Hamilton 2

But still a good movie nevertheless. It's just that the first movie set a higher standard and of course the sequel was going to be compared to that. Which also means, that the third movie (due in 2014 if all goes along nicely), will have a lesser burden to carry. Having said that, there is no need to watch the first movie to understand this one. Though if you're thinking about missing out on one of the movies, it'd be wise to watch the other one instead.

Hamilton reprises his role (not alone, there is other characters that are familiar from the first movie, without connecting them too much) and he does a good job. There's conspiracy, thrill and action in this movie and you will be entertained.

HAMILTON: BUT NOT IF IT CONCERNS YOUR DAUGHTER is a Swedish thriller, based on a popular novel character, and a follow-up to HAMILTON: IN THE INTEREST OF THE NATION. This is a lesser sequel in every respect, with a story that somehow manages to be more simplified and more complex at the same time; as well as that, it's not particularly suspenseful as a movie. Watching this you realise just how good the original film was.

Still, it's not all bad, and HAMILTON 2 certainly isn't a poor film by any means. The tale of international terrorism and political machinations is a well-written one, so it's just a shame than the central thriller plot is so basic. Hamilton goes around and questions suspects and then embarks on a mission to rescue his kidnapped goddaughter. That's all there is to it, and the ending in particular is oddly anti-climatic, leaving you wondering 'is that it?'

Fans will find the production values remain strong after the first movie, and the acting is also of a superior quality. I wouldn't have minded the basic storyline had it propped up some strong action scenes, but the action is very limited here and not particularly well shot by director Tobias Falk, who previously directed some BATTLE FRONT video games. However, Mikael Persbrandt is an engaging and charismatic screen presence, so it's a pity he doesn't have as much to get his teeth into as he did in the last film. Seba Mubarak also returns in support, and Frida Hallgren does good work as the crusading light. Watch out for cameoing British stars Steven Waddington, David Rintoul, and Cal MacAninch.

Since I'm a fan of the plot in the book "Men inte om det gäller din dotter" and I think that it more than well would be a really OK Hamilton-movie I got disappointed just five minutes into the movie. It has almost no resemblance what so ever with the original and it is so bad that I wonder if Guillou himself accepted the script. The last movie withs Persbrandt as Hamilton was good! I liked how the story was moved into todays world. But all the changes in this one is just horrific. I can see that if one watches this movie as a solitaire, it's OK. But still, you almost need to have read the decalogue about Hamilton to understand some of what happens. Actors performances is what makes my vote go from a minus 5 to a +2

This is an impressing Action-Movie from Sweden , the film displays suspense , action-packed , thriller , violent fights and is quite entertaining . A well done Swedish Action-Flic in old style , this "Hamilton 2" is a very entertaining and action-packed with full of suspense and violence . Mikael Persbrandt is nearly as good as other Hamiltons previously performed by Stellan Skarsgard and Peter Stormare . Here Hamilton/Mikael Persbrandt is forced to play by his own rules when his goddaughter is kidnapped by terrorists . Based on the novels by Jan Guillou , but the books are in fact better because of the many details given about the different secret services and political conspirations . It keeps the audience reminded of the fact that good & evil deeds depends on whom you are pulling for . A very different hero , who isn't a posterboy , but somebody you could easily mistake for a crook by his emaciated outer appearance . The picture in itself explores the difficult feelings of a relentless agent whose methods may be ugly , if even horrible and more or less suffering from previous family assassinations and a girlfriend. It's action with a nice twist , making it agreeable and interesting enough. The highlights of the film are the impressive beginning when a convoy is assaulted and a breathtaking final attack with fighting , pursuits and explosions . This is an acceptable sequel but it really lacks Guillou's humor and political commentary witch makes the movie seem a little monotone at times . It displays a colorful cinematography shot in Spanish exteriors , such as : La Calahorra, Castle La Calahorra, La Calahorra , Granada, Andalucía, Almeria, Andalucia, Spain, London, England, UK , Stockholms län, Sweden.

He follows leads to United Kingdom and finds where Nathalie is and that he should not rely on his secret service that is compromised. He summons Mouna Al Fathar (Saba Mubarak), Nathalie's father Pierre Tanguy (Reuben Sallmander), who was a member of the French Foreign Legion and the mercenary Patrik Wärnstrand (Peter Eggers) to rescue Nathalie from the fortress of the terrorists.

"Men inte om det gäller din dotter", a.k.a."Agent Hamilton: But Not If It Concerns Your Daughter", is another great Swedish action movie with the character Carl Hamilton. The plot follows the action of 007 or other good spy movies and the only problem is the language. If you have not seen this movie yet, please be advised that it is worthwhile watching. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Agente H - Missão Resgate" ("Agent H - Rescue Mission")
