Les Enquêtes du département V : promesse

I looked forward to see this movie. Hoever I was soon felt let down. Ulrich Thomsen is one of my favoirte actors is feels plays more confused than in character. The person playing assad is like a meaningless background character in the book is interesting and has humour. Assad in the moive adds nothing to the movie and is completely emotionless not even a camal joke. I guess the creators thught that humour was lame and did not want it. Rose in the book was also a bit wierd and interesting. In the movie is she is also very dull.

Without any spoilers the plot feels forced.

Also the sex scenes feels like they hold back go all in if you include it.

All in all I don't understand if Jussi Adler Olsen thought it was better to use those actors than Lie Kaas they had humour that could lift the story. But this is not the high standard it could be.

No pun intended - many ways to interpret it - I am going to go with one explanation for you ... I really do miss the duo that was responsible for the author (of this and the previous movies) to make them successful ... I assume this was a novel too first. I have not read any of them, but this kind of leaves me similarly cold as the one before.

Don't get it twisted, the movie (and the one before that, where we got the cut and didn't get our crime fighting duo) are good movies overall. Especially if you are into crime movies ... into the drama, but also the suspense and the guessing game ... who done it and all that. And where are they ... so there are things to love ... question is: are they enough for you? You be the judge (hopefully not jury and executioner as well - no pun intended)

Once again, the lead actors in the movie have been replaced with some new ones. Rose has become more hardcore and less charming. Not sure if it's part of wokeism.

The movie contains a completely irrelevant scene where a janitor harasses Rose and she practically rips his balls off. The scene has nothing to do with anything.

This movie is the worst in the Department Q series. I miss more twists and surprises, and I miss more investigative work in the film. If this is the standard for the upcoming Department Q films, then I won't be looking forward to the next ones in the series.

"Fasandræberne" is still the best Department Q film.

Let's face it...Department Q died when they changed the cast after the fourth movie. This latest movie just doesn't change that fact. I am very disappointed! The plot is thin and the excitement and humor is absent. I was not entertained and I have no idea where Carl Moerch is in the story. It's more about Rose than about Carl. Assad is a weak sidekick.

To me it looks like a low budget film. But first of all the biggest problem is the cast. Apparently the producers know this since they changed the cast for both Rose and Assad since the last movie.

Bring back Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Fares Fares og Johannes Louise Schmidt. They are in another league.

Even though it wasn't as bad as the Marco Effect, which was a dumpster fire of a movie! It's like they don't know how to make a good movie! They're messy and full of side stories that go no where or does absolutely nothing for the story! This one was worse than all the old movies in the series but okay until the final act where alot happens just to end the movie... Leaving the viewer with a bad taste! This wasn't a good movie, yet it had potential they just didn't do anything with it! It started of strong and then lost its way somewhere around the middle and the ending just sucks!!! They have ruined a good series!
