En chance til

A very good movie. Powerful and unsettling. Very clever plot and great cast makes this an absorbing watch. Any spoilers will definitely spoil this movie so be very careful to avoid them in other reviews.

The moral dilemmas presented here are deep and disturbing. That said, very well handled as one would expect from the Danes.

Highly recommended.

To say much about the plot of Suzanne Bier's film about parenthood would be to risk depriving it of its power - the less you know going in, the better. The film is a succession of well-timed punches to the gut, and the cast is good enough to make the characters' difficult choices understandable. Nikolaj Coaster-Waldau carries a lot of the weight of the film, but he's well-supported - May Andersen is impressive as Sanne in her first acting role, and Bier's previous collaborator Nikolaj Lie Kaas does well to avoid making his character a one-dimensional.

Not an easy watch by any means, and not an entertainment, but a very well-made and powerful social drama.

Great drama,thriller, I'm finding that these foreign films are so well crafted,...this is a hidden gem for sure.....

Wow it was just one deep, sad thing after another. But a well acted good movie. Cross between a thriller and drama, don't watch it if you can't deal with bad things happening to babies.

I think one of the main reasons this film really works is the strong performances from Nicolai Coaster-Waldau, Ulrich Thomsen and Maria Bonnevie. Nicolay Coaster-Waldau plays a husband and a father, Bonnivie his wife. The film give an example of how a "perfect life", suddenly can turn into a living nightmare. And how the wrong choices can be devastating for everyone involved. The couple really pull it off in this film. Without their strong presence and convincing characters, the film would not been as good as it actually is. They make it a strong and powerful drama. Othervise the story in the film is very simple, and I must admit, not the strongest and most interesting. It is too straight forward, with few surprises. But the actors make it worth Your while to watch it, and they manage to lift this drama. (Sorry about my English)
