Les Enquêtes du département V: L'effet papillon

They completely ruined the franchise with this recasting. So sad, was the most promising Danish movie franchise we've seen I a long time.

This is what happens when authors start to take control of movie sets!!!

I think it was a very bad idea to give the script to two writers who have only written comedies and dramas. It lacks the mystical tension that the previous four films had. It also didn't help the film that the director was also making his first thriller. He also brought in the drama clichés from his previous films.

Unfortunately, it is the writers' fault for neglecting the previously strong supporting characters and giving them very weak roles, leaving the characters of Assad and Rose completely out of focus. Moreover, the new actors tried to mould the characters on their own and did not really take anything from the last four films. It's as if each character is a different person, but they all go by the same name.

The focus of the investigation is also different and the final solution, like in a Holliwoody film, suddenly falls into your lap.

Unfortunately, this time it is a shambles.

I made the mistake to rewatch the older ones in this series leading up to the premiere of the newest installment, only to confirm how much better the old ones are, and how boring and disappointing this new one is.

They should have made it with the old cast that we have come to love and associate with this series, or have not made it at all........well, at least make it as an individual movie with no relations to the others.

I remember when my friend asked me 2/3 into this movie "what is it about, is there a story/plot here?", and I couldn't agree more.

Long and slow paced "story" with plot holes and then a rapid ending out of nowhere with the audience left with plenty to desire.

I'm really good at lowering my expectations, but this one didn't deliver at all.

I was expecting way too much from this movie and it didn't live up to any of my expectations.

The new cast is boring, dull and flat... We never get a real connection and the plotline could've been explained and solved in about half an hour.

What a disappointment.

Previous 4 movies are masterpieces. What happen to this movie. I was really disappointed. Remake this please. Worst movie of Department Q movie series.
