Theo van Gogh is a very controversial character in Holland, not always to be taken seriously. As a director he's a lot more serious.

I think this is a really good Dutch movie. About half of it is spoken in English, very well too especially if you compare it to The Delivery, another Dutch thriller. The plot is intriguing and very surprising in the end. Acting is very good as well by the Dutch and the English cast.

This makes it enjoyable even if you're not a Dutch viewer. 8 out of 10.

I had never seen a movie by Theo van Gogh before, and didn't care much for the person, but I must say he has made a great movie.

Although this picture runs for about 2 hours, it never gets dull because of the ingenious plot. On several occasions, Theo makes you re-organize your assumptions about who-did-what. The interesting camera work makes this movie a pleasure to watch.

The tempo in this movie is not too high, yet smooth and never boring. Not until after the credits, I really understood the complete movie and it stayed in my mind for days after.

I'd give it an 8 out of 10.

Even after multiple viewings and over 20 years after it was released this remains a solid story, one of Van Gogh's best movies. In fact the story is so complex that more than one viewing will make you appreciate it even more. The cast is in great form, with nice supporting roles. Although seemingly moving rather slow in the first half, this is the part where you have to pay attention to get the rewards in the second hour. Beautifully shot and well directed this is easily one of my favourite Dutch movies ever made.
