Köld slóð

This is a colorless and unremarkable, slow, boring, and predictable movie. But the little horses and deers are a plus. However, you can see them in a zoo rather than wasting your time on this amateurish flop.

A reporter finds out that his father died under suspicious circumstances in a power plant located in the icy wilderness of Iceland. He goes undercover and lands a security job at the facility in order to solve the mystery.

Suspenseful and atmospheric thriller set in the beautiful icy wilderness of northern Iceland. The mystery is well written and has a few genuine surprises up it's sleeve. It's kinda Hollywood looking at times (the soundtrack especially) but that doesn't diminish the fact that this is a tight suspense ride with some cliffhanger scenes. It's well acted by veteran icelandic performers and production values are excellent.

I recommend people locating this one on DVD in the near future.

A reporter living in Reykjavik finds out that his father may have died under suspicious circumstances. He starts working in a power plant located in the arctic desert of Iceland and starts his little private investigation in order to solve the mystery of his fathers death.

This movie may be the best icelandic action movie since "Í skugga hrafnsins" by director Hrafn Gunnlaugsson. However, director Björn Brynjólfur has a long way to travel before he'll rise above the B-label standard he has earned himself with his earlier movies.

As to be expected, the light-work is horrible in this movie. Björn simply does not understand the fine line between artistic lighting and pure trash and should stick with B&W film. Handing Björn a colour film is just a waste of money.

The outward appearance of the movie is quite cheesy and amateurish. The slow, shaky, freehand pan-ing at the beginning of the film is absolutely hilarious.
