El viaje

Don't think it's really a horror movie.

It's actually more like an excellent, very dark humour comedy !

Very good casting !

Love the Norwegian countryside chalet location.

Good screenplay !

Lisa and Lars have been going through a rough patch in their marriage. They decide to spend some time together at Lars's father's lakeside cabin to patch things up... except that neither intends to do that; they each plan to murder the other for the insurance money! It won't be as easy as either of them think with each gaining the upper hand at times. Then a treat emerges that endangers both of them; Petter, Dave and Roy, a trio of escaped killers were hiding in the attic and now plan to do unpleasant things to Lisa and Lars. Things are about to get nasty.

If you like your comedy pitch black then this is for you. The plot may not have great depth but serves to first put the leads at each other's throats before introducing a threat to them both. The earlier scenes in the cabin are laugh out loud funny. This means when the unpleasantness in the basement starts it is quite a shock as it threatens to go into 'Straw Dogs' territory. The humour does return; much of it at the same time as we witness wince inducing violence. The various weapons employed are quite original as well as guaranteeing a lot of gory damage. The cast is solid; most obviously Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie as Lisa and Lars respectively. The setting was great; scenic and remote enough to mean we can believe the activities won't be seen or heard by others. Overall I'd definitely recommend this to fans of gory comedies; it was even better than I'd hoped.

These comments are based on watching the film in Norwegian with English subtitles.

As someone who is not a huge fan of violence and gore I have to say that I was quite entertained with this crazy a** movie. The idea is so crazy it actually works! Obviously it's not a realistic movie but there's a lot of action and once you start watching it, it's hard to stop. Noomi Rapace is a very talented actress. She is doing an excellent job here!

If you enjoy dark humor, action movies and lots of violence and gore this movie is for you!

I wasn't so sure after the first scene seemed pretty cheesy..,and i nearly ditched the movie. But glad I didn't. A cool rollercoaster ride as a married couple with a grudge try to kill each other. The various characters that came along were an added boost in the second half. All around a fun gory movie.

This Movie from Start to Finish is on point, Acting is brilliant and the characterization is perfect.

The entertainment quotient is so high and there is not even a single dull moment in this 100mins Movie.

The Dark Humour and the Background score go so well together and this is the first time I laughed when blood went splattering all over in the movie.
