In a way, it's very funny to watch a completely amateur film that is cringe from start to finish, and which contains the worst acting I've ever seen in a full feature film, which apparently even went to the trouble of making a movie poster. But on the other hand, I can't in good conscience recommend it in any way.
The cameraman seems to know what he's doing, and they also manage to record the sound at an acceptable level, even though the sound universe as a whole is also amateurish. Apart from that, I can't point to anything positive. This despite the fact that I marginally laughed at two jokes along the way.
Anyway - did I mention that the acting is the worst ever?

This is the worst Danish movie I've seen in quite a while. Not because it in any way took issue with anything I disagree with, only for being perfectly boring.
It seemed to me to be only a commercial for Copenhagen, since there were a lot of beautiful shots of most of the sites in the city.
It isn't precisely the essence of a road movie since there was very little car travelling, but still it was sort of a road movie with a very weak (almost non-existing) storyline, poor attempts of bad jokes, bad acting from everyone, a gallery where you never got to understand the girls role in the movie other than, hey, it's 2024, we can't make a movie without a girl in big role.
The only reason this doesn't get one star from me is the camera work. Kind of reminded me of "Badehotellet" with the very glittering images most of the time out side in the sun.

I watched this movie with my 14 year old son and none of us understood this movie.
I loved the acting. Michael Fassbender was excellent and I liked that the fighting scenes were more realistic than much of what you see these days in movies.
I also have to hand it to the beauty of the cinematograhy.
But it all can't make up for the fact that neither me or my son ever understood what was going on.
"Who's that guy?"
"Why is he in that house now?"
"Why does she have to underline, that she is not an evil person?" "Is she evil?" "Why'd he have to kill her?"
Plenty more questions, but I won't bore you with them. I can only tell you, none of them were answered. Not even the final plot made a shadow of sense to anything.
I remember I sort of had the same feeling 30 years ago when I saw Pulp Fiction the first time. I had no idea what just happens, which is even weird to write, since I love that movie now.
Maybe I have to see this a few more times, but where Pulp Fiction actually made some sense along the way (even the first time) and totally redeemed itself the second time I saw it (and the third and the fourth and so on...), this movie doesn't even intice me to see it again. There is nothing there, that I want to have answered by seeing it again. Pulp Fiction had ounces of that.

I so, so enjoyed this movie. Al Pacino is absolutely charming and so are everyone else in this perfectly instructed and perfectly cast little movie pearl. Even the child actress is convincing and perfectly adorable. I more or less watched the movie per accident, but I enjoyed every moment. A big smile on my face for most of the movie. I hadn't heard of the movie before and I still don't know Steve Tilston, but in this case I didn't need to know about the person it's all about, because the movie is so charming. The dialogue and the ping pong between Pacino and the other cast members is amazing. Especially with Annette Bening. Bening absolutely swipes me of my feet, by the way... Thank you very much for this little surprise!
Now I'm no movie maker and this is only my second review so I can't claim to be a good critique either, but I can't recommend watching this movie at all. One of the story lines seems relevant these days; How to behave yourself online, but the rest of this is a complete waste of time. The acting is the worse I have seen in many years in a "serious" movie. I blame both the instructor and the cast themselves. Most are relatively new at this and even though one or two of them showed glimpes of hope in one or two scenes, most of the scenes were horrible when it comes to the acting and the instructional work. You don't act well just because you can produce a tear in the right moment. The lines were delivered with robotics, the reactions to most of the lines were automatic and extremely unreliable. You never doubted any lines to be scripted and felt that the script was just read out loud. It honestly looks as though there were no instructions of the actors inbetween takes, just read your lines perfectly and let's go to the next scene. So why not 1 star? Well, I actually felt the camera work and scenery was fine and the settings in general good. So the quality of the techinical stuff was up to what I would call Netflix level, but not the rest.
