I Kina spiser de hunde

If you liked Pusher you'll love I Kina Spiser De Hunde.Pusher was hard-hitting,realistic look at pushers life in the city of Copenhagen while this one is more of a action/drama/comedy but impressive and funny. Kim Bodnia is as great as always,Dejan Cukic delivers good performance as his brother and the rest of the cast is great. A lot of stuff is happening in this one and every situation is funnier than the previous.I loved it and I have seen it at least as many times as Pusher.It is more enjoyable,with more interesting characters (Vuk alone is worth the price of the film) and there's always something happening. If you like this one,don't miss Gamle Mænd I Nye Biler (sequel).Not as funny,not as entertaining but definitely worth a look.

This is an entertaining crime comedy with an all-star Danish cast (Kim Bodnia, Dejan Cukic, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Trine Dyrholm, Jesper Christensen and many others) and a plotline reminiscing of films such as ''The Snatch'',''Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels'' or ''RocknRolla'', but retaining the special Nordic characteristics in crime fiction. The story revolves around the relationship between two brothers (played by Cukic and Bodnia), having totally different personalities and character traits from one another. This is a film that contains many funny -even sometimes hilarious- dialogue and scenes and it can be categorized into the ''black comedy'' genre. The acting is great, the action scenes are well-shot and overall ''In China They Eat Dogs'' is a movie that can be compared with the more expensive English and American productions. Here, we meet again the actor who impersonated Radovan in the ''Pusher'' trilogy by Nicolas Winding Refn, named Slavko Labovic in an almost identical role. The main antagonist in the film is the Serbian mafia, as usual in Scandinavian crime fiction books and tv productions, and Labovic is a kind of top henchman for the Serbs. In my opinion, this is a film that will be highly appreciated by the -many- fans of Danish cinema and Scandinavian crime film productions in general.

Hit action comedy from celebrated writer Anders Thomas Jensen and director (and former stuntman) Lasse Spang Olsen. Put-upon Arvid is left by his girlfriend, and when he manages to foil a bank robbery with a squash racket, his life goes from bad to worse, getting involved with hardened criminal brother Harald (the excellent Kim Bodnia, tough and hilariously deadpan). Perhaps the highest body count of a Danish movie ever (Arvid accidentally wastes entire rockband Red Warszawa with a machine gun), film suffers from occasional amateurish stunts, but is peppered with Jensen´s terrific dialogue, and a what-me-worry approach that is very rare among Danish filmmakers. Nikolaj Lie Kaas and Tomas Villum Jensen make a great comedic duo as the reluctant body disposers, who just want to be cooks. Framed by a strange supernatural story that is so politically incorrect that you can´t help but laugh out loud. *** (of ****)

I was wondering why this movie just got a 7.something - saw the very first comments on this and got kind of angry. What the heck went wrong with you guys? Why need to compare this masterpiece by a boring Tarantino? Seems the director got some jealous friends. But never-mind, its nearly 10 years ago.

The Main-characters: Arvid, Harald, Vuk and the cooks went out to make danish movies famous, and thats what just happened: Im going to watch them all.

Take it as it comes: this movie is simply a must - great cast and an awesome dirty story. This one belongs into the the all-time 250 hall.

First time you'll laugh, second time you'll explore all the fine acting, finally and third time, you'll become jealous about killing a rock'n roll-band. Who has never dreamed about it ;)

... they would have apparently created a similar works, at least in their youth. Also here, a series of crazy and violent events with "ordinary" and "mad" people involved are triggered by a small short-term event. The things will never be the same and all characters have to review their values, approaches and problem-solving methods. Solutions are often damaging and/or fatal, although the outcome is not anticipated (however, using a narrator and its role in the very ending are witty and distinct). The cast is also strong and catchy, Kim Bodnia and Nikolaj Lie Kaas, above all; the latter's recurring line "We are only cooks!" makes you always giggle.

The only question I wanted to raise throughout the film: what about police, journalists - or sometimes even witnesses? So many tough-rough acts and no response from them at all?

Still, recommended if you like twisted action comedies with fine performances.
