Ser du månen, Daniel

I didn't know the story of Daniel going into this and boy was i filled with surprised and disturbing images rodof the senseless brutality of isis. Do yourself a favour, share this movie with your friends because the world needs to know.

Esben Smed is performing extremely well and strong in the role as Daniel. Fantastic dramatisation of actual events.

'Ser Du Månen Daniel' is a Danish drama film based on the true story of Danish photographer Daniel Rye who was held hostage for 398 days by the terrorist organization ISIS in Syria. The movie follows Daniel's struggle for survival, his friendship with American journalist James Foley, and his family's fear back home in Denmark that he may never return.

The film is directed by the duo of Niels Arden Oplev (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) and Anders W. Berthelsen, and stars Esben Smed as the titular character. Other major characters in the movie include the American journalist James Foley, played by Toby Kebbell, and the Danish hostage negotiator Arthur, played by Anders Heinrichsen.

The acting in the film is of high quality, with Esben Smed delivering a powerful performance as Daniel Rye. However, some scenes are graphic and hard to watch, but they drive the story forward and don't feel like cheap emotional shots at the audience.

Overall, 'Ser Du Månen Daniel' is an exciting and well-made film, although it deals with a subject matter that may not be everyone's cup of tea. The movie provides a nuanced perspective on the complex themes of Islamic wars and the interaction between refugees and the West, avoiding the simplistic and polemic approach that often characterizes such movies.

This won't be an easy watch, in fact, some scenes are just too horrifying to even watch, because we know what happens to some of the poor souls who are held hostage with Daniel. I still cannot comprehend how humans can be so horrible to their fellow man, I suppose that is the point, they saw them as subhuman purely based on their nationality.

This film is excellently acted, the lead actor who plays Daniel is just superb, you can feel every single emotion, you can feel the terror, the hopelessness.

It's one of those films that will stay with you long after, I wonder how one would go on living having gone through such trauma but they do, thankfully, and live to tell the world what happened.

Watch this film.

Its a movie for grown up adults. Even though its contain some kind of actionscenes, its a drama.
