Nicoline, an experienced psychologist, starts a new job at a penal institution. She meets Idris, a sex offender who committed a series of grave crimes. After five years of treatment, he is about to go on his first unaccompanied probation. His team of practitioners are enthusiastic about his development but newcomer Nicoline does not trust him and tries to push his probation.

A power play emerges between the two and Nicoline, in spite of her knowledge and experience, lets herself be trapped completely.

boring and not deserving belief

This film is one of the 2020 filmbox of de Volkskrant. Out of 11 films this movie is rated by us at the lowest point 5. Bad audibly sound - for us - and a not realistic plot, poor dialogues and indeed a predictable end. However we enjoyed the wide shots which is in favour of our overview. Acting must have been difficult with such a screenplay to follow.

Who Rapes Whom?

Starring Carice van Houten (Melisandre on the HBO television series "Game of Thrones") and Marwan Kenzari (Jafar on the 2019 "Aladdin"), "Instinct" has its strengths and weaknesses. The film boasts powerful storyline delving into the complexities of human nature, the dynamics of relationships, and intense drama. Despite the fact that it sometimes resorts to heavy-handed symbolism, leaving some aspects feeling underdeveloped, it raises serious questions about identity and desire. The absence of genuinely honest characters, including a lack of trust even in therapists, is what distinguishes this film, elevating it above its minor flaws.

ambiguity as virtue

Vulnerability, manipulation, loneliness, fascination of evil and a not perfect but far to be bad story. A psychologist, a sexual predator behind the bars and a relation giving more its ambiguity than explanations. Good acting, fair accents and good kick to reflect about situations and...instinct. The good point , obvious Carice van Houtten and the special aspect - the relation of Nicoline with her mother.

Unsettlingly enjoyable

Came to see the film because of the great actors and the exciting trailer. It was actually a nice and easy first half of the film. The acting is really really good. After a while I was wondering: who is more crazy, he or she? Unfortunately their issues stayed a bit on the surface, it was not clear what the origin was. However, their emotional state about it was unmistakable and the acting on point. When the film ended, I was just a bit in shock and left with a lot of questions. But I assume that was how it is meant to be. Overall, a very good movie with some distressing, somewhat creepy elements. Worth watching!!!

Worth seeing but missed a bit of depth

Missed some Interaction and depth. Acting it self was strong.

Trivia
Carice Van Houten said working on Game of Thrones (2011) turned her off of filming nude scenes and refuses to do them anymore, especially in the wake of the #MeToo movement. She told Insider that she's brought the lesson she learned to her other projects, including Instinct. She said she and director Halina Reijn made it into a dogma where they are done with nudity. "We don't need to show nudity to create intimacy, we don't need to see breasts."

Errores
(at around 54 min) When Idris and Nicoline are in the sand dunes, Idris stands up to take a piss. He clearly urinates against the wind, as seen by the direction of the sand blowing towards him across the dune surface. No sane man would ever do this, as one runs a high risk of getting urine on your shoes or trousers.
