Let Go

This was far better then i excepted! Amazing performances by every actor! Truly phenomenal!

Regardless of what you think is right or wrong in relationships, you see in this film that different perspectives can be very variable in a relationship and that family dramas are extremely important to resolve as quickly as possible and blend in and understand each other!

This is both a funny, powerful, deep and heavy dramafilm to watch! Very intriguing and a far better drama then i thought it was gonna be!

It has some poorly made scenes and some of unrealistic aswell and the environment is pretty confusing at some moments, but all together this get pretty good and interesting.

Very well written!

Josephine Bornebusch does a amazing work in directing and acting!

A very thought provoking and moving film!

Feels very authentic!

I really recommend this!

In a time when technology is supposed to make our lives easier but often turns them upside down, this film masterfully conveys that the responsibilities we, as adults, must bear are not burdens or chains holding us back, but the true key to living a healthy and happy life. I congratulate the entire cast for delivering this message so skillfully in every scene, and especially Ms. Bornebush, whose Oscar-worthy performance, brilliant screenplay, and outstanding direction have resulted in a magnificent masterpiece. I'm also ashamed and saddened that this is the first time I've realized such an extraordinary talent.

Swedish director and actress Josephine Bornebusch offers us a raw family drama that touches our deepest fibers with a conventional film, but made with all possible sincerity.

The film takes us to an intense family drama in crisis and that little by little will be rediscovered in a harsh truth that changes all the perspectives of each member of this family. The director sets out to give us a sincere drama without limiting herself in any way, destroying relationships, destroying worlds and destroying realities, all of that handled with the subtlety of a very good director who also stars in her own script, which leads us to feel with all the intensity this drama that she offers us.

It is helped by a cast that is also committed, where Pål Sverre Hagen and Sigrid Johnson stand out. Each character has something to tell and something to face their own fears and regrets with, that intensity put into each scene is what captivates us as spectators and at the same time its director is intelligent in not risking anything improper, Bornebusch touches the conventional keys of how to conquer the spectator, but she does it in an authentic way and without looking for anything easy, she does it with a correct look at an intense drama that breaks you as it reaches its final climax where you sense that everything will break definitively.

We are faced with a sad, moving and deeply heartbreaking story that hides nothing and gives you a true story that keeps coming back to you as everything happens. The moments of happiness, especially well placed thanks to intelligent humor, are part of the dose of relief from a deep drama full of sadness and everything that allows you to experience a process of emotions and tears that break the deepest heart of any viewer.

A brave film that, in its well-used conventionality, manages to hit the nail on the head as one of the pleasant and saddest dramas of 2024. Its director continues to demonstrate her directing skills, but also her good work in front of the screen, an interesting proposal that is worth giving a chance to move you and enjoy life's blows.

But so much more. I prefer foreign films, so was drawn to this recommendation on NFLX. It started out as what I thought a peek into a neglected marriage, obviously because the husband was having an affair. With precision reveals, it becomes clearer what could be happening in this family's lives. So well written and executed by the writer, director and lead actress who is one and same person! Without giving away too much, this is a deep, authentic, visceral story that will stay with you long after viewing, as others have written here in the reviews. Why this isn't on everyone's radar as a MUST WATCH, is beyond me.

Josephine Bornebusch's Släpp taget excels in its deeply heartfelt depiction of familial complexities. With nuanced performances and authentic emotional beats, it draws viewers into the struggles and joys of reconnecting with loved ones. The film's sensitive approach to parenthood, sibling relationships, and personal growth leaves an indelible impact, often bringing audiences to tears.

However, the film ambitiously tackles an array of themes, occasionally risking a lack of focus. This narrative sprawl can slightly dilute its otherwise powerful storytelling. Still, Släpp taget resonates through its honesty and compelling portrayal of human connections, making it a poignant cinematic experience. A rare gem that captures the heart, even if it reaches for too much.
