I Kina spiser de hunde

I am always a bit shy when it comes to laughing out loud, especially when i'm alone, but this movie has almost therapeutical qualities. In the beginning i was a bit astonished about the sheer and unexpected brutality that occurs quite sudden after a very soft entry. But pretty soon i realised the twinkling in the author's eye, and i started to laugh 'til i almost fainted. The dialogues are captivating, the characters convincingly weird and Arvid's decline follows some unforgettable kind of crude and funny "inevitabilism". This is the funniest actioncomedy i've seen for years. Refreshingly different, astoundingly perfect. A true recommendation not only for friends of the genre. I will buy it on Video or DVD, my highest private ranking.

... 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.

This is one of the greatest danish action movies ever! The characters are both cool and funny (especially the two chefs) some of the humour you probably have to be danish to understand, but the action is international. This is a movie that showes that Denmark can kick butt in the action genre. SEE IT - and the sequel!

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.

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 ;)
