While the acting is top-notch, the real star of the film is the script.

Mikkelsen and Kaas are up to the demands of their roles, revealing impressive range and skill.

Pitch-perfect performances bring it all home, particularly that of Danish leading man Mikkelsen.

Jensen's tone is admirably dry, and the film offers its pleasures through small, writerly details.

Will be either a turn-on or turn-off, depending on one's sense of humor.

The two leads capably humanize an overdetermined screenplay that often fumbles with bludgeoning symbolism and rank sentimentality.

It's the sick humor that's most appealing about this odd little Danish film.

A movie in search of a theme. Svend and Bjarne aren't bad or uninteresting characters, and certainly the two talented actors playing them are inherently watchable. But there's too little meat on these bones.

Should have been either darker or funnier. Or both.

A flawed black comedy about two buddies who open a butcher's shop in a small Danish town.
