - especially for an international B-type, film was spot on. All casting and performances were excellent, especially Noomi Rapace, who nailed her role.

Mad props and respect to Berg and Netflix for giving us this little gem. I can't wait to see what Berg comes up with next. So ignore the negative reviews, this is one of the best films for its genre I've seen in years. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

I get it. Why so many people seem disappointed. No. It's not a BIG hollywood production. And, as some have pointed out, it's dark and bleak. But it's a decent story well told and, in my book/opinion, that deserves at least a 7.

Sure there are better, similary movies, but...the one thing i was disappointed by was that it seems to falsely represent itself as a 'post apocalyptic' story when that isn't the case. It might GET to be the case, but...not throughout most of the film. So really, it's more an action adventure/war type movie.

The acting was convincing. Rapace and her costars pulling off their roles.

Well. My minimum character limit has been met, so...d-d-d-dat's all folks. Cue the music.

Pretty decent movie, the plot is rather original and intriguing. The setup and scenes was nice and realistic, the acting wasn't overacted and convincing. The actions and intensity were just fine the keeps the story interesting, which was not any boring as the reviewers wrongly suggests, it's entertaining enough for the length of two hours. Don't understand the low raters, maybe coz it's not in english? Or a superhero movie with non stop guns blazing actions by disney, or other big studios that pays for fake reviews? A lot of recent netflix movies were underrated, and honestly this deserves a 6+, which is better than a lot of overrated movies out there.

Watchable for its amazing sets/locations and good action scenes.

The actual story or plot eluded me unfortunately. Hence I couldn't understand the key protagonists intentions nor motivations. Completely unrelatable.

Sort of ok if you accept that. 😝
